Shyanne- Three months

Today Shyanne turns three months (Really, I just had her the other day)

I left off so much on her two month update, so I will add it here:

Shyanne started daycare on the 9th of January, she is adjusting really well, I love her teachers

A week before she was to start daycare she started sleeping through the night with the exception of waking up once for a bottle, and you go right back to sleep when you finish, you generally sleep anywhere from 9-10 hours a night


Shyanne on this day you turned three months old, here is update on all you are doing:

You eat between 5 and 6 oz each feeding, you have taken a 7 oz. bottle before, but only once

No matter what time you eat when I pick you up from daycare, you will eat again between 6 and 7, this is usually your last bottle for the night

You are now in size 2 diapers

You can still fit in some 3 months clothes, but are quickly growing out of them, you can barely fit in your pajamas, your legs are too long for them

You are sitting in the bumbo at daycare, your teachers say you do really well, you do get the lean some time

You are beginning to try and pull yourself up out of your swing, bouncer, and carseat

You like your activity mat, as long I don't put you on your belly, you hate being on your belly

You are talking and cooing like crazy, you talk to me and your daddy like there is nothing else

You adore your daddy, when he talks to you, you light up like a Christmas tree, you get the biggest grin and get so excited

You still love bath time, but you don't like having to get dressed afterwards, you would be just fine completely naked

You don't like shoes, you cry when I put them on, so I don't try anymore

You are not a big fan of socks either, but at least I can keep them on you without an epic meltdown

You are not a big fan of the tutus I bought for you, which I'm sad over, but it's not in your personality to dress up like thst, so it's ok

Still not in your crib, maybe one day, when you can't fit in your swing, hee hee

You love to give your mommy kisses, it melts my heart when you do

You don't go to the doctor until next month, so I don't know your stats, but if I had to guess you are over 12 pounds, we just love our chunk baby

I look forward to watching you grow each day and praying you turn into something much more than I could ever imagine. I pray the good Lord uses you in a mighty way to serve others, and I pray you have a love and compassion for all people

A letter to my daughter- A must Read

Shyanne Grace

Mommy loves you more than words can describe. I prayed for you, for a very long time. I cried for you, some days I cried until there were no tears left. I began to believe I would never know the joys of being a mommy. Then there came a day, on March 18th, our lives would change forever. On April 6th, mommy's birthday, we got to see you for the first time, and my heart burst with so much love, I immediately nicknamed you peanut, that's how you were referred to for quite some time. As time went by, and you grew in my belly, my love for you grew and grew. I had no idea when they laid you in my arms, how much more it would grow. But it did. My life was changed forever, for the better. Pure bliss is all I can say. Shyanne you are my heart and my reason for breathing, every day I get the chance to wake up as your mommy is a renewed blessing. I am truly blessed by the grace of God. Every night when I put you to sleep, I pray over you and I thank God for you. I pray you will grow into a wonderful loving person, with a tender heart who has a genuine love for everyone. I pray whatever you want in life, you have the strength to achieve, I hope I teach you to be that strong, Most of all I pray, you will know your Mommy and Daddy love you, we will always be your #1 supporter, catch you when you start to fall and we will always and forever love you unconditionally.

I love you my Baby Girl,
Your mommy
