3 Months Old

This little bathing beauty turns 3 months old today! I cannot believe how fast she is growing up. Sweet Averly, you light up my life! You make every day so great & as much as I hate to leave you to go to work, I love the huge smiles I get when I see you again. Morning time is another one of my favorites. I get that big, bright smile & it is a perfect start to the day. You are such a well-behaved baby. The only time we hear a peep out of you is if you are hungry or ready to go to sleep & can’t. You continuously sleep 10-11 hours at night. Praise the Lord! You have the sweetest, most kissable cheeks & I take full advantage of that, giving you tons & tons of kisses all day! You are really “talking” big now & had a full out conversation for a good 15 minutes with Dada on Sunday. The only thing that ended it was you spitting up all over his belly. Twice. You have the softest feet & I could just rub them all day long. And I pretty much do because I rub them every time you eat. Your feet & your head. But that puts you to sleep & then you don’t get enough to eat, but I just can’t help myself. You are so cuddly & nuzzle your cheek up against mine when I’m holding you. I wish time would stop or at least slow down, but since it won’t I try to soak every minute all in. You are wearing mostly 3 months size clothes, but have a couple things that are 3-6 months. Still a little big though. I just recently bought size 2 diapers for you & they fit great but your 1-2 still fit fine too. Your hair grows so much every day. Literally! Every morning it is a little longer & a little fuller where it fell out before. Someone even said you had lots of body in your hair! I hope it stays that way & doesn’t get like Mama’s because I have the flattest, most non-volumized hair ever. It still looks like it may want to curl a little too. Guess we'll have to wait a while for it to be long enough to tell. For some reason unbeknownst to me, you actually enjoy my horrible singing. You get quiet & stare at me like you want me to keep going. So sweet. As soon as you get in your car seat you put the little strap protector doggies in your mouth & suck on them. You love those little things! And as always, you are such an angel baby.

You stayed with your "Aunt Kelly" yesterday & today while Mama was at work since your grandparents are on vacation. She said you did great & were so good for her! This was the first time you or Riley has stayed with anyone besides a family member for the whole day! (Riley stayed with my sister, in case you were wondering. She was a little nervous about keeping both of them so Averly went to my friend's house.)

Happy 3 Months Sugar Poo! I love you more than you'll ever know!!

Also, I finally got back into my pre-pregnancy pants last week! I guess I should've included that in my "So How's Mama Doing?" post, but I was too busy at the time missing my babies to think about it. I still have a ways to go, but am pretty excited about wearing normal clothes again.
