Eden Amelia is Three Months Old!

Wow!  It is really difficult to keep up with a blog when you have an infant!  Eden is a happy baby but she really enjoys being held and has gotten to the point lately that she needs constant entertainment.  I am currently trying to break her of this but that's another story for a different day...

Eden turned three months old last Friday, May 23.  She is a growing girl and such a delight to be around.  I want to write a whole post on all of our breastfeeding difficulties and how we have overcome them.  For now, I will just say that she is breastfeeding wonderfully and I could not be happier.  I have never conquered a more challenging obstacle in my entire life!  Otherwise, she is a bit difficult to get to sleep currently but once she's sleeping, she sleeps very well.  I can honestly say that I am not sleep deprived at all!  I expect this to change once I go back to work this Friday.  I don't really want to talk about that right now, either! Hah!  In other great news, Eden is now pooping on a regular basis.  I have to say, I really enjoyed only changing one poopy diaper a week but I am also glad that her intestines do not seem to be bothering her much at all anymore.

Here is the darling, adorable little munchkin on her three month birthday:


Three Months Old!
Weight: 11 lbs., 12 oz.
Length:  22 3/4 in. (as of a month ago...hasn't been measured since)
Head Circumference: 16 in. (as of a month ago...hasn't been measured since)
Still in size 1 diapers & has definitely grown too big for newborn clothes!

Eden is very alert & expressive.
Loves to smile & "talk" a lot.
Loves to hold on tight to her taggy blanket, her bunny lovey or anything else she can grab onto (burp cloth, blanket, shirt, etc.).
Not sitting up (with support, of course) quite yet but has good head & neck control.

Here are a BUNCH of pictures from the last month (in no particular order):

"Woe is me!"

Smiley baby!

Playing on my mat, thanks Nana!

Sleeping like a little angel (this didn't last long)

Staring at Tita Bones intently!

Knocked out on G-Pops (or Corn Pops) after he worked very hard to get me to sleep!

So sleepy!

Cuddles!

She's just so peaceful when she's sleeping!


Making funny faces!
