3 months...wow. Time does fly! It's funny when I was pregnant, 3 months felt like an eternity! It was 3 months until we told friends and family I was pregnant and definitely the last 3 months of pregnancy was like 3 years. And here we are told with a 3 month old who I feel acts older!
Grace is so bound and determined to sit up all the time now. She's not so much into laying in your arms like a baby and can only play on her back for so long now. She started pulling herself forward a few weeks ago and finally she seems strong enough so we pulled out her bumbo chair and she loves to sit in it! Its a foam chair with a high back that helps them sit up with a little assistance. It's awesome! Plus it has a tray to attach which we will use when she starts to eat real food. I am guessing since she sits up so well and is healthy size (weighed in at 14 pounds at the moms group this week! Holy hell!) that the peditrician will allow her to eat solids at her next visit which is at 4 months. Yea can't wait!
So I took Grace to Covered Bridge Park yesterday to take some 3 month pictures. The place is beautiful and I LOVE going there. There's a covered bridge (big shock I know) and the cutest little stream and foot bridge over it. The trees are starting to change but I bet next week they will be awesome! Pictures were going well until two dudes showed up with a case of beer and decided to sit on a park table and drink. If I wasn't the only other person there, I would have stayed but I didn't feel like waiting around until Dumb and Dumber got drunk and obnoxious. So we didn't get as many pictures as I was hoping but I got some cute ones. I'm hoping next Mon or Tues when Ryan is off too we can go back and maybe I can convince him of family photos :)
Well i had a job for a month. It was great working at a flower shop. Things were going well until the other girl who splits the job duties with me quit. The owner couldn't get her stuff together and couldn;t work out a schedule that was time and money worthy to me so sadly it didn't work out. I miss working although I love staying home with Grace. It's quite the back and forth in my head on what to do. Part time, full time, nothing...not sure. Just going to see what cards are delt to me coming up. I am really enjoying photography which I have always done as a side hobby. I know someone who has turned that into a full time professional job and still think about that a lot. I would though need to take a refresher course on my camera settings and probably invest in a better camera. Again, need money to make money! Can't I just win the lottery ;)
Here are a couple pics I took of Grace yesterday and recently. None are edited and some are from my phone fyi. I want to edit some of her 1 month and 3 months pics and get them printed soon. We need more pics of her on our walls :)
