3 months old!!!

Little Miss B will be 3 months this week...and if you're counting weeks she'll be 13 weeks tomorrow! She is definitely finding her voice more and more. We laugh at her alot now because she'll just talk and talk in her crib or on her playmat. And, she LOVES getting zerberts (is that how you spell it?). It's where you blow on her belly and it makes a funny noise. She'll look at you as if she's saying, "What are you doing?" and then kick her feet and coo and throw her hands up in the air. Super cute!! We can hold her up like she's standing and she'll bounce and coo and talk and look around with those huge eyes! Aunt Alli came over last night and helped with a bath, which is still one of my favorite times (if she doesn't decide to pee-pee right when we put her in the tub). Bella's still a champ at sleeping through the night, which started at 6 weeks, praise the Lord! I have posted her picture by the giraffes and had to move away from the green pillow because she's so long. No, I didn't cry...but, sometimes I want to when she's growing out of her outfits! The past few weeks have been full of firsts...and since i'm documenting EVERY first I thought i'd share it with you. It was her first trip to my office to see the crew at the CDM, her first trip to Best Buy where we shopped for a video camera (yay, now you can see her in action! Watch out blog...here we come), her first presidential inauguration, and her first time to suck her thumb. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching the inauguration and festivities! I won't go into political rhetoric but it will Bella's first president to be inaugurated. I couldn't help but get teary-eyed when I watched all the past presidents walk in and especially when Obama took the oath of office and gave his speech. Regardless of how everyone voted, I enjoy his hope for the future! And, it was both a historic and moving day with Obama's speech and watching his interactions with the past presidents and his family. I do look forward to the future and am excited that Bella will experience this memory one day! I also admire Michelle Obama as a mother, a professional, and a woman who carries herself with confidence, grace, and beauty. I've watched and read some of her interviews and have always been impressed with her love for her family and also her professionalism. Plus, she looked hot in her ball gown!! For now, I hope you enjoy the new pictures of life as we know it!

one of the saddest things is to fold up and put away outfits that don't fit anymore! my mom had to help me because I couldn't let go of them. to make myself feel better I went and bought my favorite sleepers in 3, 6, and 9 months. it will be a sad day indeed when I have to put those away! she is just adorable emily. I am so happy for you guys!

I love her rocking the Bumbo chair. I don't have a baby but I still think they're one of the greatest inventions ever. I'm just happy that the red hair looks like it's going to stick around. (Since I am half red head!) Have a happy day!
