Dear Avery, 3 months old

Dear Avery,
You are growing and changing so fast every day, that I am struggling to keep up with the pictures so that I don't miss anything. I am trying my best to make sure that we capture every moment with you, but you are very difficult to catch on camera. As soon as you see the camera, you stop doing whatever cute thing I am trying to take a picture of, and just stare at the camera. Haha my sweet girl, there are a lot of pictures of you staring at the camera, and just a few of you smiling. I am probably going to start chasing you around a lot more with the camera so that you get more used to it.

Let's see what you've been up to this past month. You can hold your own head up completely by yourself, and you love to do it. You are sitting up supported in your boppy pillow or bumbo chair, and you absolutely love to sit up and see what's going on around you. You are grabbing onto toys now, and it is amazing to watch you exploring and learning simply from holding a toy. You have started sucking your fingers.... the same two fingers that mama sucked when she was little. You will even put your fingers in your mouth and hold them there with your other hand, it is sooo cute! You have also just realized that when you cry, someone will come running, so you are enjoying getting our attention when you are bored. I spend more time entertaining you during the day than I do feeding and changing you now. It is wonderful though, you have started smiling all the time and just learned to laugh! The sound of your laughter never gets old, I can listen to it all day long.

You are already 13lbs, I can hardly believe it! You are wearing all the clothes that Addison wore for her first winter already, so we will have to buy you all new clothes for your first winter. I am very excited to get you your own winter clothes though. I love having an excuse to get you all new things!

Baby girl, I cannot express enough to you how happy I am to have you, how deeply I love you and how much I enjoy spending my days with you. You are such a happy baby, and you are already sleeping through the night, you could not possibly be more enjoyable if you tried. I am so in love with you my beautiful girl. Everywhere we go people stop to tell me how gorgeous you are and how captivating your big blue eyes are. I couldn't agree more, you are stunning.

I am looking forward to seeing what this month brings sweetheart. I feel so very blessed to be your mother, and I love you with all my heart and soul.

Love Mama
