3 months old

The Lola Cate is 3 months old. She is so fun now. She smiles and interacts with us and loves to talk! She is still a very good baby. At night she will wake around 4:30/5:00 to eat and then she goes back to sleep until around 8:30. So she's a great sleeper. She is still in the basinett beside me at night but I plan to transition her to her crib in the next two weeks. She does still like to be swaddled and she still does not like pacifiers. Car rides are a little better, she doesn't cry as much when she is in her car seat. She has started paying attention to toys and has kind of found her hands. I mean kind of because she holds her hands together, plays with her ear, sucks her fingers, etc but hasn't really discovered what they are or what they are for. She has shown signs of reaching towards toys but hasn't mastered it. She seems interested in her feet, trying to raise her head in her bouncy seats so she can see them. Mommy is still her favorite person but she is more open to others now. Loves the ceiling fan. Still nurses really well. She is wearing 3-6 month clothing but can still fit into some of her smaller dresses. I am able to get a tiny hair bow into her hair now, the kind with a butterfly clip so I've made one in every color. :) Here are some pictures this month.

Sleeping a little more but some wake ups at night

Sleeps in pack n play for Anny during weekdays for naps but not in crib for mommy on weekends

Size 6 month clothes (some 9 months)

Beautiful smiles and silent giggles

 reaching for things and sometimes grasping them! 

He is very intrigued by his feet! But not yet grabbing hold of them. 

The Bumbo! He wants to see everything! 

Big brothers playing with baby toys. 

Chewing on his hands! I'm wondering if he is teething...he is chewing in hands and has begun drooling...

Talking up a storm! He loves to talk and to be spoken to. 

Sweet outfit made by my mom. Love it!!!! Combines my obsession with monogram with times less smocking.
