Happy 3 Month Birthday, Baby Girl!
We can hardly believe you are already 3 months old! You're still so little, but when I was looking back through your other monthly birthday photos it made you seem so big! It seems as though your little chunky rolls are just multiplying by the month! :) 
Here's what Shelby is up to these days...--TAKING NAPS!! For those of you who may not know, Shelby has fought naps tooth and nail since we brought her home from the hospital. Usually she would only nap for 5 minutes here and there throughout the day or sleep in my arms making for a very exhausted Mommy. She is now taking 3 naps a day that are usually 1.5-2 hours long. HALLELUJAH!
--sleeping much better at night! She usually sleeps for a solid 8 hour stretch at first at night. We put her down around 8pm and she only wakes up once to nurse (and I'll say it again...HALLELUJAH!) around 4am. I put her back down a little before 5, and she'll be in a light sleep until about 7 or 8am.
--still taking Prevacid for her acid reflux, and it's finally starting to really help. She's still a little fussy after eating...but it's so much better than it was before! The only real complaint we have is spitting up. She spits up all.the.time. I must admit it gets a little frustrating to have to change her clothes and my clothes so frequently, but it doesn't seem to affect her temperament at all so for that I am thankful!
--loves to make eye contact with us and will follow us around the room if we walk away.
--smiling and talking more and more...especially when she should be nursing. She'd rather talk than eat...although you'd never know it based on how quickly she puts on the weight!
--one of her favorite things to do is to try to stand up. We'll hold her up in our lap, and she'll stand on her feet and stare into our faces. It's so cute!
--we can still fit into a handful of her 3 month jammies, but other than that we're wearing all 6 month clothes now! I've gone ahead and starting buying 9 month pants though...they're a little too long for her still, but her little belly needs the extra room! (According to her daddy, we're trying to avoid the "muffin top.")
Thanks for checking in with us! Wishing you a very happy weekend! Can you believe it's the last weekend before Christmas?! Where does the time go????
