Life With Nia: Three Months Old

• Baby's Weight: Nia's next appointment isn't until November 30 so I'm going to guess she's about 15lbs

• Baby's Height: Not sure, maybe 24"

• What size of clothing does baby wear? She's comfortably in 3-6 months now; her feet are so long though so I have some 6-9 months right on hand, but definitely need to go shopping! We have some giftcards and discount coupons so thinking of going out this weekend.

• Any milestones baby reached during the month:  
• Nia can definitely get from point A to point B on her tummy; it's kinda scary actually, and I saw her almost go over the edge of the bed once!
• She can scream - LOUD! She's definitely finding her voice, and we see it in her face when she realizes she's reached "optimal sound"
• As seen in the video above, she's giggling so much now; it's fun to make her laugh.
• She's definitely teething; we saw the beginnings of it when she was only 4 weeks old with the amount of spit she generated and now she's constantly chewing on her hands, my shoulders - ANYTHING!
• I'm now carrying Nia in her Moby facing me and she loves it! She falls asleep while watching me do chores while wearing her.

• Special outings baby had during the month: Nia goes along with me to my Saturday mom's church group; she really likes the ceiling fan at the leader's house - it's so cute to see her look up at it! She also went along with me and Uka to our friends Maria and Greg's Halloween party; she was a good sport!

• What are your thoughts about the past month? I can't believe how much Nia's personality has come out! Uka and I get sad seeing how fast she's growing. I feel like she's more curious now too - I like carrying her around showing her different things. She really looks interested!

• What was baby's routine? Same as the last update: Nia's sleeping consistently overnight in her co-sleeper from about midnight until 5a.m. She's taking shorter, more frequent naps during the day. She's happiest around 6-9a.m. which she thinks is playtime! I put her in bed between us at that time and she babbles and coos. Her hands keep her entertained most of the time.

• Reflect about the highlights of the month: Wearing her facing me in her Moby is the best! I relish in everything about her from her toes to her fingers. Just seeing changes in how big her nail beds are getting amazes me and to see her fat rolls makes me smile =)

• Did any big changes occur, such as baby started daycare, stopped nursing, slept through the night, etc... No

• What are baby's favorites - toy, food, person, etc... Our friend Maria brought over a monkey puppet (nicknamed "Monkey Beast" from a horror movie we watched at Maria's for Halloween!) and Nia LOVES it! She laughs and talks to it. I'll have to do a video of her interacting with it.
