Bryson and Ashley: 3 months

3 months

Ava is 3 months old today!
She's a quarter of a year old!

At 3 months, Ava is a very sweet baby with a very happy disposition.

She has a lot of hair on the top of her head and at the very bottom of her head in the back, but she is balding in a strip right in the middle of her head.
We say she looks like she has a toupee and a mullet.

She has found her hands and LOVES to suck on her fingers.
She doesn’t suck on her thumb.

She is still swaddled every night.

Up until a week ago, she slept 9 hours, woke up and ate for 5 minutes and slept for another 3 hours.

BUT...for the last week or so, she has only been sleeping for 6 hours, waking up to eat and going back to sleep for 3 more hours at a time until she has slept about 11 or 12 hours total. I know that still is pretty good for a 3 month old, but it has been throwing me off a little bit. :)

She has learned how to roll over from her stomach to her back.
She doesn't do it ALL the time, but has done it several times.

She likes tummy time more now and doesn't just cry the entire time anymore.

She loves to coo and babble to herself and to her family.

She smiles ALL the time. Even when she's tired and upset, she will still smile at you.

She is wearing 3-6 month or 6 month clothes and size 2 diapers.

She loves her "Good Morning" song and smiles SO big every single time someone sings it to her.

She loves bath time.

She is more sturdy and loves to "stand up."

She has been to four states now: California, Nevada, Colorado and Utah.

She LOVES her Daddy and smiles SO big whenever she sees him.

Here she is at one month and two months...
