Elizabeth is Three Months Old!

posing on Thanksgiving day
smiling at her toys

just waking up from a nap
enjoying Saturday morning cartoons with Madilynn - ha!
hanging out with Madilynn
(Madilynn took this picture)
Still sleeping through the night (9:30-6:00) yeah, yeah!!
For the most part she is a very happy baby. She eats 6 5oz. bottles a day, is awake for an hour to an hour and a half to play, then she naps for about an hour and a half in between each feeding.
She likes to be in the sitting up position, preferably looking out so she can see everything. Only likes to be cradled in your arms when she is being fed, no other time!

Just recently she has found her hands. She raises them up and looks at them, then they go straight to her mouth where she tries to cram both of her fists in her mouth. She has also just found her tongue and she'll lick her hands, and stick out her tongue when she smiles or just playing. She loves to babble and talk and can carry on quite the conversation! Just this morning I was playing with her and sticking out my tongue and she stuck her tongue out and then smiled at me!

We've been trying to see if we can get her to giggle or cackle out. We've found her ticklish spot just under her chin, and have gotten her to cackle just a few times, sometimes she'll do it just watching us laugh! Here's a video of some babbling and cackling!

Where are you guys moving? To another place in Ames, I hope. ;) How exciting for you to have Michael finishing up school!! Yay!!

Not that my boys aren't sweet, just different having boys vs. girls. ;)
