three months

In the past month Jilly has become very social- she smiles, laughs, and talks to us all day long.  She also loves music.  When you sing to her she'll smile really big and sometimes sing along, and she loves to sing at the animals that hang from her play mat.  She rolled over for a weekend but then decided she was above that so she won't do it anymore despite all the encouragement we give her.  She is also very strong- when she's lying down on her back she lifts her head up so it looks like she's doing crunches.  She loves to sit up (with us supporting her of course) and look around at everything.  She is such a good baby.  I love that I can take her anywhere without worrying about her crying or being difficult.  Lest you think she's perfect we're still working on the whole sleeping thing.  She still wakes up two times a night to eat and for some reason is under the impression that 4am is an appropriate time to wake up for the day.  We're trying to clear up this misunderstanding and she's slowly getting better. Today she slept all the way until 8am which was heavenly!



I get more joy than I could ever imagine from watching this little girl learn and grow.  We love her more and more every day!

Yeah, there is just no telling babies that it's way too early to get up.

The first night that H slept through the night, I woke up in the morning and seriously felt like a new person.
