Callie is 3 Months!

Our sweet baby girl is three months old!! Well. She has been for a couple of weeks now. Better late than never, right? (Hey. Don't judge. Life's been crazy! Number three gets a little neglected occasionally!) So. Our baby is three months old. And she is such a good baby. She still struggles a bit with reflux, meaning, she spits up more than usual, takes Zantac, and shows some discomfort during nursing sometimes. It seems to be getting a little better. She holds her head up like a champ when someone's holding her. She hates doing tummy time. She loves her siblings, especially her big brother. She occasionally gets a bottle of formula when mama needs a little bit of freedom. ;) She gives her smiles free of charge. But she makes you work HARD for a giggle. (Apparently, she giggled a couple of times while we were on our cruise. And I've heard a TINY giggle since returning. Jury's still out on the giggle.) BUT she can make noise like the best of them! Leave her with her Mena and Grammy for one week, and she turns into a squealing monkey! Seriously, before we left, I was thinking that it was strange that she really wasn't making much noise. I was shocked when I was snuggling with her on the couch the day after we got home and she squealed right in my ear! She is definitely getting chunkier by the day, and she resembles Cayman much more than she resembles Charis. She is an excellent sleeper, as long as I stay on top of feeding her in the evening. I like to do what's called "cluster feeding" - basically, I feed her less more often in the evening leading up to bedtime. When I finally swaddle her and put her in the bed around 10, she doesn't wake up until 7-8. Ahhh!!!! Praise God for more rest!!! 

This hat is 6-12 months. I bought it for this
summer. I think I'm going to have to find a
larger hat to match her adorable pink and
white polka dot bathing suit!
