Kennedy's new tricks

Wow - our girl is 3 months old today! Unbelievable! I really can't get over how quickly it has gone by, and I already feel like a broken record saying that just 3 months in. It seems like every day that passes, she is learning something new and getting so much stronger. Kennedy has discovered her hands and tongue in the last couple of weeks, and the combination of those two discoveries makes for one slobbery little girl - thank goodness for burp cloths! She also is gaining more muscle control, and she definitely prefers to be sitting or standing most of the time (except for when she is lying on her play mat looking at herself - she still loves that!). When she is lying on her back, she does these little baby crunches where she curls her back and lifts her shoulders up like a sit up, and she gets so frustrated sometimes that she can't just sit all the way up yet. I have a feeling it won't be too long though.

Tummy time - not exactly her favorite thing, but she can now lift her head to look straight in front of her, as well as side to side.

Sitting in the Bumbo unassisted - that is, until the cheeks start to weigh her down. And you'll notice she already has her "Mom, enough with the pictures" face perfected.


And her favorite position - standing. And I have to say, this one is pretty darn cute because she looks like such a little person standing there, rather than just a baby. And she loves it, so she is almost always smiling, which makes it worth it no matter how tired Mommy's arms get. :)
