3 months old!

I can't BELIEVE my little gracie girl is 3 months old.  Good grief- i love the heck out of her.  I never knew I could love a little tiny human this much.  I love spending every single moment of every single day with her. Her adorable personality is starting to come out and it kills me.  I can tell that she is a sweetheart, she is really mellow and is just content with anything, really.  Unless she's really hungry or has gas bubbles, then she gets a little grumpy haha. But I still love her.

She started to giggle about 2 weeks ago. I was talking to her one morning and all the sudden she let out the cutest little giggle ever. Tanner's little sister aubree was the first one that got her to full on laugh though!! it was so darn cute. And I am serious...her laugh sounds like mine!It kind of sounds like a little boys laugh and is loud just like mine. sorry baby girl :) hahaha. We'll see if it stays that way or if it changes!

At 3 months:
-Gracie LOVES to stand up. She's not just content with laying on my chest anymore.
-she has REALLY strong legs!
-She hates tummy time. She only lasts about 3 minutes and then screams :)
-She tries SO incredibly hard to talk to people. it doesn't matter who's talking to her, she tries and tries to talk back!
-I haven't had her appt yet, but I think she's probably about 14 lbs! she's a chunker.
-She is wearing 3-6 month clothes :)
-she is such a smiley little girl. She'll smile at anyone that talks to her.
-She takes about 3, 3 hour naps throughout the day!
-she still loves her baths. when tanner and I can't figure out what's wrong, we throw her in the tub and she calms right down!
-she sucks on her fist ALL day long! it's adorable. she tries fitting the whole fist in there. doesn't quite work haha
-she still only wakes up once in the night or not at all!
-she loves to grunt
-we took her to the drive in and she loved it!
-she is growing up too stinking fast!!

 I am seriously loving this stage. I love seeing her personality shine through. I love that she chose to came down here, and that she TRUSTED me to be her mom!! what a great responsibility I have to care for her.
I love that I get to spend so much time with her
I love that she's mine
I love my Heavenly Father so much for sending her to me
I love watching her learn new things every day!
I love when she just stares at me with that milk coma look
I love the connection I feel towards her
I love that she chose me and tanner to be her parents
Man I just love....
HER!!!


Being a mom is the most frustrating, challenging, patient testing job in the world. BUT it is also the BIGGEST blessing I could EVER ask for. There's nothing better than raising my little girl. I'm trying to cherish every day I have with her.
I love you gracie girl!!!
