3 Months

Brenna is now three months old. She likes people singing to her and smiles when she sees someone, especially first thing in the morning. She talks a lot, in her own way, but never when I try to make a movie. Brenna can grab things like hair and she has a really good grip. I think she is already getting some teeth. She has been drooling a lot, she bites her fists all the time, and she even has started to bite me while nursing. I have tried looking at her gums and I don't see any bumps, but I can see the tops of the teeth that will be coming in. Maybe they are just moving up and won't come through for a few months yet, or maybe they'll pop through at the end of the week. Either way our little baby is a bit more fussy than before. She is sleeping pretty well at night and seems to be getting a routine down. She wakes around 6 am and then takes a nap between 9 and noon. Then she has another nap in the afternoon and goes to bed around 7 or 8 pm. She eats maybe 3 times a night, though I don't often count the feeding around 11 because usually I'm still awake.

Brenna and her guardians


She likes to bring her hands together a lot. Note Spencer's tongue. At least it isn't in his nose.

Fat, chunky arms. She has almost four rolls of fat on each leg.

She wouldn't smile for me

cute kids! Thanks for posting even if all Brenna says is high little squeaks. I love listening to her and Lauren and Spencer.

I estimated her weight this morning to be about 14.5 pounds. She's a chunky baby.

Were your other babies that chubby? I know Lincoln (my third) was most definitely my chubbiest baby.

Spencer was a pretty chunky baby too. Lauren wasn't quite so big I don't think. Brenna didn't gain as much weight as Spencer did in his first two months so I think he has her beat.
