3 Months

Last Saturday was Adelyn's 3 month birthday.  I can not believe how fast time has flown!  On her birthday, she was stuck in her carseat all day as we drove down to Emerald Isle.  The following Saturday was her 100th day of being alive and once again she was stuck in her car seat as we drove home. 

Although she was in her carseat for both those big days, she definitely has seen her fair share of adventures.  Travis and I began to think about all the things that she has done the past three months and it has been a lot.  I guess that is one of the benefits of being born right before summer begins!  It is fun because everytime we go do something, it is her first time.

Aside from all the fun things, she has developed a ton.  She went from being my tiny newborn to miss social!  Over the past week even, you can see different milestones.  She learned how to really roll over and started to giggle!  She rolled over at about 3 weeks but I think it was a fluke.  She did it a couple times but after she gained some weight she stopped.  It is still a lot of work for her with her chub, but she can do it now.  My favorite milestone is her giggling!  I LOVE it!  At the beach it all started while we were giving her a bath.  I think Travis made a face at her and she laughed.  Travis and I both laughed in response and she thought it was hilarious and laughed some more.  I find myself trying to get her to laugh all the time now.  I pretend to eat her tummy and it cracks her up!   

At 3 months, she is still sleeping through the night!  Wahoo!  She doesn't hate tummy time as much and her neck is getting pretty strong.  She loves to play with her pink ball.  She will just stare at it and put it in her mouth.  She "talks" all the time!  I love it!  If you coo at her, she will coo back and she is very good at holding conversations.  She loves to eat and you can tell by looking at her!  People comment on her rolls and say things like, "she is a healthy baby" or "she doesn't miss a meal does she."

This past week she has really made a connection with Travis.  She used to just want me to comfort her, but now she wants Travis too.  This makes my heart smile!

Adelyn is still the center of our world and I can't tell you how much I love my sweet baby!
