Three Month Old Update
by Brianna Thompson

I turned three months old last week. I'm so cute right now! I weigh about
eight pounds and my mom is kind of glad we've been having yucky weather, because I am getting to wear all the
long-sleeved 0-3 month clothes she had washed and ready for me. She gets kind of nervous about me in short sleeves because I still get cold easily.
I eat about every 2 1/2 -3 hours, sometimes longer, sometimes shorter. Just depends on my mood! I get a little fussy in the evenings and go to bed around 10 p.m. I sleep until about 5 a.m. then eat and sleep another three hours. My mom says I'm a way better sleeper than my brothers ever were and she's very thankful for that! I take two good naps a day, sometimes 2-2 1/2 hours at a time, with a few cat naps in between. Lately I've been napping in my car seat in the stroller at my brother Nathan's T-ball games and while my mom runs errands. Or else I also love to nap in my swing.

As long as I'm on the move, it keeps me asleep.

A lot of times my bow falls down over my eyes. I usually just a keep on sleeping! My brothers think this is quite funny and are now on bow patrol. They are quick to spot the bow falling down and get it back into place before it falls over my eyes!

I've stopped pooping my pants during the night. My mom swears every time she'd change my diapers there was always poop, up until a couple weeks ago. So now that I don't poop during the night, I have quite the poops mid-morning and throughout the rest of the day! My brothers think it's hilarious when I toot and poop as it is pretty noisy! A few weeks ago, I was doing tummy time (which I'm starting to actually enjoy now) and my mom didn't realize this poop was such a big blowout. She had to use lots of spray n' wash on this stain! And then she immediately put me in the tub!

Speaking of tub time, I've grown out of my little tub and now just lay on my sponge. I love my baths and still just wait patiently while mom gets the temperature just right!
Look how I've grown (this was my first bath):

And this was my last time in the little bath tub last week:

As you can see I've lost a lot of my beautiful dark hair. But my mom is relieved to see that it is slowly coming back, but not as dark. I also have quite the bald spot on the back of my head. I get so excited when I'm in my bouncy chair trying to kick and turn my head back and forth looking at the lights. I also get quite excited when I'm on my change table. My mom and I have some of our best conversations at the change table! I've giggled a few times and always end up getting the hick-ups because I get so worked up and excited!

Last Sunday I received a special blessing from my daddy. He's the best! We have some one-on-one time most Wednesdays when my mom goes to the gym. It was fun to meet some of my relatives for the first time and have grandparents, aunts and uncles and cousins over.

I'm happy to be growing and developing as I should. I'm pretty sure my mom, dad and brothers adore me and are thankful I'm a part of the family. What a neat family I have!
