Clearly, I am only using this blog to document my baby. Because that is mostly what my life is made up of presently. Or at least the only thing I take pictures of. I have thoughts about other aspects of womanhood/motherhood that I'd like to write down and maybe I will, but this is about all I can get myself motivated to do. And because she's the first and I want to remember these things for at least one child of mine....
Marjorie at 3 months:
-still in 0-3 month clothes, I think maybe in a few more weeks we might be moving up, but she is a tiny little thing!
-much smoother in her movements, but still a bit jerky
-just started grabbing and being able to hold on to things for a little bit--her lovey or her links
-can pull those items up to her mouth (kind of) and gum on them a little bit, but it does take an awful lot of concentration
-is still trying very hard to find her thumb and still adamantly refuses to use a binky
-less gassy, but when she is gassy, gripe water doesn't seem to have the same instantly soothing effect it once had
-getting much better at burping (or mommy is getting better at burping) which probably helps with the gassiness
-ridiculously happy when she wakes up in the morning. She will laugh and talk away in her crib, kicking her legs up an down in her swaddle until someone picks her up. She can make a whole lot of noise kicking her legs down on the mattress!
-hated the care seat something fierce when we first got to CA but, she doesn't seem to hate it as much now. However, she will definitely not just stay asleep in it or hang out in it, if she's not in the car, she will let you know she is not pleased
-went through a growth spurt and was waking up once in the night again, but has returned to one dream feed between 10-11pm (when I go to sleep) and then sleeping until any where between 6 and 8am (I prefer the 8am wake ups)
-has begun taaaaaalking. She will lay there and gabble away for 15+ minutes when she's in a good mood
-in the last few days has hung out on her tummy for a few minutes before getting angry. This is much improved from being placed on her tummy and screaming within 30 seconds. She is also lifting her head up so high! But no rolling over yet
Mommy at 3 months:
-went off dairy to see if that would help with M's fussiness. So far it does seem to help, but I think she might have silent reflux as well. That will be a conversation with the doctor once we get back to NYC.
-loves how interactive Miss Marjorie is getting, it's nice to have some positive reinforcement to the ridiculous things I do
-slightly missing being at work, but not really. I am incredibly grateful I don't have to go back right now, right when she's starting to get a little fun
-thoroughly enjoying being at home in California with friends and family, but missing mommy friends in NYC
And now because I'm ridiculous and this blog has become my journal and it's an easy way to share pictures of my girl with my whole family (and I will never explain myself again)... a billion photos.
