Three Months

Yes, yes, the wee one will be four months in six days, but we just finished editing her three month photos, whatever;) She was a bit tired for these ones so we didn't get a lot of crazy smiley ones like last time, but we managed to find ones where she seems happy.

Who Replaced My Baby With the Devil's Spawn?!

So this post is really just to make me feel better, and to remind myself that Evey was not a complete terror today;) And of course she's not a terror, she's just going through some stuff: http://www.mybabysleepguide.com/2012/01/when-are-wonder-weeks.html?m=1. Some reallllllly hard stuff, she's 15 weeks and apparently this 19 week Wonder Week is a doozy, the hardest one, I guess which is why the fussiness starts at 15 weeks, joy!

So yah, rough day, screaming and crying, (not just from Evey, although I did refrain from the screaming) and lack of napping later in the day (daycare is going to be so thrilled tomorrow!). We cancelled plans to hang out with friends tonight, luckily they're friends with an eight week old, so they get it. She's sleeping on my lap right now and I'm hoping she stays this way for a while cause this little girl needs her rest (points to Chris for putting her to sleep when he got home, and one million points for taking her upstairs while he did it so I could curl up in the fetal position on the couch).

Evey and I did have some lovely moments today. Her mad skills astound me as she was able to hold a plastic shovel while we banged on plastic buckets!


And during the no nap time I decided to take her outside for some fresh air that did both of us some good, even if just for a little while.





So yah, glad we had those lovely moments to share in a day that rivaled her two month shot appt, and I got some cute videos too! Here's hoping this fussiness goes buh bye real soon;)

Social Evey

This past week Evey's been out and about a couple days, not that she's never done that before, but she did so well while we were out! I'm going to chalk it up to the fact that she is just days away from turning three months; bye bye fourth trimester!

We went to Sizzler with buddies on Thursday, although we were originally going to meet up at In N Out and go to the Farmer's Market afterwards, darn Hot August Nights!




And then we went to Yogurt Beach the following day, not the most exciting, I know, but the point I'm trying to get across is that she was so good! We got to enjoy our yogurt while holding and playing with our kid, all at the yogurt place, it's amazing!



And last night we went to a wedding! No we didn't stay the whole time, but three hours isn't bad! It was very lovely, out in Galena Creek, and although she was fussy due to being tired before the ceremony, she conked out during the ceremony and was just fine during the reception.




It's definitely nice to be able to be out more often/for longer periods of time and not have to worry. I do miss the tiny Evey days, in fact I was just looking at her early photos this week, but I have to say that I love how much more expressive and interactive she is. I want her to grab everything and put things in her mouth, and I'm sure that I will soon be telling her not to touch some things and will be digging things out of her mouth, but for now, I can't wait for those next milestones!
