3 Months 2 Weeks

Oh that girl is awesome! She loves playing with her grandma Wendy at school. She is sticking out her tough lots and it's so cute. Evey is getting more sturdy sitting and standing I love slinging her to me and taking her everywhere we go. Mom and dad saw Harry Potter while Aunt Ann Baun baby sat for us it was really fun. Evey is still not taking the bottle but we will try every day or so. Mom is helping with Awakening and staying over night at the church on February so Evey will have to take a bottle then but she will be on cereal and just starting baby food then so it will be fine, I'm sure.

3 Months 1 Week

Mom and Dad got a fun date night and Evey had a sitter (AJ Mildenberg) it was so nice to have dinner with Shawn and have his full attention. Evey is doing lots of great things, she like to sit upright so the Bumbo is great, she can almost hold herself up. Her neck is very strong and she is very cute.

We took her to Target this weekend and I used the sling she loved looking at all the colors and enjoyed her time strapped to mommy! I found some cloths on Craigslist but the cloths were alot of spring/summer I thought it was more winter stuff but we'll make it work. They are really cute things.

Three Months!

Evey is doing awesome! She is such a happy baby girl very alert and likes to smile. Shawn said the other day when she laughs it's like heaven, he is so right.
I'm trying different swaddlers she didn't like the woombie but maybe I bought it too big, I just got the Miracle blanket so her hands will be at her side so a position she likes them at better, so I'm hoping to get lots of sleep tonight! We'll see. But I'm not sure how much longer we will be swaddling because she will be rolling soon. She goes to bed between 8-9 after a nap :) and then wakes around 1 and again around 5. I'm hoping that she can go 6hrs at some point so I can sleep.
Whoever invented daylight savings didn't have children I'm curious to see how her sleep patterns will adapt. We are going to MI for Thanksgiving so we got a swing off Craigslist for Grandmas house, so Evey can sleep there during the day time.

2 Months 3 Weeks

Happy Halloween!

We enjoyed an awesome party as the star wars family. Evey is laughing from time to time with Daddys help and she did so good at the late night halloween party she did grab a quick nap on Mr.Rodgers and she got to trick or treat the next day to a few neighbors homes. So fun!

10 weeks

She is a very good girl :)
Grandma says she puts legs up to get changed.
Starting to bat at objects on purpose.

Sleeps very well, longest ever 9 hours! mom work up sore and full and tired. Cluster feeding is the key! Get her good and full before bed time.

Discovering her hands, sucking on them, Seeing them, moving them.
Visiting people and cooing, smiling, talking to her visitors.
Falls asleep in the car and swing, and in your arms that's the best.

Has to be her idea to nurse no forcing it mom! Have gone a few days with out the shield, my nipples are sore but it's worth having one less thing to worry about.

I put up a video of her sucking her fingers on FB it was so loud to hear her suck! Got lots of responses on thumb sucking! Got to love unsolicited responses.
