So our foster baby girl is growing SO fast, and is already 3 months old! You know how people say “I can’t remember life without them”, that definitely is the truth when it comes to her! Our family is so extremely blessed to have such an amazing, easy-going child join our clan!
Height: N/a Will be determined next month at doc appt. for her 4 month well check
Weight: 12 pounds taken on home scale.
Likes:
-To be talked to, she coos in all different sounds and it’s utterly adorable!!
-To MOVE! This month she has learned that she loves to be moving ALL the time, if she is awake!
-To eat, I swear she is going through a growth spurt, because this girl can eat a lot! She is up to 4 oz. every 2-3 hours (sometimes every 1-2)
-To sleep in her OWN crib at night! Thank the Lord that she sleeps all throughout the night already! She has been for a while now! YAY!
-Her play mat! It is so adorable to watch her try to roll over, grab at toys, and play for up to an hour by herself!
-To see everyone in our family (including my parents). I swear she already knows the difference between each child (and adult) and reacts to everyone differently. It’s so cute to see her grow so much!
Dislikes:
– Cold water touching her body. Only a fan of the “perfect temperature” bath.
– When she has a booger in one of her nostrils. This baby has got the tiniest nostrils and we are still plunging them out (Thank goodness for nose frida) at least 1 time a day!
Teeth: No teeth! Even though she has definitely become the drooliest(made up word? lol) baby, I am assuming one might be coming earlier than expected!
Language:
She is cooing and interacting so much lately, it is adorable!
Milestones: She is SO close to rolling over, that I am sure she will accomplish this any day now!
Upcoming:
Family visit (1 hour every week on Tuesdays)
MD appt: 4 month appt/shots next month
monthly visits with ECI team
Monthly visits with team (now just legal worker and case worker)
Of course, I couldn’t end this blog post without some pictures of her! (Of course they will have blurred faces due to the privacy and protection of our foster child)
