3 month birthday!!!

Our baby girl is 3 months old already!!!!!!! Here are some of the facts I've accumulated! Most of it is still the same from the last post... with a few additions!

• She has discovered some of the toys on her activity gym, she will watch it and use her hand to hit it. its been amazing to watch. Right now she has just been using her left hand... wonder if she'll be left handed?
• She is quite the smiler! We usually don't have to work too hard to get a big smile!
• Ave has a pretty good routine these days. she's on a 3 hour schedule; she wakes up, eats, plays (total of about an hour), naps for 2 (although that isn't continuous, see next pt), then the cycle repeats!
• She still has a hard time with her naps. She goes down almost without a fuss and will sleep for about 40-50 minutes then she wakes up. Usually, with the help of the paci she will go back to sleep but it can take 20-30 minutes!
• Ave likes to suck on her hand but hasn't figured out how to put her fingers in her mouth yet. I'm hoping she won't find her thumb.... but we'll see
• Avery now sleeps in her crib without the travel bed. I finally took it out, I think I kept it in more for myself than for her! Now she really sleeps like a big girl... :(

• She likes to go for walks but still sleeps for the most part
• Her eyes have turned dark blue, they were a blue/hazel at birth.
• She is losing some of her hair... getting a bit of a receeding hairline! She also has a bald spot on the back of her head, from turning her head back and forth in her crib! There is NO hair on that spot!
• She has had some dry skin on her face, but after many different creams I think its finally getting better! just took some extra virgin olive oil!! ;)
• Avery had her first cold just after her 3 month birthday! she made it 3 months without getting sick! Chris had it first, about a week later I got sick and then she caught it 2 days after me. We were lucky, she only had one rough night, and didn't get fully congested. Just runny nose and a little cough. I still got some smiles even while she was sick.

We are looking forward to whats in store for next month!!!

here is her 3 month pics;

Check out that laugh!!!!
