3 Months Old

She's holding up four fingers over the 3 because she was definitely closer to four months old than three months when we took the picture. Children always have a way of telling the truth and throwing us under the bus no matter how young they are.

Anyway, our sweet little girl is growing up so quickly. Honestly I can't remember what all she was doing at this age but I do know that it was super cute. I'm pretty sure she was babbling, socially smiling, grabbing at toys and being the added ray of light that her mother needed each day.

2 Months Old

Anela is now 3 months old so I figured it is time to probably post her 2 month picture. As you can tell from the pictures it gets a little more difficult to get a decent one as they get bigger and can move around. She's still cute though so it doesn't really matter.

2 Month Stats:

• She weighs 11 pounds
• She is 56 cm long
• She is socially smiling
• She finally figured out breastfeeding so we are finished pumping to supplement 

A Little Behind

Finally here are some of Anela's newborn photos.

When my mother first arrived I decided that I wanted her to potty-train the boys so that I wouldn't have three children in diapers. The first day went well because it was all brand new and fun. Having a baseball toilet seat was awesome. Day two was great because they got new "big boy" underwear. Day three was a disaster and we decided to stop because it didn't seem like they were ready. What do you think?

This was their own idea. In fact they kept calling them hats and putting them on their heads. Just today we pulled them out again and back on their heads they went.

I guess we'll try again in a few months when there aren't so many changes going on in our lives. Hopefully we will have more success even if the professional potty-trainer is no longer here. Maybe it is a good thing that I will have to do it on my own. I am getting sick just thinking of having to change messy underwear.

How is that Possible?

Today Anela turned one month old and we can't believe how quickly time is passing. She brings so much joy and happiness to our lives! We had a little photo shoot for her one month birthday. Here is a commentary with a few of the photos.

Hmmm...it's hard to remember but I think I am 1 month old. Yep, I am 1 month old.

You never ask a lady her age! Wink, wink. I'm much too young to be offended by that question.

Are you done yet mom? This photo session is BORING!

Peaceful at last. That's because my brother's are not here annoying me!!!

1 Month Stats:

Height: 19.6 inches

Weight: 8 lbs 2 oz (her birth weight)

A few special things about me:

1. I can hold my head up and look all around. I'm quite nosey.

2. I rolled over twice already. It may have been a total fluke but I did it.

3. I am quite capable of winning the heart of anyone I meet.

4. I sleep through the night already and have done so since the day I came home from the hospital.

5. I almost never cry. What I do can't even be considered a cry. I let out a scream every now and again to let my mom know that I am hungry. The only time I have cried is when they pulled me out of the womb.

6. I am a great baby and my mother better be thankful for that.
