A quick update



I haven't updated lately on what Miss Mary Claire has been up to! First off....I think she is at the point of sleeping through the night! For the past week or so she has slept from an average of 10pm to about 5am! Yippee! It varies by 30 or so minutes, but it has been pretty consistent! Finally!!!!

Mary Claire wants to sit up ALL the time. When she is laying flat on her back she is doing little crunches, lifting her head and shoulders off the floor/couch/etc to try to sit up. Even if she is reclined in her swing or bouncy seat she tries to sit straight up! Crazy girl....you aren't even 4 months old yet!! She is LOVING sitting in her Bumbo seat, being able to look all around. She is doing wonderfully with her head and neck control!


When Mary Claire is in the right mood she will lay on her activity mat or sit in her bouncy seat for a good 20-30 minutes just playing with the toys dangling down! She loves to reach up and grab them! It is amazing how fast babies learn!


We have been giving Mary Claire a little bit of cereal in more bottles during the day. Our big girl just doesn't seem satisfied with only formula anymore. This past weekend when I was off with her she was wanting to eat every 2-2.5 hours! That just won't cut it!!!


Mary Claire has not officially rolled over yet. It seems she may accidentally do it, but nothing near consistent yet. For some reason I am very excited for this milestone....and I don't know why! She's going to be crazy when she gets mobile I'm afraid!!


We go to the pediatrician on March 30 for Mary Claire's 4 month appointment. I am both excited and nervous for this! Excited to see how big she has gotten and excited to get the "official" go-ahead on solid foods. Nervous about the shots....ugh!!!


We hope everyone is doing good! Mommy and Daddy are both off today so Mommy is hoping to go to the Nursery Festival. I think Mary Claire would enjoy the fresh air...if it warms up enough! Daddy is outside mowing our grass for the first time this year....so appropriately on the first day of Spring! Yay....bring on the warmer weather!!!


I just wanted to thank everyone for following the blog. I am one proud momma and I'm loving this journey!
