Dear Hannah,
I know I say this a lot BUT I still just can't believe how fast time is flying!My Baby Girl is 3 MONTHS!? You are getting so big so fast and you are changing so much, almost daily! You are definitely not my tiny little newborn anymore, which is a little bitter sweet!
You have become quite the little stinker lately. Once upon time I could snuggle you up in your blanket and sit in my bed to rock you to sleep. Now {even though you are soooo tired} when I snuggle you in your blanket and lay you in my arms you get so mad, especially if I am sitting down. I have to stand up and walk around and sing to you in order to get you to sleep. Speaking of sleep, you have been sleeping sooo good at night. You usually get up once or twice, depending on the night. Either way that feels so amazing! Especially when compared to the every hour or two!
Not to mention when you are awake, you would prefer us to stand up {with you facing out and dangling your legs} and walk around or bounce you. You love to be on the move!If we lay you in our arms and cradle you, {like we did when you were teeny tiny} we are quickly reminded that is not allowed :) You want to be up and part of the action!
You definitely love to be held! and I am okay with that, because I love holding you! so much that Daddy and Grandma tease me that your head is getting flat from "never holding you", of course its quite the opposite! {nice and round}. The downfall of you thinking Mama's arms are more comfortable is that {lately} when I lay you down to sleep, you wake up very quickly! Don't get me wrong! I do love holding you {reread the beginning of paragraph to reconfirm that ;)} It does make it hard to get things done when you are not sleeping. BUT then again, you will only be this little once, so the laundry and dishes can wait!
I'm definitely loving this new thing about you... You KNOW who your Mommy and Daddy are! without a doubt. You will easily smile at anyone, even strangers, but we can get the biggest smiles out of you very quickly. Especially Daddy, all he has to do is look at you and within seconds you are smiles galore! Lately when others are holding you, you look for me, and sometimes you are so happy with some people holding you. You go from zero to sixty very quickly and only Mommy can calm you down.
You have become my little "inch worm". When you were 10 weeks I put you on the floor and you started to try and push your self forward. You couldn't quite figure out your arms but you would push you butt up with you legs and then slide forward, making you look like a little worm. SO funny! Once you figure out those arms I am going to have to keep those floor VERY clean!
You are growing right before my eyes! When I pick you up now, you feel so sturdy! I love it! Also {much to my dismay} some of your cute 3 month sized clothes are too small! So sad! Time for them to retire!
I can't believe how quickly you are developing and growing! These past three months have been amazing! I look forward to the many months ahead of us and to see what adventures you are going to bring us!
Love, Mommy!
