Cambrie Mae: 3 Months


Sweet Cambrie Mae is 3 months old.  I had a sweet older mother tell me when Cade was a baby that once you hit 3 months things get a bit easier.  Its so true!  I feel like Cambrie Mae has become more predictable in her sleep schedule, more content when she's awake and learned to sleep much better at night this month.  We love our baby girl!

Here's a little bit about Cambrie Mae at 3 months....


She is smiley and chatty!!I love listening to her little coos and giggles.  She loves to chat and will smile and coo at just about anyone who will sit and listen.  One new accomplishment this month is squealing out in delight when she is happy.  Cambrie Mae also mastered rolling from her tummy to back.  However, this has greatly interfered with naptime.  Since she sleeps on her tummy she will sometimes roll over in her sleep and it makes her angry!

Sleep is so much better!  She eats every 3 hours during the day then is up for about an hour to an hour and a half before going to sleep.  This averages out to about 4 naps a day.  She will usually nap for about 1-2 hours.  Her 4th nap is shorter and some days she doesn't need it. She goes down between 7-8pm and wakes up for the day between 7-8am waking around 3 or 4am to eat.  We discovered the Halo sleep sack swaddle and it has made a huge improvement in her night time sleep!  I have a feeling she is going to be the child who is swaddled until she's like 9 months old....ha!

Cambrie Mae is weighing in right around 12lbs I would guess. She is in size 1 diapers and wearing mainly 3 months now with some of her 0-3 month things still fitting snugly. 

Some of Cambrie Mae's favorite things right now are being held, having someone talk to her, being sang too, Mommy, diaper/clothes changes, her brothers and the bouncy seat.  She still is not the biggest fan of baths or her car seat. 

We love having a little girl around the house and love watching her grow!  It seems like she's a little bigger every day.  I love the little rolls that are starting to appear:)  Cambrie Mae, we love you so much!!!

Yeah 3 months!! :) You are out of the 4th trimester and into babyhood- woo-hoo! ;) I just can't believe I haven't held this baby- maybe that will help me keep thinking you photoshopped a bow onto Cade's baby pictures?! ;) She is GORGEOUS (which I guess means I'm saying Cade would make a beautiful girl?! Don't tell Matt... He makes a ridiculously handsome boy as well :)) Haha. But really, I love her and you and your boys! We've set our trip home so we need to make plans!!!!! LOVE YOU!!!
