A day in the Life....

Of a 3 month old! That's right, today is sweet Jillian's 3 month birthday!

I thought I'd document what her day was like, which is pretty much like most days. So this blog post might be a little boring for some, but I'm sure grandmothers will enjoy :) And there's some cute pics.

So Jillian woke up today at 7:15 - she usually wakes up around 7:30, but I guess she was too excited to sleep in since she's now a big 3 month old. She woke up all smiles and happy as can be, just like always :) The second picture is a little fuzzy, but I just had to post it since it's a half smile. Now that she's so aware of her surroundings, the camera is something new to her. I can have her smiling & cooing like crazy but as soon as the camera or video camera appears - she stares at the camera with that intense 'what is that' look. Which means no more smiles. She's just too curious I guess.

I fed her, then it was Bumbo and chair time.... She cant stay awake too long in the morning, so by 830ish she was back down for a nap.

She has a hard time making it past the 45 minute mark on naps (we're working on that), so she was awake at 915ish and it was swing time! She usually stays there until her next feeding, so she can be in la-la land and maybe catch another cat-nap. She ate again at 10:15, then it was play time on Baby Einstein.

After this Jillian and I usually head out for errands, but today...... Jeff came home for lunch!!

Getting sleepy again.....

It was then time for another nap - she was asleep by 11:45 and slept til 2:30!! What??!! I even fell asleep for an hour and a half. This was by far the longest nap she's ever taken! She woke up soooo happy! So after I fed her, we didn't have her usual playtime but had a little photo shoot instead.

In her crib

Ok, I have a confession: I pulled a 'Jeff' today. After our little photo shoot, I thought to myself 'the back of her dress is so cute'. Well, that's because I had it on her backwards! Yep, I pulled a Jeff. He puts more clothes on her backwards, it cracks me up.

Then it was the ever dreaded tummy time!

She is happy as can be for about 10 minutes, then she's had enough!

Then it was time for another nap and she ate at 5pm. We played for a while then we went on a long walk with Austin, since the rain finally cleared! Jeff got home around 6:30, just in time for her bath. I fed her at 7:10 and she was asleep by 745! I'll do a dreamfeed at 10pm - I finally figured out how to do that - which is the CUTEST thing ever since she's fast asleep the whole time. If tonight is like every other night, she'll wake up around 5am wanting to eat (she's eating less and less, so I'm crossing my fingers we can drop this feeding soon), I'll quickly feed her and then we'll start out tomorrow at 7:30am!

I know I've said this one million times - but she is just SO fun! She's learning so much right now, and I just love spending each day with her. What a wonderful blessing from God!
