Baby C is 3 Months Old, Already!

Where is the time going?
Our little Caroline is Three Months Old!
 Everyday is a delight with this little babe. I'm so lucky to be able to stay home with her and watch her grow. (Thank you, Joseph, for making that possible).
She is so happy, all the time. Rarely does she cry. If she cries there is a reason behind it & she just can't wait anymore so she's letting you know.
You can tell how much she loves her daddy. The way she stares at him is precious. She lights up when she hears is voice and looks around until she finds him. What do I think her favorite time of day is? When Daddy comes home from work and she sees him for the first time. It makes my heart sing to see the bond they have. She is such a daddy's girl.

Fun Facts About Caroline:
  • weighs 12 pounds, give or take a few ounces
  • 23 1/4 inches long
  • aware of what a camera is & will freeze when a camera or a phone is pointed at her
  • pushes up on her hands during tummy time
  • fits in 3 month clothing now but wears 3-6 month pants
  • "talks" constantly
  • puts her entire hand in her mouth to soothe herself
  • sleeps in extremely awkward positions (crooked neck in her swing or sideways, arched back, in a ball in the corner of her co-sleeper) no matter how many times you fix her she gets right back where she wants to be
  • loves her bottle & hates when it's taken away for burping or when she has finished
  • pushes up with her legs into a standing position while being held
  • turns her head from side to side to follow things
  • can sleep for an entire 6 hour car ride during the day
  • will sleep for 8-9 hours at night if we let her (has to be woken up in the morning to eat)
  • kicks off all covers.. guaranteed
    I cannot believe that in just one months time all of these changes have taken place, physically and developmentally.

     I'm completely in love. (typical mom line)
PS: Have you looked at her eyes lately? #gorgeous
