KENNEDY’S THREE MONTH UPDATE!
Kennedy was 3 months old on December 21st, so I’m a little late in writing this. But I wanted to make sure I didn’t miss updating on what’s been going on with her in her 3rd month of life!
Kennedy Harper is currently 14 lbs 9 oz and 26″ long! She is already fitting into 6 month outfits (depends on the brand), and I’m still trying to get some use out of all the 0-3 month outfits and squeeze her in them haha! I notice this month she has been less fussy and crying less often than in the first and second months. Knock on wood though- things could change! I am breastfeeding her still and supplementing with some formula if I can tell she didn’t eat enough. She is a big eater and eats ALOT! She has been eating around 5-6 oz from a bottle every 2-3 hours. She has been drinking up to 8 ounces a couple times which is crazy, but mainly just 6 ounces. I still feed her a bottle of formula at night before bed (I love this brand), and it keeps her full throughout the night. She sleeps on average around 10-13 hours straight! Since we got back home to Texas from our Christmas vacation in California, she has been sleeping in her own room in her crib every night. I am also trying to get her to nap in her crib as well. I feel good now about having her sleep in her crib because we have the Owlet which would alert us if anything was happening, and the Nest camera! I leave the Nest camera on all night on my iPad next to my bed so I can always wake up if she is crying. But it’s so nice having her sleep in her own room now because we don’t have to tip toe around her and we can actually talk and do things before bed! haha
She has been holding her head up better and loves sitting in her Bumbo seat! She also will push up on her legs when I lift her up. She also held her own bottle for the first time a few nights ago and was drinking from it!! She loves to coo, babble and blow bubbles all the time. She also kicks and flaps her arms and has the funniest serious face when she does it! Alex and I always laugh so hard when she does it! She also LOVES bath time even more now that she is getting baths in the tub. I lay a towel down for padding and fill it up a little bit. She loves to splash and play with her toys in there. It gets her tired just in time for bed time!
She has also started laughing out loud and laughed SO hard when Alex makes funny faces and dances! Luckily, the first times she started laughing, I got it on video! I love when she laughs, and I try to get her to laugh all the time now. She also loves people and going out and about with mommy! She finds her new world so fascinating and it entertains her so much more now! XOXO
