3 months...

I know this is almost a week late, but hey life is busy! 
 
Can you believe 3 months have already passed?  Me either!
 
These sweet baby girls are such a blessing to us and we love watching them grow everyday!
 

I really love seeing how they are both becoming more aware of each other.  Always looking at/for one another and grabbing onto one another while doing playtime, etc.  It is so sweet!  I pray daily that they will have a strong and close bond and will be each others best friend always!


Miss Reese:
 

  • As you can see this sweet girl is getting so strong and holding her head up like a champ!  She actually enjoys tummy time these days!  We are so proud and excited watching her build those neck muscles.  The stronger her neck gets the easier it will be to work on correcting her torticollis.
  • Speaking of torticollis, she is still receiving physical therapy once a week and we are seeing small improvements.  She is always very stiff when she wakes up and we do our stretches throughout the day and by evening she seems great.  Then overnight she tends to tense right back up.  I wish I could stay up all night and make sure she doesn't bring that ear and shoulder together, but I know that's not realistic.
  • She is smiling and laughing all of the time! 
  • Cooing is also a new favorite hobby!  I love listening to them go on and on!
  • Still sleeping good we put them down around 1030 and they are waking around 7.  They eat and fall straight back to sleep for a little bit.
  • We are still swaddling, but Miss Reese has been showing signs that she may be ready for the swaddling to end!  I think we will probably take the swaddle away here in the next few weeks.
  • She is constantly sucking on her hands
  • Still wearing size 1 diapers and newborn clothes.  Slowly fitting into more and more 0-3 month outfits
  • She is rolling onto her left side constantly. 

Miss Morgan:
 
  • She is getting better with tummy time each day.  Still not a huge fan of it.  I try to keep her on her tummy as much as I can to help her build that neck strength and also to get her off her back.  Her little head has a pretty decent flat spot right now!  Pretty much the same as Parkers so I am sure it will round itself out eventually.
  • Miss Morgan is always all smiles.  She is so happy and its rare not to catch her with a smile or a giggle!
  • She is constantly moving her legs and lifting her little bottom trying to roll to her side, but hasn't quite made it.  I think she will be there anyday!
  • Cooing is also a new favorite hobby!  I love listening to them go on and on!
  • Still sleeping good, we put them down around 1030 and they are waking around 7.  They eat and fall straight back to sleep for a little bit.
  • We are still swaddling and Morgan still seems to love it!  Rarely trying to break free!
  • She is constantly sucking on her hands
  • Still wearing size 1 diapers and newborn clothes.  The 0-3 months still tend to swallow this little lady.  Its amazing what a few ounces can do when it comes to baby clothes fitting!
Love these sweet girls with everything in me and cannot believe they are already 1/4 of a year old.  Yes, I think about it like that and make myself even more depressed at how quickly the time goes!!
