3 MONTHS OLD...



I know I am posting this update a little late but we had such an exciting week with the arboretum, and the severe weather that I am just now getting to it. Anyway…here is the 3 month update for Little Miss Landry.

In her 3 short months of life she has learned so many things. Ashton loved Landry before, but now that Landry can interact a little bit, it makes it so much more fun! Ashton is Landry’s favorite person in the world and this just melts my heart! I know I am a typical mommy but I can’t help it. I love when Landry giggles because Ashton is singing to her, or talking to her, or dancing with her…it is priceless. In fact…everyday when we go to pick Ashton up from school, we have to get there kind of early (so we don’t get stuck in the back of the pick up line and in the carpool mess) and unless Landry is asleep she fusses while we wait. As soon as Ashton gets in the car and starts to talk to her, Landry stops fussing and puts on the biggest grin her little face can make!

One of her nicknames this month could be “Master LP”. Landry has mastered the art of SMILING and LAUGHING and she does it all the time!! When she smiles she smiles so big that her whole face lights up. She has also mastered the bottom lip pout (one of these days we will catch it on camera and share) right before she cries…it is really kind of cute! She is a master thumb-sucker (but she is random with it). She is also a master sleeper-through the-nighter! This one is really nice in our house! She also likes to talk a lot…which is one of the sweetest sounds you’ll ever hear! We have this on video and one of these days I’ll figure out how to put it on our blog.

As for nicknames…it seems that with each month she gets more and more. Here are some that we call her:
Lan-Lan…this is what Ashton mostly calls her
LP…One of Bobby’s faves (Landry Paige)
Chunky Monkey…when she is hanging out in her diaper or being changed
Punky-Doo…I call her this as a spin off from punkin and I don’t know why
Punkin (because of her jaundice)…this is what I normally call her
Mama…Bobby and Ashton use this one
Smurf …she was blue and bruised when she was born so this one isn’t used much anymore…bobby gave this one to her.
It is amazing how one little baby can be called so many different things.

She is on a 3 hour feeding schedule during the day which equals to 5 feedings a day. Her last feeding of the day is at 8:00 pm and she sleeps soooo good at night. Unfortunately, nursing is how she falls asleep. I am going to have fun breaking her of that one of these days…and not looking forward to it…yuck-a-doo! For the last two nights she has slept until 7:15am and 7:30am straight through!!!!

Okay, so I think I have rambled long enough…now for the best part of a blog post….PICTURES! Bobby took Landry’s pictures in her chair this month and they made me laugh so I thought I would post them all for you to enjoy as well!

Little LP is such a doll baby! I just love her to pieces! I'm enjoying getting to see all these tiny baby milestones that I missed with Ashton since you were in COLORADO!!!!!!!!!!
