Lil' Bit at Three Months
My joyful little Lettie. Unless her tummy is seriously empty or she's hit that exhaustion wall, this girl is all smiles. All she really wants is to lock eyes and grin you into a pile of mushy happiness. She's working on head control, and while I don't worry a ton about tummy time (we do a lot of baby wearing, which is supposed to work the same muscles), she's totally showing off every time we do practice.
She has definitely discovered those dimpled little hands, as well! Most of her happy time is spent clutching them together as tightly as she possibly can hold them, and otherwise, you will probably find them over her eyes when asleep, or sucking on them furiously if she's managed to get them as far as her mouth. Oh, this girl loves to chew/suck on things, and she definitely hits a point where she wants to suck, but doesn't want to nurse, so we've introduced a pacifier for times when that happens, especially in the car (she is not a lover of that carseat, that's for sure... which is funny, since we're about to head on a massive road trip).
She has most definitely turned around her opinion on baths. While her first few baths were very much "get her clean and get out", she is all smiles in her warm water (and I am still madly in love with her post-bath crazy fluffy hairdo).
Her big sister is crazy in love with her, and while affection can get a little rough for our little Lettie, she generally showers Anni with the same sweet smiles she has for everyone else. I love their little powwows on the floor, I'm just in love with our darlings!
Oh, this girl. I'm so glad she's joined our family. The first month felt like it moved really quickly, but this last month has been a little more leisurely. I've felt like I've had a little more time to just look in those sweet eyes and soak in that sweet smile that just lights up her entire face. I am thrilled to keep learning who this little girl is and who she'll grow up to be, but I'm happy to live out the moments as that happens, no hurry here! Happy three months, my girl.

She is SOOOOOOO adorable. It makes me so excited for my daughter.
ReplyDeleteAnd it makes me want to fly you out to take some photos.
Congratulations on your sweet girl! To photograph a sweet little newborn, I would fly just about anywhere (as long as my nursling could come with)!
