3 month stats

Holland has been sick for the past week. It's her first cold and it has been so sad. She's on the mend now but last week she was so miserable that I took her to the doctor. I was hoping that she had something bacterial that antibiotics could fix, but it was a virus. At the doctor she weighed in at 15 lbs 8 oz! At this age Carly weighed 13 lbs 6 oz and I thought she was so chubby! It's so fun to see the similarities and differences in my little girls.

My baby is 3!

I can’t believe Carly is already 3!  She is such a big girl now with a big personality!  She cracks us up all the time with what she says and does.  Here are some of her favorites:

Book:  She loves Magic School Bus books.

Food:  Mac and Cheese (pronounced “macamoni”)

Movie: Tangled

Color: Pink!

She loves doing puzzles,  playing “kitchen”, and reading books.  She also LOVES Little People.  She loves playing with her cousins and her cousin Sadie is her best friend.  She asks to go to Aunt Brooke’s house and play with Sadie like 5x a day!  If anyone messes with Sadie she will take them down (really).  She tries to do everything on her own, and often gets into trouble doing this.  We love our Carly Gwen so much!

3 months!

I love her belly!

Holland is still an angel baby.  She has been an awesome sleeper, rarely cries, and smiles all the time.  She loves her pacifier, and now loves to suck on her fingers and whatever else she can shove into her mouth.  She loves grabbing onto her little blankie, and nuzzling into it and falling asleep… All I have to do to get her to sleep is hand her her blankie and pop her paci in and she’s out – which was the total opposite of Carly so I am very appreciative!  She will never fall asleep while she’s nursing so I’m very glad that she can calm herself down and fall asleep on her own.

Carly has been a great big sister.  It took good a 2 months for her to start liking Holland, but now she gives her lots of loves and will put Holland’s pacifier back in her mouth if it ever falls out.

Jordan

Our Wisconsin friends, the Wehrhahns,  came out to Utah for their daughter’s wedding reception and to drop their son off at the MTC last week.  Their daughter Jordan was in my Primary class in the Lake Michigan ward and always would help me out with Carly at church.  Jordan came over to play with Carly and Holland while they were here. It was so fun to see Jordan again, and Carly was in heaven playing with someone who would do anything that she wanted and give her tons of attention!
