Baby Love: Week 13

Maude was 3 months last Friday and 13 weeks on Sunday! Time has flown by. We marvel every day at how much she changes. I had a dream last night that I woke up this morning and Maude was talking! I can't wait to hear her first words, but am not ready for her to be old enough to talk.

We had her 3 month appointment at the doctor's on Monday. Maude is now 11lbs, 14.5oz and 23 inches long. Her heights, weight and head circumference are all in the 25th percentile. This is where she's been since birth so it's good to know that she's growing at a steady rate. She also got two shots which she hated even more this time than she did the first time! There were major tears and screaming. So awful! But, I'm thankful she's getting the protection she needs from them which I have to remind myself as she's screaming during them and crabby for the day after getting them.

My firth mother's day was amazing. Just having Maude here and being the recipient of her smiles and giggles all day were the best gift I could ever receive. Mike made pancakes for breakfast, we had a picnic in the park for lunch, and then for dinner Mike made salmon and roasted veggies. Yummo!

Mike's birthday was yesterday. I learned that the year he was born, mother's day was the very next day. What a mother's day gift that was for his mom! We had a low key evening celebrating at home. Maude wanted to make him a cake so we worked on that during the day while he was at work.

I'm soaking up my last few weeks here at home with her. I get sick to my stomach at the thought of leaving her when I go to work. I also learned that I have a business trip to Seattle fairly soon after I go back but thankfully we were able to work it out so Mike can come along and bring Maude. Yay! We'll also get to see friends while we're there. Double Yay! =)

I hope you enjoy the latest photos. I think Maude gets cuter and cuter each week!
