Munk Munk's Monkey

Cassidy has gotten use to her hands alittle now so she likes to grip toys. Her favorite so far is her monkey! She loves to cuddle up with it and give it kisses (or eat it whichever way you'd like to look at it...lol). She also likes to play in her lay&play with the rattles and she loves the mirror in the middle that plays music! lol She stays busy playing all day long that by the time it's bedtime she is more than ready to be tucked in for the night! lol   

Cassidy's 3 month Pictures

On her 3 month birthday, I decided to take her to get her pictures done at PictureMe in Walmart. She had just had her bottle and she was so sleepy. It also didn't help that she had on a warm fuzzy pink leopard outfit on either. She did not want to open those pretty bright eyes to save her life! But we still got some cute shots of her and us together. Here are a few of my favorites!

                     

Growing Baby Girl

OMG I still can't get over that my baby girl is 3 months old! Well technically she is now 3months and 1wk and 6days old, but who's counting! She has been pretty much gaining a pound a week and as of Wednesday, January 13th she is 8lbs 2oz and 20.5in long! She is growing up way too fast and I just want her to stay little forever! Oddly enough, she grows out of diapers faster than clothes! I guess she got mommy's big butt! lol I almost cried yesterday when  put a size 1 diaper on her and it fit so well. She only has about an inch left to go on her newborn clothes and she will be out of those too! Gosh, it seems like I just put her preemie clothes up and got all her newborn clothes out for her to wear and now I'm about to have to put those up and break out the 3month clothes!! SLOW DOWN BABY GIRL!

I am so proud of her progress though! She has caught up so fast from being 2 months early...she is developing only about a month behind. She will be caught up in no time! Her eyes have developed enough so she is now following us around the room and watching every move we make. She is cooing and smiling like the happy silly baby that she is! She is accidentally rolling over from her back to her tummy and my baby bobblehead doesn't bobble so much anymore. She is grabbing onto things, which this includes my necklace that Daddy gave me...no bueno, and almost starting to be interested in toys. She absolutely LOVES movies and music! I put her winnie the pooh and sing-a-long movies in at least once or twice a day and she is so content. She also loves for us to read to her so she can look at the colorful pictures although she tends to snuggle up against us and fall asleep before we get to the ending! lol Apparently apple juice is her baby crack!...she LOVES IT!

This proud mommy can also gloat that my baby girl is now sleeping in her bed all night long! That's right...all night long at 3 months! So excited!! I have started a bedtime routine starting at 8pm every night: bottle, cuddle and bedtime story, sleep til 12pm, bottle, cuddle, then back to bed and she sleeps until 6am in the morning. She has done so good and is so much more awake during the day. I couldn't be any more proud of my baby girl...I'm definitely one proud mommy!

*3 months old*

Cassidy turned 3 months old January 2, 2010! I can't believe it's already been 3 months. She is getting so big and progressing so nicely. On January 2nd, she weighted in at 7lbs 1oz and 20 inches long! Slowly but surely she has now grown out of her preemie clothes and into her newborn outfits. She isn't quite tall enough to fit into the newborn footsies but she is filling them out nicely! She is getting better at rolling over and is starting to push up alot more with her arms. She has definitely gotten good at picking up her head and looking everywhere!

However, she is definitely spoiled rotten! She loves to cuddle with me and daddy instead of sleeping in her bed. Well... she prefers to cuddle with her daddy since he is like her big fluffy pillow. She loves to be around people and to be held and she loves to watch her winnie the pooh movies. She has her next doctor's appointment February 3rd for her 4 month shots and check up. I can't wait to see how much she has grown!

*she did not like being naked...poor baby

*Her little hands stole my heart and her little feet ran away with it<3
