Mio is three months old today — our little sweetheart is growing fast! 🙂
(I’ll be taking photos of Mio sitting in my white desk chair and wearing her monthly onesie every month until she’s one year old.)

The Rundown at Three Months…
Stats: You’re getting pretty heavy to hold lately, since you now weigh approximately 14 lbs and 10 oz! We can’t believe you have almost doubled your weight since birth, and we can’t help but marvel at how much you’ve grown in these past three months. You graduated to size 2 diapers a couple weeks ago. You have rolls all over and Daddy comments on your “thunder thighs,” but don’t worry — that chubbiness is only temporary, and it just adds to your squeezability; we are enjoying it while we still can!
Things You’re Doing Now: Now that you are three months and at the end of what some call “the fourth trimester,” you are definitely more alert and active! You are constantly turning and craning your neck to see things, and can recognize where sounds are coming from and look towards them. While spending two weeks at your grandparents’ house in Mommy’s hometown of Vienna, you got to meet lots of new people and got a lot more lovin’ and social interaction — you started smiling so much more while we were there! You’ve started to exercise your vocal cords more, too — you were making some babbling sounds as you looked into everyone’s faces. You’re beginning to be able to sit upright for short periods of time when propped up by pillows. You’re also starting to use your hands more, gripping things in your fist… which ultimately always end up by your mouth, where you start sucking on whatever you have gotten a hold of. Lately, you like to blow spit bubbles with your lips — which, by the way, are so plump and voluptuous that Mommy’s friends have commented that they would give Angelina Jolie a run for her money!
