Oh goodness, where did my baby go?!?!? I keep looking at these pictures from this month and I can’t believe how much she has changed since we brought her home from the hospital. This has without a doubt been the fastest 3 months of my entire life, and I’m afraid to blink because she grows and changes so much every day!
We had a bitter sweet start to the month, and said good-bye to Great Grandma Sally. We are so grateful that she is in Heaven with Great Grandpa Merle, and no longer in pain, but we will miss her dearly. Addison got to meet her a few weeks before she passed away, and she was so in love with her! I’ll forever treasure the time we spent together.

GROWTH
We haven’t been back to the pediatrician since our 2 month check, but according to our scale at home Addi weighs right around 11 pounds. We are in between our newborn and 3 month clothes, but I think this weekend we are going to make the jump to only 0-3 month clothes. She’s a peanut, but selfishly I’m so happy she’s stayed little this long. It makes it seem like she isn’t growing up so fast!
EAT
We have definitely started eating more this month! I was concerned that Addi wasn’t getting enough when she was breastfeeding, so I started almost exclusively pumping (I still breastfeed during the middle of the night & on the weekends). It was an easy transition since I went back to work and was already pumping 3+ times a day. I also noticed a small dip in my supply, and even had to dip into my freezer stash, so I started taking Legendairy supplements. They gave my supply just the boost it needed! You can find them here on Amazon.
CLOTHES
Our transition to 3 month clothes has gone slower than I expected, but we have started wearing a few of our new outfits. I have the tote ready to pack up her newborn clothes, but I’m holding off because I don’t want to acknowledge the fact that she’s growing up!
PLAY & DEVELOPMENT
Not too much to add to this category yet, but we did see a few changes this month. Addi loves to look at patterns, especially if they are black and white. She also loves her music (we got an Amazon Echo dot for Christmas and it has been a life saver for playing her lullabies), and she loves her swing (which has been a lifesaver for when I get ready in the mornings!). We also love our play mat!
