3 Months!




So it seems like it was just yesterday that I was writing her two month entry, but according to the calender, it's been a whole month.

Since turning three months, Maeve has rolled over (and then temporarily forgot how to), got her first cold, started teething, and started daycare. She's been busy. Yes, after weeks of copious amount of drool, we can just barely seen the first signs of her two front bottom teeth. She's been pretty pleasant about it, but of course, they have yet to break through her gums so we shall see.

She was also the lucky recipient of a cold, courtesy of her mother. She was also pretty pleasant through that, what with the congestion, and the snot, and the insistence of her parents to utilize the bulb syringe (ok, she wasn't at all pleasant for that part). Of course, when a baby who spits up regularly, also is swallowing lots of mucus, it makes for a messy baby, and two baby puke covered parents.

And of course, daycare. She is well loved at daycare. Its run by three women (members of the local Bruderhof community) and there are currently 5 kids there, none of them older than two. The other kids adore her, and get excited every morning when the "little baby" is dropped off. She is cuddled and played with, and they have even convinced her of the wisdom of napping (only at daycare, she's still not into napping at home, we're working on it).

She's sleeping at night very well. She goes down at 8 and is up for good most mornings somewhere between 7 and 8. Many nights, we are up only once to eat and then quickly back to sleep, but a second wake-up and feeding is not unusual.

And pics will be updated soon.
