3 Months Old!!!

Wow! Graycen is 3 months old already!!!!! She is doing so well. She is such a sweet and happy baby, we could not have asked for more. She presently weighs approximately 16 pounds (yikes!) which puts her above the 95th percentile for weight and at her last doctor's visit she was almost 26 inches long which puts her in the 85th percentile for height. She is already in six months clothing. She is really thriving developmentally. She is cooing and starting to babble some. She is starting to reach for objects and is very interactive and social. She loves to stand up on your lap and is really stronger that I thought a 3 month old would be. She is also finding her thumb more and more each day. I think she is going to be a bookworm too! When we read books at night, she stares intently at the pages. And I have heard the same thing from Joanie and Gigi when they read books to her during the day. I am going to go to the library to get some more books, so that we can spice up her repetoire a little bit (okay, so maybe it is so mommy doesn't get bored reading the same books over and over again). We have established a schedule and she is finally in her own room. My mom and Lenny were hounding me to get her in there since she was sooo squinched in her bassinet. And, I must admit, she sleeps much more soundly in her own room. Anyway, she goes to bed around 8:00 each night and awakens around 7:00 am. It is nice that Lenny and I can have some evening time to ourselves again. Oh yeah, one more update. We think Graycen officially has her first boyfriend. She saw Tad one night at Bernie and Michelle's and gave him the sweetest eyes I have ever seen...and what does Tad do? He blows her a kiss. It was the cutest thing ever! I think we might have to watch these two in a few years!
