Wee M's 1st Easter

Miss M's first Eater was a big hit.  She was an angel at Bowers Easter and watched her brother hunt for treats!  The pictures highlight how well M is doing in grasping toys.  She'll hold onto something that you give her for a short while and will try to get it in her mouth!

Bubbling

Our little lady is taking after Drooly McDroolerson and has been frothing at the mouth quite a bit recently!  Normally it happens as she talks to herself or whomever is listening.  Auntie Lorri has a video that will hopefully be uploaded shortly of her talking!  We recently visited Bubba/Gampy's house where she had a few episodes of not wanting to sleep - but luckily Bubba didn't mind a bit of screaming in her ear and paced the floor with Wee M for a few hours.  Other than not wanting to go to sleep ... ever ... she's a really happy baby!

Bumbo Fun

Hangin' out

Her 'get me outta here' look!

Visitors!

Sleeping

It seems like Wee M's good sleeping days are over - at least the ones in her crib!  She seems content enough to sleep anywhere but the crib!  Her best sleep nowadays is in her car seat, which means lots of midnight car rides with dad!  However, this morning she one upped herself by falling asleep in her jumpy chair after being awake since 4am!  Last night we snuck into Toys 'R' Us right before it closed and picked up a flashy aquarium singing bubbling toy that is supposed to put babies to sleep.  Thus far, Wee M - 1; flashy fishy aquarium singing bubbling toy - 0.

Rolling Over

Miss M, upon deciding she had had enough of tummy time, rolled herself over onto her back...twice!

Forward Facing M

Now that the young lady is 3 months old, we decided it was time we put our neck skills to the test.  First test was the forward facing Bjorn ... check.  Next was the Bumbo ... sort of check.  Finally we have the jumpy thingy ... check!

Wait for it ....

M's Musical Milestone

As of 10 minutes ago, Wee M has, by herself, turned on the musical dog on her bouncy chair!

March Update

It has been a pretty quiet week.  Quiet in more ways than one!  Wee M seems to have gotten over her crying days!  Or maybe we have just finally figured out how she wants her day structured.  She is very aware during her awake times, and will move her hands (in jerky movements) to hit the animals on her chair.  She will sit happily for longer stretches of time either in her chair or swing and will give big happy smiles on request (unless she's having a fussy moment).  She is generally happiest in the morning. She is still a good sleeper going from about 8pm until 2-3am, then again until 5:30-6:00am.  That is unless she happens to break free of her swaddle ... one hand out generally means she'll be up between 12:00am and 1:00am.  She is growing quickly ... I'll be cleaning out her drawers in the next few days to make way for 3-6 month clothes.  All in all, she's a good little Miss M!
