12 weeks but not 3 months ...

My baby girl is already 12-weeks-old! So crazy to think about -it feels like we've had her forever, but then 12 weeks doesn't seem like a lot of time at all. Grandma Diana and Grandpa Brad came over Thursday and we debated if Grandma Diana was allowed to say she was 3-months-old or only 12-weeks-old. Technically Eleanor will be 3-months-old (13 weeks) NEXT Friday ... We've decided to celebrate this monumental event in her life with fireworks. :D 

Eleanor had been taking leaps and bounds in her development too. She talks a lot, cooing at anyone who will listen. Ill post a video of her talking soon. She had also gained almost full control of her head and neck, which has saved my chin a lot of bumps and bruises. 

And while she can't quite sit up on her own yet, she's getting really close to being able to. We are thinking of getting her a bouncy chair soon because one of her favorite things is to use our hands to "stand up" and bounce. She can also scoot across her play mats which is pretty exciting. She'll be crawling in just a few more months! 

One of my favorite things about her (that I may have mentioned before) is that she sleeps through the night! Our little bug created her own sleep schedule and has decided to be very generous and sleep about 7-8 hours a night starting between 10-12, which is basically the same schedule Gavin has. And while I still have to get up in the middle of my sleep to pump, it is wonderful to have some uninterrupted sleep otherwise.
