Happy 3 Month Birthday!

Today Greta and Mama finally had their first photo shoot--and here is one of the photos from it. As you can see, she is holding her head up and standing really well. She is full of smiles, and this morning even laughed a few times!! Her laugh sounds kind of like a little cough...but once I got this reaction out of her I kept trying (successfully!) again and again to hear it. How great! After this photo shoot today she did some spitting up, had a mini crying fit--which is rare--and then crashed for a nap IN HER CRIB. Yes, I think she's finally made daytime peace with her crib. On her 3 month birthday yesterday she actually took two naps in it! I darken the room completely, turn on the fan for some white noise, and for the finishing touch that works like magic: turn on soothing nap music! Yipee!

Here is Greta on her birthday having some tummy time and pushing herself up with her arms. She absolutely loves to roll herself over onto her tummy but unfortunately has a little trouble rolling back onto her back. She CAN do it, but it's a lot of work and so she often tires out and gets stuck. Poor thing! But she simply cannot resist the urge to roll herself over anyway, over and over--she loves it.





One of her other best favorite places to be now that she holds her head up so well is face out in the Baby Bjorn carrier. Here she is on her birthday with Papa. The two of them went for a walk while I had a jog. Greta loves to go around like this and doesn't fuss at all while in it! Take note how you cannot see her mouth in this photo--that is because the loves to suck on the Baby Bjorn!
Happy Birthday Greta!
