Three Month Birthday

Somebody was three months old yesterday!

It's so exciting to see her doing more every day, and being more deliberate in her movements.

She now can:

Roll over

Laugh

Squeal and shriek

Reach for things

Hold her back and head steady when set upright

Babble

Turn when she hears a voice

Watch TV :P

Put things in her mouth

Put quite a lot of weight on her legs

She weighs 14 pounds, is 25 inches long, and LOVES airplane rides on my knees. She's also in the middle of her first cold, but she's taking it like a little trouper.

I decided to practice using the baby thermometer (underarm) and either there's something terribly wrong with the baby, or the thermometer, because my little girl had a temperature of 95*. I checked mine to compare, and was about a degree warmer. I know I always measure colder, but not that cold! It seemed to be working later that evening, though, showing Caleb to be 98 and me 97.

Jaye L. Knight blog tour

We have company today!! Jaye L. Knight of jayelknight.com will be answering some questions, and has allowed me to share an excerpt of her newest book, Samara's Peril with you. Samara's Peril is the third book in her Ilyon Chronicles series. Hi Mary! Here are my answers for the interview! :) Hello, it's exciting to have a real live author with us today! This lovely young lady wrote the book "Samara's Peril", and is taking a blog tour for a couple weeks. I'll add a book excerpt at the end of this post, hopefully you'll like it so much that you buy her book :) Thank you so much for hosting me here! :) I'm trying not to ask you the questions everyone probably asks you, but I probably will. What's your most frequent question? Do you have a stock answer for it, or do you give different ones every time? Some of my most frequent questions are writing advice or where the inspiration for Ilyon Chronicles came from. Ther...

Random 6 o'clock Blog Post

Here I am at six in the morning, writing instead of sleeping. I've had a busy, fun, and productive week! I got quite a bit of driving in, even a little practice on wet roads, and drove somewhere I haven't driven before. I took the baby to see her great aunt Wilma, our visit was too short, but I hope we can go back next week. My plan was to drive to Wilma's, then church, then home, but it POURED as we were about to leave her house, so Garrett's dad drove to church. I never thought I'd be the weird mom at church until we started homeschooling, but people already know I'm different. I guess you can't hide the weird!! Haha! I let a lady at church hold Anna, and when she went to her seat with the baby, I followed her. She thought it was pretty strange, but I'm going to be where my baby's at, no matter who holds her. I so love watching the older ladies at church hold her and enjoy her. There are so few babies to enjoy. Most of them have 2 or 3 grandch...

Four Months Old!

Yep, you'll still be seeing blog posts about my child monthly for a looooong time! Get used to it ;) So, four months old today! And at the advanced age of 18 weeks, she can: Laugh out loud Roll over both ways Put all her weight on her legs Sit up propped on her hands Reach for things she wants Hold her feet and try to eat them She's in 6 month clothes at 16 pounds and 26 1/2 inches. Sadly, she has begun to outgrow many of the small clothes that were gifted to us. So I bought her some new clothes, including this dress Which she was fascinated by My very lady-like daughter in her pretty new dress I did get some good pictures though, after Daddy came to make her laugh. And laugh she did!! And here's her hair at four months. Eek, it's getting so long! Mommy can hardly wait to fix it up!!

And Then There Were Four
