3 Months

Well somehow this beautiful girl has turned 3 months old! I find it to be completely crazy to say the least. I also can't seem to get over how in love with her I am, its been interesting for me to see how things are different with Abigail. I for the first time don't mind nursing which is weird to me, Abby nurses and takes a bottle because my milk supply is so low and I'm on medication this time to increase my supply. I find that if I don't nurse I miss it and I miss having that time with her. I'm excited that I finally feel this way because with the other two girls I wasn't the biggest fan of nursing. I also don't seem to mind getting up at night with Abby at all, I actually enjoy the time together with her. Abby is a joy in our home, when she was about a month old I was a little worried because she wanted to be held all the time and would cry if you weren't paying attention to her. This lasted for about a month and a half and I really wondered how I was going to get anything done because I couldn't hold her all the time. Sometimes I'd just have to lay her down and let her cry so I could go to the bathroom, help the girls, or just make dinner. Thankfully when we got back from our trip to Utah she got over the need to be held all the time and has become content laying by herself and looking around. Her big sisters love to entertain her and are usually singing her songs or asking if they can hold her or feed her a bottle. At Abby's 2 month check up she was 11lbs and I couldn't believe it, she's also quite long. She also rolled over for the first time 2 days ago. It took her all day but she managed to finally do it and she was very proud of herself. The whole time she was grunting and almost crying but once she got onto her stomach she was as happy as could be. Rolling over has not become a set skill for her yet but within a month I'm assuming she'll be a pro at it. Abby is a very good combination of Savannah and Olivia, I can tell she'll be a bit more independent and probably stubborn like Savannah but she has a sweetness about her like Olivia. Abby smiles ALL. THE. TIME. I love her smile and she gives it to me willingly. Its amazing to see the love that she already has for all of us and she recognizes us. She adores the girls and loves when they are near her, she also adores Jacob and is happy to sit with him for hours. He is of course taking full advantage whenever he can because snuggling with his girls is one of his favorite things and the older ones don't snuggle with him enough. Even though this is our third baby it still amazes me how much I fall in love with each new addition and how as soon as they're here I can't imagine our lives without them. Abigail is the perfect addition to our family and I'm excited to enjoy each and every moment with her that I can.
