Carol is THREE months old!

A little better late than never...

Carol Joy is 3 months old!

... we stopped nursing, and wow, have you chunked up since then! (Well, chunky for a Montgomery girl baby!). You have gained a double chin and small rolls on your legs!
... you are smiling all of the time! (but not in the above picture...you had just woken up!) You live up to your middle name of Joy!
...you love to babble and talk to all of us.
...your eyes are still blue....hmmm....we always thought that there was no way we could have any children who weren't brown hair and brown/hazel eyes, but so far you are breaking our expectations! They haven't changed in the slightest, so we'll see what the next few months bring!
...for the most part, you sleep until 4-5, eat and then sleep again for another 1-2 hours. However, the last couple of weeks of this month, you have been a VERY loud sleeper, keeping mommy awake although you don't remember it at all.
...when you do wake up to eat, I love laying you down on the changing table and watch you slowly wake up. After stretching, you finally open your eyes and see me...and reward me with the biggest, happiest smile, like I just made your day!
... you can claim at least one thing that you did before your big sister: you flew on an airplane this month! You joined mommy and nana on a trip to Pittsburgh to see a friend get married. You were an excellent traveler! In fact, on the way back, you fell asleep as we were lifting off in the air, and stayed that way until we deplaned. We were able to strap your carseat into the seat next to us on the way home, so that helped!
