Our baby is 3 months old.

Layla Grace is 3 months old as of September 27, 2015. I can't believe these 3 months have passed by so fast. I still remember being in the hospital with her like it was yesterday. I loved being in the hospital. I was able to look after and care for my baby ALONE with my husband. Of course Stassi would come and visit but it was so nice being able to watch her and love on her for a few days alone. 

But now, of course, life is life and it's crazy. She is watched by her grandma during the week & we just love the time we have with her and her sister.

 So here is Layla at 3 months:
-She sits up so well. Although not on her own, her head and neck are very strong. 
-We put her in her walker and her feet touch the ground so she's able to stand in there like a big person! 
-She loves baths. 
-She loves her head being rubbed. 
-She had cradle cap poor baby, but it's mostly gone now! 
-Just like her sister at that age, she is a total daddy's girl. 
-Speaking of daddy, she looks just like him. It's crazy...they are twins. 
-I wanna say her skin is getting darker (which I love. I can't wait to see its final color)
-She has big dark brown eyes like daddy. 
-She smiles so much. She is a little smiling machine. 
-BUT she also wins the award for giving dirty looks lol
-She gets surprised/scared easily. It doesn't take much to startle her. 
-She eats so much. Like...so much. 
-She loves her sister. Everytime Stassi is around, she watches her and smiles at her and just kicks her little legs. 
-She is extremely active. At first she was a little sleepy bug (which I know a lot of babies are) but Stassi wasn't so we weren't sure what to expect. But now she just swings those legs and arms all around. 
-She coos and talks a lot. 
-She sleeps through the night! (Hallelujah!!)
-She is such a little cuddler. 
-She loves to watch TV. 
-She has sucked her thumb a few times which I hope goes away...
-BUT she's teething so I'm sure that has something to do with it. 
-She's not very good at swallowing her Tylenol lol
-She does tummy time like a champ. Always has...and now she lifts her head up during tummy time which I love. 
-She dances. Like, I kid you not. She dances. 
-Daddy said she's a grasshopper because she's always trying to "jump" off of us lol
-She can be extremely serious...almost intimidating lol 
-She loves church. She actually looks and listens to the pastor.
-Speaking of church, she's great in church. As long as she has her bottle and daddy's arms, she's good to go. 
-I sing in the worship band at church, and the music NEVER wakes her up when we practice so I love that. 
-She had her first road trip & she did so well. I had to climb in the back seat a few times to feed her but she was so good. 
-She was dedicated at church! And I just loved being able to dedicate our little girl to the Lord. And have our church family stand behind us and support us. 

Layla is just a great baby. Smiley. Quiet (for the most part) and just loves her family. I love our little Layla Grace. She's such an amazing addition to this family and I can't wait to see her overcome all her milestones. Mommy and daddy love you baby! Happy 3 months :)
