Baby, It's Cold Outside

But this smile will warm you right up! If I do say so myself, she's pretty cute!

Fiona will be 3 months old on Monday (Daddy's birthday). Time is flying since I went back to work. She is having a blast with Grandma Johnson this week and had what Grandma called a "perfect" day yesterday.

At three months, here are some of the awesome things she is doing:
  • Recognizes Mom and Dad's voices and tracks us across the room without missing a beat
  • LOVES her hands. They are a new staple in the mouth. And did you know that they can grab things and bring them to your mouth too!?! Wicked cool!
  • Giggling. We haven't really got a repeat of the laughs from her photo shoot, but she loves to do single giggles when she is really happy.
  • Starting to get ticklish. Big smiles when we tickle her belly.
  • Standing. Must be standing on our laps at almost all times.
  • Talking like crazy. Stories are getting better and better every day - and some even have happy endings now.
  • Asserting her will. Mike turned her the other day to stop her from watching TV and she practically did a back bend to get her face where she could see it.
  • Playing with Yogi. She is starting to talk to him and put her hands on him on purpose.
  • Doing sit ups. Our new favorite exercise while sitting on laps or playing on the floor.

We are loving this stage and are so proud of her.

That is the cutest picture! I am wondering what Yogi's response to this increased attention from Fi is?

For the most part, he likes it. Although is still not entirely sure about this little thing that you can't lay on, is noisy, and steals Mom and Dad's attention ;-)
