3 Months Old

Aubrey Nicole Steck you are 3 months old!!

You are 13 lbs 2 oz and 23 1/4 inches long (unofficially since there wasn't a checkup this month).  You wear size 1 and 2 diapers and 3 month, 3-6 month and even some 6 month clothes.  You wear size 2 diapers on the days I think you're going to poo.  Now that we've switched to all formula you think that should be an every 3 day occurrence and then ruin whatever outfit you are wearing.  Once we finish this last box of size 1s we'll move up fully to size 2.

Things you have learned/can do now:
  - You have slept through the night for almost 2 weeks except you have been on a sleeping strike for the last 2 days.
  - You love to be carried around facing out and just watching everything going on around you.
  - You can raise your head 90 degrees and your shoulders off the floor. 
  - You love to talk but still just say "ahh" and "ehh".
  - You have decided that you hate being on your tummy on the floor now.  You have (in anger) rolled over twice onto your back but still for the most part need help getting started.
  - You are much more coordinated with your arms/hands now.  You bring them together and then stick them in your mouth.
  - You can hold a rattle and your ball for a little while, but you don't really realize you have them.
  - You like looking in mirrors.
  - You have slept in your bed/laying flat for 4 nights, but you still refuse to lay flat to nap and mostly refuse any afternoon nap unless you're being held.
  - We took the infant sling out of your bathtub and you weren't for sure what to do the first two nights, but the next night you realized what you could do sitting down in the water more and now we'll be putting the sling back on b/c I couldn't keep you on the seat you loved kicking and splashing so much.
  - You think Patty Cake is hilarious but usually only once.

You are so enjoying having Daddy home this month and love playing with him and walking around with him.

Matt went to take some pictures and he was focused on trying to get some without her hands in her mouth.  I asked him what happened to the 3 and he said "yeah I thought something didn't look right."
