Rebecca at 3 months




Our sweet little Rebecca Lucy is 3 months old. She just seems to get more interactive and sweet by the day. She has changed so much in the last month. She found her hands and is in LOVE with them. She grabs onto anything she can-her favorites are Corrine's hair, clothing or cloth books and her baby doll.
She is a very social baby and she can be LOUD! When she wants attention she'll do a fake cry until you look at her, then she'll smile and coo at you.



She is a professional bubble blower, who also loves to suck and smack her lips. If given the chance, she'll give you a nice wet shoulder as she licks it. If she gets ahold of your arm or side of your hand-she'll make it wet and red from sucking on it so hard. She thinks her hands are the best things to suck on, especially when her shirt hangs over them, except when she's tired, and then she wants her pacifier.



Her eyes are still beautifully blue just like her big brother Simeon. She is very expressive with her face, and she can somehow make her tongue almost pointed on the end. She opens her mouth wide when she squeals the loudest!

At night she is consistently sleeping 7 hours getting up to eat around 5am, then going back to sleep until 8am when I have to get her up to take the kids to school. She will sometimes wake up at 6:45 usually because he oldest big brother can't wait to hold her. If she does get up early then she falls asleep in the carrier on the walk to school. She takes one long nap 3-4 hours everyday, but it depends on what we are doing, when she takes it. If I'm driving around alot in the morning, she'll take it then. If not she'll fall asleep at noon when I take Ammon to preschool and wake up just before 3:00 when Simeon and Corrine get home from school.

We feel so incredibly blessed to have Rebecca in our family. She has brought so much joy and love with her.

On Sept 29th she was weighed (she's in a study and gets checked every 4 weeks) and weighed 12 lbs 7 oz and was 22.5". She is wearing 6 months clothes, which fit great in length, but are long on her arms.

What a great sleeper! That's so nice. Connor's doing much better now that he's in his crib. Yay! I love all the pictures. I'm so glad you posted them since we aren't there to see her growing in person. She's such a cutie!
