Ruby monthly update: 3 months


Weight:  About 10 lbs 8 oz

Vision: You are focusing great and love to watch mommy, daddy and your brother.

Movement: You aren't a fan of tummy time (even though you hold your head up great), but you like laying on your back and moving around your arms and legs. You've started to rest your hands on things rather than just bat at them.

Eating habits: You generally eat every 2-3 hours during the day. You eat quickly, nursing about 5 min on each side.

Sleeping patterns: You sleep through the night!! You started doing this consistently at about 10 weeks. You are in bed around 8 pm and will sleep until 7-7:30 am. You are a bit all over the place with naps. You are good at your first nap of the day around 8:30. Otherwise you are usually up for about 45 min after you eat and then you are ready for a nap. You usually nap in your crib twice a day but the others are on the go or in the rocker/mommy's arms.

Sounds/words: You're starting to make cooing sounds and "talk" to us. It's super cute!

Sibling updates: Not much of a difference here. Keegan still loves you so much!

New discoveries/accomplishments:

  • You started sleeping through the night! (started at 10 weeks)
  • You started smiling at us and we love it so much!
  • You love facing out or being up on mommy's shoulder to look around.
  • You are drooling so much!
  • You got your first scrape...big brother fell with a pretzel thin in his hand and it hit you on the forehead. 
  • You hate getting in your car seat. You cry for the first few minutes of every car ride but then settle down once we get going.

Places you went/adventures: 

  • We've started venturing out more this month. We've gone to lunch with friends several times and out to dinner as a family.
  • You went to Keegan's first soccer game and liked hanging out in the Ergo.
  • You've been out to run errands and are great just going with the flow.  
  • You celebrated daddy's birthday.
