Still Happy and Chunky at Three Months

Dear Daughter,

You're three months old now. I can't believe it. I saw some other tiny babies this week at work and you're not seeming so small anymore. You're moving around more, and squirming a lot. You aren't crawling yet but I can tell you're wanting to get around. I'm going to keep holding you as long as I can because I know I'm going to miss that someday soon. Before I know it you'll be running around and I'll need to baby proof our fireplace, nesting tables, and everything else.

You are really developing quite the personality! You still laugh and talk a lot, but now I can tell when you recognize people or things. Especially your daddy. I guess it's good you've been able to spend a lot of one-on-one time with him because I can tell you two really love each other. When I hold you and he's near by and smiles at you you'll flail your arms around, kick and smile at him. You don't really do that for me much, but I know you still recognize me.

When I come home from work you don't smile and laugh until I feed you. Then you just stare at me and smile and it makes me so happy to be back home with you.

We took you out quite a bit together this month. Our first date out together as a family was to Red Robin, and you just sat on my lap and watched us eat. You still drool a lot when we're eating around you, and lately you've been hitting the food from my hands. I can't wait until you're four month birthday cause you'll get to try some yummy dried food cereal. I've already taste tested it for you and it's actually good!

Don't tell anyone but you've already tasted watermelon, yogurt, strawberries, oatmeal, celery, and ice cream. I don't give you spoonfuls or anything but when I'm eating this stuff I'll just put a dab on my finger and let you lick it off. I did hand you the celery and you kinda sucked on it. You seem to like it all. I can't wait to feed you for real, and see what you think of everything!

You still like to play dress-up, but you and I don't get to do it as much. Your daddy does most of the dressing when I have to work. He's done a pretty good job so far. One day he brought you up to my job in your PJs thought but he said he had just given you a bath. I love when you come to visit me during my lunch breaks.

You found and love your hands now. You like to suck on them, but then sometimes I think maybe you stick it too far in your mouth or something cause you cry when you get your whole hand in there.

I bought my first toy for you. I said I wasn't going to get you a bunch of toys but I already gave in and got you some car seat rattles that are black and white, so you like to stare at them. And some bath time alphabet letters. You've started to kick your rattles but I'm not sure if you mean to. I'm still waiting to see you reach for something. I've told daddy he needs to keep practicing shaking things in front of you. I'm not sure what I'm thinking though because one day I'll probably be kicking myself and wishing you would stop grabbing things.

We're in for an adventure this month. We're going to start using cloth diapers. I'm a little scared because I don't like doing anything with poop besides flushing or throwing it away, but I think we may end up liking these better. We'll see. I've been putting them on over your regular diapers to see how they'll look, but I haven't let you go to the bathroom in them yet.

It's been a hard couple of weeks being away from you at work but it's so nice seeing you when I get home, and it's really fun seeing you and your daddy interact.

You're such a good baby, and we love you do much! I love watching you grow.

Love you with all my heart,

Mommy

Such a pretty lavender CD!

Kristina said...

She is too precious! Chunky, yes!!! We are planning on cloth diapering from day one. And we're using prefolds and diaper covers. I'm crossing my fingers that it's easy, because hubby and I just don't have the money for disposables. I hope you do a post about your cloth diapering adventures!

Christa said...

What kind of cloth diaper is that? She looks super cute in one!

*Alice Anne* said...

Good for you for trying cloth diapers! That's something that I think I might try when that time comes around, so it'd be awesome to hear how they work out for you. :)

Chantel said...

We started cloth diapers a month ago on our youngest. My daughter is currently getting acquainted with the potty. So, my son got to be the cloth diapered guy. I'm actually surprised by how easy it is, but if you want some tips, my advice would be use liners. It makes dealing with poo much easier. You put the liners in the diaper against her skin. When my son poops, all I do is pick up the liner and throw it in the diaper pail and I'm done, after washing my hands of course. A diaper sprayer is also great to have on hand. We don't have one, and I wish we did. I also soak our diapers in hot water every 3 weeks to help with any stink issues we might have. None yet!

Mel said...

She is so sweet! I used to put stuff on my fingers too for my boys....it's so fun when they start eating real food, the faces they make.:)

Mrs. Palisin said...

She's definitely chunky! I hope you like cloth diapering

Becca said...

The chubby cuteness is overwhelming. Good luck with cloth diapering! We are going to do it too, hopefully. It is just such a good thing for our budget, the baby, and the environment.

Quiana said...

Ahhhh so that's where the extra chubbiness came from - those little bites of adult food ;-) She's beautiful!

Sarah Lewis said...

We had baby #4 in February and he is our first that we have cloth diapered with! Hubby doesn't mind changing them....he just won't clean them but that's ok, I love diaper wash day. :)

millaa said...

She's getting so big and still such a cutie! I just want to hold her and give her a hug.

Elaine said...

She's probably putting her fingers in her mouth because she's teething...you should check :)

She is adorable though...and I applaud your husband on being Mr. Mommy. You have a great family!

Lilac City Momma said...

Happy 3 months! Every 3 months when they are that little is a new chapter! She is still beautiful & im excited you are doing cloth!

Sarah said...

i love that you write to her! i wanna do that someday too!

That is beautifully written, she is such a darling! I am so happy to be home with our daughter, but reading your posts in a way makes me envy that your husband and daughter get to be together more - my husband barely sees our munchkin! I guess you just can't have it all, someone's got to work! :) ecoblogz at gmail dot com

Angie said...

I just did a 3 month post a few hours ago:) My little man loves to suck on his fingers too, and also gets them a little too far in him mouth once in a while. Kudos to you for trying cloth diapers. I don't think I could do it.

Gena said...

awww She's so pretty. I am happy that you can have her visit you at work! I bet it makes going back to work easier. Myles sends kisses!

RitanSands said...

jenn this is such a sweet entry! you can just feel how much you love your little chunk, and it's adorable. asher was quite a chunk too, and btw...i lover her little back rolls. you show those little rolls girl! if there's anytime you can be chunky and not care it's now!

casadekaloi said...

Happy 3 months! :) I can't believe it.

JoAnn said...

She is a chunky thing, but very cute.

Karen said...

Just an fyi, but toys are supposed to be dangerous in a car. My husband and I had our car seat inspected after our daughter was born to make sure everything was installed correctly. AAA politely informed us that the window shades and baby mirror had to go- all could become dangerous projectiles in an accident. Pretty annoying as I'd already torn them out of the packaging. They said only soft toys like stuffed animals were okay, so long as the child is able to hold them.

Mrs. Smith said...

Her chunky folds are absolutely adorable! I love the picture of her on her tummy in the cloth diaper. So cute.

Do you think her skin is getting darker? I can't tell if it's just the photos or not.

Kat Robertson said...

Awww! She is precious... Sounds like you two have gotten off to a great start as new parents. I can totally relate to the difficulty of being away from your baby initially but that's awesome that she is able to stay with daddy! :)

Lyndsey said...

I am soooo excited to hear that you are going to try cloth diapers. I have been using them for my daughter since she was about a month old and I LOVE THEM! I cannot say enough good things about them. Sure I don't always like doing the washing but at least I don't have to rinse them yet. I will once she starts having cereal but they are so worth it.

MsBabyPlan said...

Lil J is very photogenic. She loves the camera and when filmed she just focus so well, I guess she got that from her videogenic mum!

thecookswi said...

Jenny dear, let me just say you look stunning and have you lost all your baby weight i dont think you gained much> and the lil girl is so cute. Glad you enjoying motherhood. All the best.

Chelle said...

She's so beautiful. I love her little chubbiness. :-) And I think going cloth diapers is a great idea. Great for the environment and great on the pocket. Honestly after a few changes you will get used to poo detail. ;-)

Kimmy @ kimmythingy said...

We part time cloth nappy with our little one (daytime only), he's 4 weeks old, and we started around week one. I'd love to see a post on what you have decided to use. It's a bit of a minefield at first, but once you find what works it is fabulous!!

Ashley T said...

I can't wait to see if you like cloth diapering or now. We're doing it with this one and my husband has some drawbacks but I'm totally excited to do it. We have a pretty good stash built up but I know I'm gonna need more.

MommyMonkey said...

Love your blog! So wonderful to hear that your family is getting into a routine now that you are back to work. I know it must be difficult but your daughter appears to be so happy! Congrats on being a great mom! I follow via GFC and email.

Portia said...

Aww, that little cutie is making me miss when my little girl was that tiny! Every stage is precious, even the grabbing stage- although I recommend being careful what jewelry you wear during that period. My mom never recovered her blue topaz stud my brother pulled out from her ear one day- she suspects it's lodged in his digestive tract to this day...

stumbull said...

I promise cloth diapering is so much easier than you think. I have been doing it now for over 2 months and I love it! Good Luck and she is a cutey!

Leonard Family said...

Lil J is absolutely precious! She is a very beautiful baby! You're doing an awesome job of documenting her development. Having these blog entries to look back on make scrap book journaling easier and some day I want to make our blog into some kinda of book as a keep sake for our family.

Tori said...

You are going to LOVE cloth diapering. Once you get the hang of it, you'll wonder why you ever did 'sposies. Fluffy bums are the cutest (as evidenced by the shot above!). And seriously, very little grosses me out anymore a year into CD'ing. You'll get over it, promise :) Just wait until you get obsessed with it, because it WILL happen, and you start looking at all the CD stores online and entering contests just to get more fluff :)

And I love that picture of Lil' J sitting on your newsdesk with you :)

Jamie said...

I love the curly hair! She's too cute! You'll love cloth diapering. I didn't think I could do it either. I started at 15 months with my youngest and am kicking myself for not doing it sooner. A little tip: a diaper sprayer will make it so much easier! Good luck :)

andrea v said...

She's so cute, you are a very lucky family.

Good luck with the cloth diapers. We use them and love them. The poop isn't so bad, at least until you start solids!

Adorable and chunky!

Beth said...

She's soooo cute! And I think it's awesome that you're expanding her palette already :D

So adorable!!! Once you get used to cloth diapering you'll become addicted. If you asked me years ago before I had my little ones I would have said no way. Now I currently cloth diaper a 2 year old and a 6 month old and I love it! I don't think I could ever have enough diapers lol.

girlforgotten81 said...

She is precious!! We just started cloth diapering ourselves. (Like within the last 2 weeks!) I have a 9 month old and another on the way, so we really couldn't afford not to! It really isn't nearly as bad as you would think. I was grossed out and intimidated at first, but I was pleasantly surprised at how easy and NOT smelly it is! (Until it's wash time,lol) CD's actually stink less than sposies, believe it or not! Good luck! I think you'll quickly grow to love it!

mickeyfan said...

Funny story: My friend's 20yo daughter was telling us about some people she knows who recently had a baby. And this came out of her mouth "And they have diapers that you have to REUSE. They are made out of CLOTH!" Her mother and I just looked at each other and burst out laughing. Explained that's all we used with our older kids (20yo was a "later life baby"). She was amazed.

Do you notice any poop issues when you feed citrus stuff (strawberries)? I haven't looked up what the deal is with that, I just know you aren't supposed to before 1 year - and when I did with Ryan (before I knew), he got a rash - his first ever! And I'm wondering if it was coincidence or really from the food?!

clynsg said...

You were given good advice about using the liners in the diapers. Back in the Dark Ages, when my children were babies, they were as necessary to me as baby wipes are to so many parents today. They really helped in keeping stains out of the diapers in addition to making it much easier to deal with stools. I must admit, I have never been able to understand why so many feel that cloth diapers are so hard to use--and with the new models, they are even easier now than they used to be.

When I was a kid I was disgusted when someone would taste baby food. Now I think it's smart. If your baby hast to eat it, you should at least see what it tastes like.

Good on ya for tasting the baby cereal. :)

What a cutie-pie! Red Robins is a great place for families to eat out.

It's great you're introducing her to many tastes - it will strengthen her constitution and make her more amenable to more healthier foods later

She's so dang precious you make me want one lol and I so am not going there and don't want my girls to yet either.
I always let mine taste food (and life) before the experts said to and they grew up just fine with only nasal allergies. ;)

Seeing sweet little babies brings on the baby blues for me. I'm a grandmother now but would love to do it all over again.

She is just adorable! Her face looks so kissable! Babies are the sweetest and best experience. When my kids were babies it was the best time of my life. I was so in love! Now I feel that way about my two grandbabies!
