Lily is 3 months!

...well over 3 months ;) It is so insane how quickly time passes by! It is more crazy how Lily changes every day. We went to Jax this past weekend for Ty's birthday and my Mom couldn't believe how she had changed just in the few days it had been since she saw her. She has definitely mastered rolling over from her tummy to her back. With a little cheer from us after she whines a bit, she rolls over rather well to her tummy from her back. Not very close to mastering it though. She holds herself up pretty well, it might be because of her girly figure haha. Not sure where she gets it from, but she is a rather long, skinny thing. I took her to the pediatrician last week as a precaution. She has been stuffy on and off, but it was always clear and I know people have been having allergy issues. She also has had pretty dry, blotchy skin. It didn't seem to be getting better, so I took her in. She was 23 inches long and 11.6 lbs. The doctor said the dry skin wasn't getting better because the poor kid has my skin. She suggested I use non-fragrant, non-soap wash and lotion. So we handed out all of our delicious smelling Johnson & Johnson to our great friends, The Schwarz's and bought some Eucerin. After just a few days of switching, it has already gotten much better! Yay! Here is her birth-3 month photo :)

She is still loving the pool and water. It is usually always warm enough now for her to swim, which is great. She even got some swimming in at Mimi & Peepaw's this weekend. She swam a lot on Memorial Day here at our pool. Nana & Pop came over to swim with her and she had a blast. Mom even got a pick of her in her anchor diaper for Aunt Jamie Lee and Great Grandpa Harting. The bath picture is her after the swim. She was so wore out, she passed out in the bath! Haha. Speaking of them, Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa will be here soon to see Lily for the first time! So exciting!

Lily has been grabbing very well at things too. She was just pissing herself off by taking her pacifier out of her mouth, but now she is beginning to get it back in (thank goodness!). Aunt Jamie tickles her with her hair a lot and we all knew it was just a matter of time before she can get a hold of that, well today it happened...but to Mommy haha. She had two fistfuls of my hair and we needed Daddy's help to unclamp her haha. She also loves the TV, which isn't new but she focuses on it for much longer now and even laughs. She is mesmerized by the computer, iPad and apparently even my phone. Today JF was letting her play with it and she loved it! I noticed an airline ticket to Japan on my amex, so I need to keep an eye on her ;)

We put Lily in her own crib in her room this week also. She has been in the pack n play in our room. She has started grunting a lot in her sleep and sometimes waking herself up. Last week she was sleeping 5-6 hours and waking up. We have been lucky and she has usually slept 7+ hours most nights. Of course now that she is growing close to the time when she should be sleeping through the night, she is waking up! JF and I have been sleeping in the guest room right across from her room for the last two nights (c'mon, Im trying! haha). I also bought rice cereal and put a half teaspoon in her bottle last night. She slept for 7 hours so I am hoping it is working! She eats about every 2.5-3 hours during the day so it doesn't really surprise me she is getting hungry at night. We have also been trying to let her put herself to sleep. Of course this doesn't work well when we wait too long and she is very tired, but she is doing great. She put herself to sleep after laying in her crib for a few minutes three times today! Some times it was easier and quicker than others, but nonetheless she is doing it!

She loves playing in her tent outside that she got from Grand-Maman and Grand-Papa. It really helps her stay cool. She also has no hair haha. She is balding on the side and the top just keeps getting longer. She sports a mo-hawk most of the time unintentionally. She also got some sunglasses! She doesn't keep them on for long unless we are actually out in the sun. It is funny how she already can put the two together and leave them on. 

We also posted a video to Publix for a photo contest. You can vote for Lily here https://www.facebook.com/publix/app_266519243513101?&app_data=eyJwYXRoIjoidm90ZVwvMTEzNiJ9 if ya want. You can vote once a day, every day until July something. I am not even sure if or what we win, but I just saw the link and with no work for the summer, there is only so much laundry, etc you can clean when she is sleeping haha. I hope everyone has a great week!
