As we get ready to round out three months and move on to four we also lose all the newborn that was Elizabeth up to this point. She is getting so big and is such a joy to be around. As I mentioned before, it just amazes me everyday how smart babies really are. She already knows how to get out of her swaddle... no matter how tight I put it. I just can't figure it out. I thought that if she got out of her swaddle that she would wake herself up with her arms but that really hasn't been the case. She is still my sleeping beauty, going to bed between 7 and 8 and not waking up until 4:30 or 5. It is so different then just two months ago where I thought I would go crazy from sleep deprivation. Lets see... now that she is rolling over from her back to her tummy, it is hard to leave her on the floor by herself because as soon as she gets over, she gets MAD! Silly girl. Right now she is only rolling over on her right side (and I must say, she is a pro at it now) but she will kick her legs over to her left side like she wants to roll over that way but she get enough strength to go that way. So, to help her out, she thought the blanket would help her and she grabbed the blanket for leverage and then got none when the blanket just came off the floor. It was funny to watch her try so hard and be so smart and then in the end, still not get it. I think she is definitely her mother's daughter in the since of getting frustrated when she can't do something. You can see it in her face when she is trying to do something that isn't going her way, she gets mad! They even mentioned this to me at daycare this week about her being strong willed and trying so hard to do something. She has gotten to the stage now where she wants to sit up all the time. This makes putting her in the carseat really hard and it makes Mommy sad that she doesn't want to lay in her arms anymore, but it is so fun to watch them grow and learn.
I have officially put Elizabeth's three month clothes away (well, except the pants). That was a hard and very sad day, even Greg was a little sad that day. I knew she could probably fit in some of them still but I figured it would be best to make a clean break from them. So, I got all the 3-6 month clothes washed and put away where once was the little clothes my sweet baby girl wore. Thanks to my cousin Crystal, we have a good stock pile of clothes to wear because Elizabeth didn't have many new clothes in that size. There were so many cute dresses and spring/summer outfits in there and I can't wait for Elizabeth to start wearing some of them. So on to the new waredrobe and lots of new things in our life... including a new CAR! YEAH!
The weekend is so near and I can't wait to spend it with my sweet baby girl! I will leave everyone with a couple of pics I have take over the last week or so.
I have to mention that Elizabeth loves that ring in both pictures... she sucks on it and just holds it all the time. We take it everywhere we go. They even told me at daycare that she loves to hold on to something at all times. It is such a great toy and we thank Grandma B for giving it to E!
