Baby Love - Three Months

My Dear Charlotte Faye,

You are THREE MONTHS OLD!




This month you dressed up for your first Halloween, went to Ellie's birthday party, you met Miss Molly, and you played with Emmi.  

What are your stats and what does the doctor say
At your two month check up at the end of October, you weighed 11lb 4oz and were 23 inches long.  So, I am guessing you weigh almost 12 lbs and you are 23.5 inches long.  You are a growing girl!  

What are you eating?
You are still eating Enfamil ProSoBee.  You are eating 4-5 oz bottles every three - four hours.

When do you sleep and eat?
We have been sticking to our routine.  You get a bath and your bedtime bottle between 9:30 and 10:00pm.  You have been sleeping until about 5:30am.  Sometimes, you even sleep longer!  After your bottle around 9:00am, you like to take a very long nap - sometimes four hours long!  In the afternoon, you take shorter cat naps.

What do your routines look like?
Your routines are still based on eating and sleeping.  During the day, you like to take a nap in your swing.  You seem to have out grown the colic stage.  You now cry in the evenings because you think you need a snack or you are fighting your sleep.  You still love your bath

What size clothes and diapers are you wearing?
You are wearing 0-3 months and 3 month clothes.  You have officially outgrown all of your newborn clothes!  You are wearing Size 1 diapers.

What are some things you love?
You love sitting up.  You love your new Kick n' Play Piano Gym.  You still love your Lovie.  You love when people talk to you.  You love music.  You like playing Patty Cake and Motorboat and Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes.  You have recently discovered the TV and you are very intrigued. 


What are some things you don't love?
You don't like being held like a baby.  You don't like your diaper to be even a little wet.  You don't like waiting for your bottle to be prepared.

What can you do?
You can laugh.  You can bat at your toys hanging from your carseat or playmat.  You can help hold your bottle.  You can raise from a reclined position to sitting up on your own.


Who has visited and watched you?
Emmi came over for a visit.  You met Molly Ann.  Mimi and Pops and Gigi and PawPaw have watched you.



What are some of your nicknames?
Daddy and I call you Sis and Sister a whole lot!
Your cousin L calls you Baby Charlotte.
Your cousin D calls you Char-Char.
Mimi calls you Princess.


What are we looking forward to in the next month?
Before you turn four months: 
* You are going to spend the night with Aunt Magan and Uncle Adam and L.
* You will have your first Thanksgiving.
* You will meet lots of people and get passed around like a basket of bread!
