^ Her scrunched up smile gets me every time
^She was trying to roll to her tummy during these photos!
We didn't get an actual shot of her on her side, but this one above as she was going for it.
A few days late, but not too bad! On the 3rd our babe turned 3 months! It has been such a joy having Paige apart of our family. All the time I look at our girls and think we're so lucky to have them.
Size: We are finishing up the last bit of size 1 diapers and then we'll be moving onto size 2. She's wearing a small amount of size 3 clothing, but most clothes labeled 3-6, 6, 6-9 and 6-12 fit her. The next wellness check scheduled is her 4 month, so I'll have official weight and height stats for the next update.
Eating: This last month we didn't give Paige a bottle...which we need to work on! She's therefore been exclusively breastfed. She can easily be distracted if we're around Ellie during a feeding, but all in all she's still a pretty efficient eater!
Sleep: Right after Paige turned 2 months she started consistently sleeping through the night!! She's been averaging 10 hours straight a night! Ellie was doing the same thing at this age and we know we're super lucky for this. Some random nights she'll wake at an earlier time for a diaper change and feeding, but that is rare. I have found the sweet spot for her bedtime; we'll start getting ready around 6pm and she'll going down between 6:30 and 7pm. It kind of varies when exactly she'll wake in the early morning, but she'll always go back down for another 1-3 hours. She'll nap 2-4 times a day, varying in length and time - 30min-3 hours long. Thankfully she'll take a longer nap when Ellie does, too. Granted, she'll be in our arms for that one most days, so she's kind of guaranteed a nice one at least once a day. She's still swaddled as well which does help. And I've been trying to pay better attention to the length of time she's been awake already.
