We LOVE .....

this baby!!!!!

3 Months Old

This little girl is growing so fast! Here are some updates about our Sophie girl...

*She naps regularly during the day... a solid two hour morning nap and about one hour naps throughout the rest of the day.
*She is beginning to sleep through the night. On Sunday, August 22nd, she slept through the whole night and I had to wake her up for her early morning feeding. Every other night she wakes up a couple times for me to put her paci back into her mouth and re-swaddle her.

*She sits for a few seconds at a time
*She kicks and talks up a storm when she is on her stomach. She pushes up a bit and has even rolled from her tummy to her back a couple times.
*She likes to play with her toys. It's fun to watch her focus in on something and grab for it. Especially her baby-doll!

*Sophie is pretty easy going and happy. Although, when she wants something she will definitely make it known!
*When she was born we always held her during her naps. Since Josh has gone back to school I have been putting her down for each nap and having her sleep in her crib. Most of the time she does really well but other times she prefers the swing or her lamb chair.
*She has been drooling a lot lately and putting everything into her mouth. She loves her paci, teething rings, and her pointer finger.
*When we got on outings she does really well. She loves to study the world around her!
*We thought her eyes might be blue but they are starting to stay a BEAUTIFUL hazel color.
*She loves her baths... they are so relaxing to her!

Dancer or Soccer Player?

I vote DANCER!!! Sophie loves to kick, kick, KICK! Especially her daddy's face because of his scruffy beard on the days he doesn't shave.

2 Things...

1. So for the past month or so Sophie has been on a great schedule where she eats at 9, goes to bed at 10 and wakes up around 3:30 or 4:00 for her morning feed. We had been so proud of our little 8- 11 week old as she was able to skip her middle of the night feeding. Then on Friday night, Sophie ate at 9 and was passed out by 9:30. We were a little worried that she might wake up in the middle of the night... but she didnt! Instead she slept all the way through to her 6:00 a.m. feeding! A whole 8 and a half hours between feedings! Saturday night didn't go the same way BUT last night she made it through the night again!!!! I only had to wake up a couple times to put her paci back into her mouth and she did the rest! Whoo Hooo!!

2. Saturday afternoon (8/14), little miss Sophie rolled over from her belly to her back! She hasn't done it again and it is okay by me. There is no need to rush her into growing up any faster than she already is.

Happy 1st Birthday Aiden!

We love you Aiden Roy!
