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.

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...

One Month Birthday

Little miss is one month old today!! And not to be a overly biased mommy, but she is very advanced for her age, hitting milestone after milestone early :D She can: Hold her head up by herself Make "ah" sounds Pay attention to a rattle Focus on faces Smile spontaneously Bring her hands to her mouth Hold her head up on her tummy Smile when she thinks something's funny All in all, just working her precious way farther into our hearts. We love our girl!!!

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...
