Lillian Lindley turned 3 months old on January 16th. I know, I know I'm late on posting; but these pictures were taken on her actual 3 month date. I can't believe this sissy is 3 months old. Every month seems to go by faster and faster.
Lillian is just the sweetest thing! She smiles and smiles and smiles some more. (But in her 3 month pictures, I couldn't get one on camera). She literally just sits there and takes it all in. I sound like a broken record, but this is a welcomed difference from Hudson. God love that needy boy!
Lillian Lindley at THREE MONTHS:
-Still nursing every 3-3.5 hours during the day. This girl is in and out in less than 10 mintues most times. She's super efficient. When she's with Meka, she will take a bottle like a champ. But those bottles are few and far between. I am just a nursing snob. I love it!
side note: even though I plan to nurse for a year, I have become obsessed with filling my freezer with as much breast milk as possible. Hello, I'm Kristin, and I'm a frozen milk hoarder.
- Sleeping from 8:30-5:30 at night, nursing for 10-15 minutes and going back down for 3 more hours. Although that 5:30 time kinda sucks, she is great about going back to sleep...and so do I! Still having to do the paci thing a few times, but other than that, she's consistently going about 12 hours of total nighttime sleep. She's napping between 1.5-2 hours with each cycle during the day. I am happy to report that her napping is improving. Thank the Lord for that!
- Still wearing size one diapers. Meka said the other day it might be time to bump up. I quickly informed her that we have 3 more boxes of ones, and she will just squeeze into them. Ha! They still fit her just fine.
-Wearing 3 month rompers and things that button around the legs. She is still able to wear a lot of her newborn gowns, but they are just short. She has a little waist, but with a long stride. Just like her brother.
-Still sporting her dark hair. But I swear it photographs darker than it really is. Me and Joey were wondering if it was falling out again, and we both noticed it wasn't...its just getting lighter. But she does have more down the middle, like a baby Mohawk. Hudson had waaaay more hair than her at this age.
-She is rolling both tummy to back and back to tummy. Her first time to roll back to tummy was on February 2nd (superbowl night). Since that first roll, she is on the move. This morning, she rolled clear across her mat and blanket. I liked that I was able to put her on the mat and step away, but that's not possible now. Even though she has been rolling tummy to back since 9-10 weeks, the back to tummy seems to be so much easier for her. She gets on her stomach and gets pissed because she doesn't want to go back. Tummy time is not her friend.
-Favorite waketime activities: playmat, bouncy seat, being held, swing., and playing with her hands. She will grab at things on playmat, too. I pulled out some light up toys she got for Christmas and she has been digging those. I need to get the blue bumbo from Kiki's house.
- Loves to baby talk and just started blowing bubbles
-I have heard from several people (non-family members), that she is starting to look like a Zito. This makes me so happy considering my children look nothing like me.
Wearing one of my gowns.
For memory sake, her daily schedule:
morning nurse at 5:30 am, back to sleep until 8:30-9.
Nurse every 3ish hours until 6:00 pm
waketime bt 6:00-7:15
quiet time/cat nap in swing bt 7:15-8:00ish
bath at 8:00
nurse and bed at 8:30
(mommy and daddy nightly date from 8:45-10:15)
This angel baby is such a huge joy in our lives! I thank God for her (and her big brotherbear) daily!!
