I can't believe Rya is going to be 3 months old in a few days. She went to the doctor a few days ago to have her eye looked at again because it's still oozing. It's just a blocked tear duct and it should open up as she grows and gets bigger. She weighed in at a whopping 10.8 pounds! She is getting so big! We work on tummy time almost every day and we have been working really hard to keep her on a strict nighttime routine. She is a pretty good sleeper so we can't complain too much. Now if I could just figure out the daytime routine, we'd be good to go. :)


She is holding her head up pretty good. It gets heavy for her when she's tired, but overall she is pretty steady. She loves sitting up like a big girl and I'm trying to encourage it more and more. I just prop her up in the corner of our
chair...the arm rest is prefect height for her head. She enjoys it for about 10 minutes and then she wants to be held again. She loves trying to grab at things...especially my hands. Of course anything she gets a hold of goes straight into her mouth. She has a good little grip. She is cooing and babbling a lot more. She LOVES the morning and is full of smiles as we sing "Good Morning!" to her. She is enjoying the evening more and more, but still has her occasional meltdown when she's over tired. She is also starting to laugh a little more which is always nice. We are heading to Venice, FL next week for a long weekend. We are all looking forward to seeing the family and getting some sunshine on our skin. I'm sure the 8 hour drive will be more like 10 or 12, but we aren't in a hurry and are going to try to enjoy every minute of it. When we get back, I'll post the pictures. xoxo
