3.5 months

I can't believe how much Arlee is changing everyday. These last 2 weeks she has gone through so many phases and they go so fast! 2 weeks ago at her blessing she was still sticking out her lizard-long tongue like crazy, but then she abruptly stopped. I think the Mortensens taught her how to talk LOUD. Sunday night she started talking loud to Grandpa Andy and then all week everything that came out of her mouth was LOUD! it was so funny. When she'd play under her activity gym, it was like her toys had cotton in their ears and she was trying to get their attention. She's also been rolling on her sides a lot and she doesn't hate tummy time anymore! A big Woot Woot! So I think the rolling over will come soon. She's been looking for something to naw on (usually its our fingers or hands) so we got her a teether. She can hang on to it and usually hold it in her mouth. She really likes it. Oh and she LOVES her play gym. She quickly figure out how to grasp onto the toys. She can hold one in each hand and pull them around and make her little sun make its noises. Lately she has been holding onto the toys with her hands and playing with the other toys with her feet. The last two days she has been sucking on her bottom lip, making gurgling noises and blowing bubbles. She has also figured out how to just suck on two of her fingers instead of her whole fist. Oh my goodness, watching all her changes makes me so proud to be her mommy. It also makes me sad that she is growing so fast. She now eats about every 3 hours (until evening time when she wants to eat more often). And she eats pretty fast now...Only about 20 min. tops. I was worried at first, but she keeps gaining weight and she never acts hungry after so she has just gotten to be a quick eater like her Daddy. My pregnancy seems like such a long time ago, and it is crazy to think about a time when I didn't know her and get to see her sweet smile. I am so grateful for our little darling.

She really likes to hang onto us these days and will search and reach out until she makes contact.
