3 Months

Our baby girl is 3 months old. I LOVE this stage she is in right now. She's found her voice and has become quite the little chatterbox. She's also finding out she can giggle, and it just melt my heart.  Although she is a VERY big drama queen, she is also the biggest sweetheart that will just coo and smile at you till you just want to kiss her little face off. 

She's still in a little stage that she ONLY wants mommy or daddy to hold her. As much as I love it, I hope she grows out of that soon. It's hard when other people want to hold her and she looks around the room to find us and cries until we come over and grab her. 

It's amazing how grown up she has become in just a few short weeks.

 My babygirl LOVES to be outside, driving in the car, or pretty much ANYWHERE except for being cooped up in our house. She gets bored easily (my husband says she gets that from her mama) and always needs to be doing something. She's getting a little better at sitting in her chair by herself, without having to be entertained EVERY second. We are working on it ;) 

 

 This girl has personality and then some. She LOVES to be the center of attention, whether that's talking up a storm, or screaming at the top of her lungs. 

It's AMAZING how nice people are when you have an adorable baby girl hanging from your arm. I literally get stopped EVERYWHERE I go and get a zillion comments on how beautiful she is. I can't help but agree and think she is the most perfect thing on the planet. 

Mitch and I just lay awake staring at her sometimes, wondering how we were blessed with such a perfect little angel. We are definitely first time parents, soaking in every breath and move she takes. 

She's recently started reaching and grabbing everything in sight, then immediately putting it in her mouth.Whether its her blanket or those little paws of hers, she is always sucking/slobbering on something.  

She is weighing at about 12 pounds right now (we've got a big girl on our hands) and those chubby legs and cheeks are an obsession of ours that we can't help but kiss every inch of them. 

She's worn a few of her 6 months clothes already and that just about puts me over the edge. My girl cannot be growing this fast right before my eye's. 

She's grown out of a few of her 0-3 month outfits and it breaks my heart. As much as I love the stage she is in now, I can't help but remember how much I loved her newborn stage, which shes clearly grown out of.

 She doesn't like to roll over much, but she loves practicing her standing skills and is ALWAYS kicking those chubby legs of hers. At this rate I think she'll skip crawling and start off running, heaven forbid! 

She is an excellent little sleeper. Let me rephrase that. She is an excellent little sleeper AT NIGHT! She can go a whole day with only a 20 minute nap, it's like she's the energizer bunny or something. 

{I need to borrow some of her energy}

 It is so nice to have my mom and family here to help watch her if we need to.  We are loving every second of being back in Idaho. And so does this spoiled girl of ours. She's getting oohs and aahs every second of every day. And her mom has a camera in front of her poor face at all times! 

If you follow my Facebook or Instagram, I apologize. I always go back and look at my pictures and think to myself, "Wow, I am overly annoying with posting pictures of my girl. I'm surprised no one has deleted me yet." So if you feel the need to delete my annoying Facebook or Instagram, I completely understand ;) 

 Mitch and I couldn't be more proud of our little girl. We honestly could not  have asked for a more perfect baby. Being her mom has been the greatest blessing of my life.

 I am "her person".  

I am the one she will come to with all of her owies, sick days, broken hearts, or just because. 

And the thought of this brings me so much happiness it is overwhelming. 

No matter how much love everyone else has for her, they will never be able to nurture her like I can.

 Not because I am Super mom, but because I am HER mom.

 At times I am the only one who can soothe her and make her feel comfort. And this has brought me the most incredible joy. More joy than I ever thought possible   

We sure do love this little sassafras of ours, more and more every day.
