B is 3 months

Our sweet baby girl is 3 months old and is starting to move out of the newborn/infant stage.  She's become very aware of her surroundings, always looking to see whose making noises around her and prefers to be near people.    She loves when her brothers play by her and has the biggest smile when they talk to her.  

A few of B's stats:  She weighs 12 lbs 3 ounces and is 23 inches long and is finally wearing 3 month clothes.  She takes 5oz bottles every 3-4 hours and sleeps swaddled (and in her crib during the day instead of around the house in the nap nanny or bouncer).

She started laughing this month and has THE MOST CONTAGIOUS, CUTEST laugh ever.  She actually sounds like Miles does when he laughs, which is amazing.  One way to guarantee a life out of her is when Brooks tickles her.  Check it out.

She doesn't mind getting poked and prodded at by Miles and appreciates when Gavin hold her.  

I finally finished a bow holder I made B that I started on weeks ago.  I got the idea from a friends little girls bow holder years ago and even made a friend of mine one last year.  I love it and can't help but laugh that it's already filled up and I had to make a few extra ribbons to go inside her closet with excess bows!  We don't leave home without a bow in her hair so it's an important accessory to have!

My friend, Steph, made Brooklyn her own quilt and I'm in LOVE!  I love that Steph spent her time in sewing class and at home to work on this and even learned how to applique to make the bird in the center.  I'm in love with this and know we'll cherish it forever.  I feel like this picture doesn't do the quilt justice, so just trust me when I say... it's AMAZING!!

Have I mentioned that Miles pokes Brooklyn.  He's learning to be soft and gentle and actually prefers hugging and kissing her versus terrorizing her.  He always feels the need to put her pacifer back in her mouth when it's by her side.  Hey- he's being helpful!

Another big thing Brooklyns done this month is roll over from her tummy to her back.  She loves tummy time-- as long as we time it just right.  She'll hang out on her tummy for at least 10 minutes just playing and not fussing.  She lasts as long as she can until she rolls over!  Pretty Cute!!

This is Gavin's doing.  Him and Miles were dressed up and they wanted Brooklyn to be dressed up too!

One of my new favorite pics of B!  She was styling at our company's BBQ a few weeks ago!  So girly.  We're loving it!!

Brooklyn had her 3 month ultrasound last week and we went to her urologist appointment a few days ago and were sad to find out her condition is not fixing itself.  It's actually getting worse.  We have one more ultrasound in 3 weeks for a last attempt to see if any changes will occur for the better and then we'll move forward with potential plans to remove/fix the obstruction/blockage that is in her kidney.
