Happy 3 Months Baby Girl!



I cannot believe our baby girl is already 3 months old!!! Time seriously flys! Since going back to work I can honestly say, absense makes the heart grow fonder. When I am away from her I miss her like CRAZY but when I get to see her, its the best feeling in the world and I can honestly say I appreciate our time together so much more. She has been doing so well. According to BabyCenter, we read her milestone charts every month and she is fitting into the Advanced category... I dont mean to brag, but I am seriously so proud of her...

You can see at the 3 month category what the Advanced Skills are, and she is doing all three of them!! On Memorial day she rolled over for the first time and we caught it on video!! So awesome. I truly believe having her on a good schedule, giving her play time everyday has really helped with her advancements!

I love my baby girl soooo much. I have never been so happy in my life. Happy 3 month's baby girl!! Momma and Daddy love you more than words. <3
