Ellie is 3 months!

Well, Ellie is officially 3 months old now, and I can't believe it! Time has seriously FLOWN by! She is just the cutest thing ever, and I am having so much fun with her. I was worried about being a stay at home mom at first. I have been working ever since we've been married, and I was a little unsure how I'd do at home all day. Well, it turns out that I LOVE it, and couldn't ask for a better job. Although there are days where I don't shower 'til 4 or don't get out of the house all day, it is THE most rewarding job I could ever have, and I am so thankful that I can be home with my baby!

Here are a few milestones Ellie has come across lately:

5 weeks- started smiling- not just in her sleep but actual eye contact smiling. SO CUTE!!

10-11 weeks: started sleeping THRU THE NIGHT!!! (knock on wood, let's hope it lasts!!) She goes down for the night between 10- 10:30 and sleeps until 7 or even 8 sometimes! It is seriously amazing to be able to go to bed at night and not wake up until the morning.

10 weeks(ish:) discovered her hands, and is OBSESSED with them. She is constantly sucking on them and has found her thumb a few times as well. She started to grab things and loves to suck on her minky blankey.

13 weeks: (today actually) she laughed for the first time! It was so cute. You can play with her and tickle her tummy and she will smile and laugh. It's so darn cute.

She loves bath time. She will just sit there and smile at you the whole time. If the water is extra warm, she will pee as soon as you put her in, it never fails. You can tell she's peeing because she makes a little grunting noise and grins a little...haha sorry if that's TMI!!!! :)

She sleeps SO good in her car seat. Better than her crib! She loves her car seat.

She is mesmerized by the T.V.

She loves to go on walks in her stroller.

She loves when we sing to her, she'll just sit and look at you and smile, it's so cute.

She gets so excited in the morning when I go to get her up. As soon as she sees me she puts her little hands up by her face and squeals and smiles so big!!


She is growing and changing everyday. It is so fun to watch her grow, but a little sad at the same time. I can't even remember what life was like before her. She has been such an incredible blessing in our lives and we love her SO much. :)
