It is a little hard to believe that Morgan will be three months old tomorrow. When I look back on the photos of her first month of life and stare into her eyes today it seems like we have an entirely different baby in our house! The growth, development, and personality that we've witnessed over the last three months leaves us in awe.
Her last appointment with the pediatrician was on 11/24 and at that point she weighed in at 12lbs, 3 oz. and was 22 3/4 inches long with a head circumfrance of 40.4cm. Our growing girl!
We aren't quite at the point of 'rolling over' yet, although she can roll onto her side and back onto her back. In the past couple of weeks her grasp has developed and she loves to hold to her little maraca rattle that daddy got her and has grabbed onto my earrings and gave them a tug more than once.
As for words, she LOVES to babble! Whether it is in her carseat babbling to whoever is sitting next to her or laying/sitting around the house, she has stories to tell! In general she is such an easy, happy baby. We couldn't be luckier in terms of her personality and enjoyment of life.
One of my most recent 'favorites' was waking her from her crib one Saturday and placing her on her changing table as she woke up to focus on my face and give me a great big smile. That sure starts your day on the bright side!
If you've seen Morgan's share site (photo/video site) than you are aware that she loves to giggle, smile, and eyeball her daddy! Seriously, seeing Tyler's face or hearing his voice makes her eyes light up and her lips creep into a smile- we have a daddy's girl on our hands! I can only imagine the bonding experiences to come between father and daughter.
As for mommy and daughter, our favorite pastime is singing. Lately it has been Christmas music, but Morgan will smile and coo and gurgle to almost any song as we sing along. It seems like almost daily we sing-song together for at least a short period of time.
Winter break is here, so there will be more mommy-daughter and family time to go around! We have quite the agenda on our hands, as Morgan will get to see and or meet many family members that she has not yet, including her new baby cousin, Jonathan. It will surely be a holiday season to remember and we'll be sure to capture it in photographs for all to see.
