3 months old!

today my beautiful girl is 3 months old!  she grows and changes everyday and it is so fun to watch!  here is what is new in bowie's world...

milestones:

~tracks faces
~coos and smiles all the time
~blows bubbles and tries to blow raspberries
~found her tongue
~loves activity mat and tummy time
~not a fan of naps during the day
~ate 7.5 ounces in one sitting (biggest serving yet, but only happened once)
~in 3 month clothes (and some are getting too tight!)
~in size 2 diapers as of 2 weeks ago
~loves car rides or the stroller to help fall asleep
~makes funny faces back at daddy
~is smiling back at familiar faces on video chat
~using a sleep suit at bed time to help with the startle reflex
~getting too big to swaddle
~sleeping in nursery at night time since about 2 months old!  although we have tin foil and black out curtains to help keep it dark during these long summer nights
~discovered the TV
~drooling a lot!!!
~hold her head up really well




mommy milestones:

~still breast feeding, although not exclusively (but about 75%-80%).  using a combination of breast feeding, pumping, donor milk and formula to supplement
~took her to olympia by myself to meet a friend.  this was a 50 mile drive, the farthest we have been away from jarad on our own!
~making mommy friends and enjoying weekly play dates!
~started running again, ran 1.5 miles for the first time since becoming pregnant and it felt great!
~getting into a bed time routine at night and getting more sleep!  last night she slept for 6 hours and then woke up to feed and went back to bed for another 4 hours!  this was a first for us and hopefully something that will stick!
