The beginning of the end

Lydia is 3 months old!  We're finally seeing daylight at the end of the sleeping, pooping, eating, no interacting, newborn stage!  In fact, this little girl is changing so much every day.  I find it funny how different she can look depending on the day and how she is sitting/laying. 











Our monthly photo shoot wasn't so great again.  Lydia wanted to do anything but sit in the chair, look at the camera, & take photos. 

 






Daycare is going well for Liddy & she continues to come home exhausted every day.  Her brother loves helping drop her off in the morning and visits her throughout the day.  She has recently moved to a 3.5 hour feeding schedule and is doing pretty well with it.  Her waketime seems to be right around 1 hour and 15 minutes which is a big improvement from the 40-50 minutes we were seeing for a long time.  She last nurses at 7:00 PM, is in bed by 7:20, more often than not wakes once for a quick feed anytime from 4:00-5:00 AM, and is up to get ready for daycare at 6:45. 

Likes:  cooing/gurgling, sucking on her hands, blowing raspberries, smiling & laughing at dad's funny faces & noises, sleeping with arms out of the sleep sack
Dislikes:  having her nose cleaned, being hungry &/or tired

Photo Update

Life is moving way too fast lately so all I have are a few phone pics.  Lydia started daycare on May 1 and is doing great!  She has been exhausted each day when I pick her up.  Apparently blowing raspberries and chatting with Sesame Street toys is hard work!  Colin has settled in nicely to his big brother role.  He has been loving playing baseball in the back yard now that we've had some spring weather.
