Well, well, well, yesterday, 12-10-11, at 2:28am, Miss Chloe Giovanni officially became a three-month-old. I can't even describe how that feels inside. She's awesome. She learns how to do something new like every single day (even fun small things, like blowing raspberries, and effectively spitting all over people). She's getting used to just "being here". I think we can probably stop swaddling her now because of that, and I know Marshall's sells baby sleep sacks so I will be picking some of those up soon.
No doctor's appointment this month. She'll get one next month though. She's pretty much all caught up on weight charts now, I'm sure. She's been in some of her 3-6 month sized clothes for a week or so now, and definitely getting bigger and heavier every day. Her earrings haven't caused her any problems, which is awesome. We think she may have started teething with the amount of drool and hand chewing and coughing due to the amounts of drool, and fussiness she's having. It's some kind of amazing...this whole process of life...
Chloe got her big girl bed. Well, not exactly her big girl bed (we already have a twin bed she can graduate to), but her grandmother got her a crib. My dad got her the mattress (and he's coming to town for Christmas, ^_^), so now we have a crib to put together.
I'm having bittersweet feelings towards the change though. While I'm super excited that she has a bed and we have a sheet and a sheet protector so we can set it up whenever and move her in, I'm going to miss her. I used to like pulling her in with me after a feeding or before I was warm enough to get up yet. Now, she's going to be all the way in another room :-(. I'm sure I'll get used to it though. I can still have my little innocent, open-mouthed, passed out little girl to hold before I put her down for the night ^_^.
I never imagined having such a happy little girl. I thought the bits of stress (I did kind of lose my mom and then get married) I went through would have made her an entirely different person than she is. She's the sweetest little smiley thing though. I could imagine how hard it is to take care of kids when you're younger or not supported like we are, but this has been a very awesome time in my life and this baby is amazing.
