So, I have been horrible about posting. Sorry to all! I’ve actually written some posts and have had difficulty posting them so you may see things appear in non-sequential order. My sweet little Elaina is now three months old, and my maternity leave has officially ended. It’s hard to believe that she is already a quarter through her first year. Already, she is changing and developing so quickly. I have a box in her closet that I have slowly been filling with clothing she’s outgrown. Boy oh boy, folding all those little items and placing them in storage is certainly a lesson in not spending too much on baby clothes. You blink and they’ve outgrown them!
It’s hard to be back at work. Thankfully, I work for a great company and LOVE all the people I work with. Nonetheless, it’s hard to not be with her especially as it seems she is mastering new, exciting things with every passing day. She has started really cooing up a storm and as of Sunday, she giggled for us. She is starting to take an interest in her toys and it is amazing to watch her little eyes take inventory of what is before her. More times than not, she’ll grab a hold of anything in front of her and shove it right in her mouth (I am hoping this is just normal baby development and NOT a sign that teething is starting!)
Right now, she is sleeping like a charm. She usually goes down between 9-10 p.m, and sleeps until 7:30 or so. However, she is not yet in her crib but rather the snuggly bassinet attachment on the pack n’ play. I am thinking we’re going to be in for it when we make the jump as I’ve tried putting her down for naps in the crib to no avail. I am not going to complain too much, because she really is a great little sleeper!
