3 Months!

I cannot believe you are three months old!!! It's been a crazy whirlwind, but I'm so thankful it exists.

You have changed so much in the three months we've had you home. You are starting to laugh!!! It's more like coughing while you're smiling, but I'm pretty sure that constitutes a laugh!!!

I want to write down all the things I remember that were so cute that you're growing out of, because it seems to be going so quickly!!!

First off, I remember when we brought you home and you would make this "O" face! You'd pucker your lips into an "oooo" really tight, and then look around. It was absolutely too adorable and I wish I had a video of it or at least a photo, as I think you've grown out of it. And it makes me sad that I will never see that cute little face again!

I also remember when we would lay you down anywhere, changing table or otherwise, and you would "startle." You'd throw your little hands and arms above your head and have a furrowed look on your brow. It was the most adorable thing ever!! You rarely do that anymore, and I can see you're growing out of that too!

You used to take naps on the ottoman and we would lose you under the blankets and clothes. Now, you fit perfectly on the ottoman, and you're so LONG! I think you're going to be pretty tall!

It's so funny to keep putting the same clothes on you only to see what you are starting to genuinely grow out of. Sure, as a newborn, you weren't really in newborn clothes that long, but we also didn't have very many newborn clothes. So now that you're growing out of those 0-3 month clothes, it makes my heart a little sad to see so many of my "favorite" outfits not fit you anymore.

Lastly, it's so funny to see how big you're getting in your car seat. Gone is the head rest we used for you as a newborn. Soon, we'll need to buy a new baby seat for you to fit in.

Until then, I'm cherishing these memories. You're so special to me. I love you so much!
