Hi again!!!
I know I keep promising to post more often but there’s just not a lot of time between work and keeping up with Sydney. But thanks for checking back in again!
So Sydney is now 3 and a half months old!!! That is so hard to believe. She is just an amazing baby! Her world is now full of smiles, holding up her head, and of course… lots of drool!
I love reading about “baby milestones” and what she should be able to do when. I know all babies are different but it really gives us a good idea of what’s to come. So, for the parents out there, I’d love to hear about your milestone stories. Let me know about some of the upcoming milestones we have to look forward to and when they happened for your little bundles of joy.
Here are some more recent pictures… hope you enjoy!!!

At that age, our daughter was turning over from back to tummy, but didn't turn from tummy to back until she was almost 5 months. At 4.5 months, she would reach out for things that caught her eye. But at Sydney's age, she was laughing out loud and truly responding to various silly things we did. She discovered her hands at about 2.5 months, and at 15 weeks everything was tested by being tasted.
Enjoy this time because at about 22 weeks, our girl cut her first tooth. That was a cranky time. She also got a light case of chicken pox about the same time, so our situation may have been worse than normal. However, it was like we suddenly had lost the book and didn't know what to do for her.
Write down everything you can. You'll not be able to recall all of it any other way. And they will do some crazy things. For example, for about 3 days, our baby started bowing to us like she was from the Orient. She would do it, then we would do it, then she would repeat it. About the 4th day, she didn't do it again and never did again. But for a few days, she stopped being American, and was a very gracious Geisha.
