Three Months

Gabby, you are 3 months old today! We don't have a weight or length measurement as there is no doctors appointment this month, but I do have to say you have grown tremendously. You are still wearing 3 mo. size clothing and still have plenty of room to grow into!

As you see in the picture, you sure are smiling more often. You are a very happy baby most of the time! You now giggle if you find something funny, you talk to your toys and to us and you absolutely LOVE bath time! You usually go to bed around 8:00pm and I can count on you getting up around 6:30am. There have been times that you wake between 4:00am and 6:00am, but those nights are less frequent. You are much more alert and aware of everything that is going on around you, therefore you are very curious. If you see something of interest you furrow your brow and focus on that object intently. I think you are going to have your Daddy's curiousity!

We love you more and more as each day passes and we feel very blessed to be your parents!

Love,

Mommy and Daddy

Happy Days

We had a wonderful Christmas! Gabby enjoyed looking at all of her new toys. I have put most of them away to bring out as she gets older. It will be like Christmas all over again! I got a new camera (that I love!) and am having so much fun capturing some of Gabby's best moments. I am looking forward to learning more about photography so that I can continue to capture those moments.

Grandpa Jim and Grandma Christy visited right before Christmas. After Christmas, Grandma Mary came to visit. We loved having everyone here and I know they all enjoyed spending time with Gabby. It was special for each of them to spend time with Gabby during her first Christmas. She is very much loved by all of her family! In a week, Gabby's great-grandma, great aunt and cousin are coming to visit. It will be a fun girls weekend!

We hope everyone had a great and safe New Year!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas from our family to yours. We hope that you had a joyous and wonderful day with your families.

Two Months!

So Mommy is a little late with this post, but what's new??? Gabby, you are two months old! You weigh 10lbs. 15 oz. and are 22 inches long. You just started wearing 3 month size clothing and in fact still fit into a couple of your newborn things until last week. You are, for the most part, a serious baby, always observing your surroundings. You are very curious and stare intently on many things. You also smile a lot, which makes our hearts melt! You are trying to laugh and are also trying to reach for things around you, but have yet to realize that if you open your clenched fist you could grab an object. One of my favorite things is how vocal you have become. We hold many conversations these days and you also talk to the toys around you!

You are growing very quickly and are about to celebrate your first Christmas! Daddy and I are excited to begin our own family traditions with you. We aren't quite sure what the traditions will be - maybe driving around on Christmas Eve to look at Christmas lights. That might be a great place to start! Every day we have with you is a blessing and we love you very much!

Love,

Mommy & Daddy
