My little 11 week old!


Current mood: hungry

11 weeks today! My little one is rounding the corner to 3 months! I can't believe it!
Well this week started off pretty good. She has been talking up a storm and smiling like crazy. The days have been getting better until... about Wednesday. Then she took a couple of steps backwards. She stopped talking so much (usually only talks now when she’s upset and wants errrr... demands your full attention) she still smiles a lot but now she’s becoming the old Mia Fuss Fuss again. I am not sure what changed... her progress has been great but now she refuses to take naps longer than 15mins during the day so she gets real cranky and moody during the later part of the day. The only way we can get her to take longer naps is if she sleeps on Adrian (which is really sweet but not practical). So we are trying to figure out how we can get her to take longer naps during the day... once we nail this problem I think her fussiness will get a lot better.

She found her hands this week. She always has them in her mouth. At first I thought she was just hungry but she isn't and does this all the time now. She loves to munch on her hands which I don't mind (she is a baby) but I am praying she doesn't find that thumb! She reaches up to you now too and loves to touch your face, but you gotta be careful once she grabs a hold she really digs in and its painful haha. She’s still cooing a lot but now its more of a gurrgle... its kinda funny. Tummy time is getting a hold lot better! (Thank goodness!) she doesn't scream like she used to and tolerates it a lot longer as long as it’s on her changing table. (One of her favorite places to be) I don't know if its because its soft to the touch, the lady bug print, or being up high. Either way its nice to see her actually holding up her head better when on her tummy and not having her suffocate herself like she used to. She also learned to roll on her side, though she seemed to have stopped doing that for awhile. I am not sure why this started or why it stopped but it was pretty cute. She’s also tolerating her jumperoo a bit more and she’s almost big enough to be in it without some extra padding to keep her from being swallowed up whole! haha

She is changing so much! looking more and more like Daddy everyday... I guess we found out who has the most dominate genes haha who knows she may change again. When she was born she looked like me, awhile later she looked like a blend, and now she’s a mini-Adrian haha. Her eyes are finally settling into a light brown, but they still get really greeny in the sun... hmmm.. maybe she will be an eye changing baby!

That’s about it for the week, as for now I am going to grab a quick snack before she’s becomes Ms. Fuss Fuss again
