Height: 22 3/4 inches (60th percentile)

Clothes: 0-3 Months // goodbye newborn

Diapers: Honest Size 1

This appointment, we didn’t have any questions or concerns. She had a bowel issue at our last visit that we were monitoring but since has cleared up. Praising the Lord for healing! We had to get her 2 month (1st round) of shots and she took them like a champ! It just so happened to be time to eat so we had shots and immediately began to feed which resulted in minimal crying. Her regular pediatrician was back from vacation so I was so relieved to finally have Dr. Q look her over. He’s the best!

E A T: She loves meal time. Eating every 3-4.5 hours depending on how long naps are and how long she stays awake after she eats. Since I was unable to breastfeed and make little to none of a supply, Scout is on formula. We recently switched to see if it would make a difference in gas and so far it has but the diapers are a little crazy. I am very picky on the bottles I use. I LOVE glass. There is just something about glass that makes me feel like it’s cleaner and completely sterile. I use Lifefactory. I started using them with Paisley and we absolutely love them. My Grand bought us another large pack as a shower gift for Scout. They have a silicone shell that the bottle slides into so if you happen to drop it, the shell will protect it and keep it from shattering. I am living proof because we have concrete floors and I’ve done it dozens of times already. You can get them here.

She smiled and grinned for the first time this month. It was the sweetest little thing and she is doing it all of the time now. Melts my mama heart and can completely turn my day around. Funny how little babes can change your whole day’s perspective.

She isn’t a huge fan of the paci which can be good and bad. We have been catching her sucking on her hands from time to time and immediately try to substitute the paci. We can take them away but not fingers.

P L A Y: Not a lot of play exactly but you can tell she is super alert and knows her surroundings. She gets really excited when Zack and I talk to her and starts to flail her arms and kick her legs while grinning and cooing. It’s pretty much the sweetest ever. She will be rolling over and crawling before we know it. She is great at lifting up her head while she is on her tummy. We play a lot at the store. She is the best little work buddy and spends a lot of time in our Solly Wrap.

This little onesie was Paisley’s. Making my mama heart skip a beat when I get to experience this a second time.

S L E E P: She is now sleeping through the night (we don’t have to wake her any longer to eat) and loves her crib! We usually get her laid down around 8:30-9 after she eats and gets a bath and she is out until around 6:00! SO. T H A N K F U L. We still swaddle at night but she is getting to the point where she doesn’t like to be held tightly so we will probably ditch the blankets soon and just sleep in jams only. She is a hot natured little thing (just like the rest of us) so that probably adds to not loving being snug and warm.

Her room is still one of my favorite spots in the house besides Paisley’s-we love to play kitchen and be princesses in there. What’s more fun than that? I love to sit and rock right before bedtime. I also love to grab a notebook and brainstorm ideas for Farm Girl. For some reason I get a ton of inspiration in that little space.

Still not hip on bath time but we are getting there. She loves the water on her tummy but doesn’t enjoy getting her hair washed. Must be a sister thing. Paisley is the exact same way.

She went to her first market last week for Farm Girl and was so good! Already teaching her how to shop.

She loves to nap in our room and usually on Sundays she and I will snuggle for a couple of hours.

 

Scout, I can’t believe how fast time is going by. You are such a joy and I am soaking up all of the little moments with you and your sister. I love all of your little facial expressions and when you grin at me, it melts me like butter. I see so much of your daddy and Paisley in you but then I think you have your own little look to you. I cannot wait to see what month three will bring with all of the milestones and first you will hit. You are such a blessing and we all love you to pieces my sweet girl.
