3 months old

Dear Elle,

You are now 3 months old.  Well actually you are 3 months and 4 days old.  You are becoming so much fun!  You are certainly a little light in our family and we love you so much.

Your brother is still very enamored with you.  I taught him how to do "patty cake" with you.  He moves your little hands and arm while reciting that poem and you just smile back at him.

You are still very quiet, not much of a talker.  I think your brother makes up for that though.  The only time we really hear your voice is when you are tired or mad.  You like to sleep A LOT!  In fact, you are still only to stay up for about an hour without getting fussy.  You are still napping in your swing and sleeping in your crib at night.  We usually put you in bed by 8pm wide awake.  And you put yourself to sleep.  We are still working on sleeping through the night.  This week you actually had TWO nights where you did not eat from 10:30-6:30!  This momma was so excited!

You are one strong little girl and often like to sit up.  I think that may be why you detest your car seat so.  Although you don't cry as much in it and have actually fallen asleep twice in it.   I think you like to sit up, look around, and see the world.

I love you so much!  Happy 3 Months!!!

Mommy
