My name is Laura and my wonderful husband is Jeff. We live in Bushy Fork and enjoy life to the fullest. We have two awesome kids, Evangeline (Evan) and Wyatt. They make us smile everyday and keep us busy. We have amazing family and friends and we're incredibly blessed! Life is good, and God is great! :)

3 months

Oh wow, I have been SLACKING about writing on our blog!  Sorry! 

Evan is now 3 months old and we can't believe it!  She is developing a little personality and is the sweetest girl in the whole world.  She loves to smile at people and giggle sometimes too.  She is starting to really hold on to her toys and figure them out.  And when she holds on to them, she likes to bring them to her mouth!  I hope she doesn't start teething anytime soon, but she's starting to drool more too.  She enjoys sucking on the back of her hands.  She can really hold her head up like a pro.  It's so much easier to hold her now, and all she wants to do is look around at everything.  We sat her in her bumbo seat and she stayed in it for quite a while and was very content!  I can't believe how much she changes everyday.  We also set up her jumparoo and we place her in there every now and then to let her see the toys.  She kicks her feet, but we have a rolled-up mat under it so her feet can touch.  In another couple of months, I know she will really enjoy it!
Last night she rolled from her back to her side for the first time.  She is always lifted her feet up and grabbing them with her hands, so it wasn't a big surprise that she was going to roll to the side sometime soon!  She isn't a big fan of tummy time still, but she'll do it for a little bit.  I'm not rushing her rolling over because it's still nice to lay her down and know she'll stay like that if I have to walk away.  :)

Here are few pictures from recently:

Below is a video we caught of her giggling at Jeff one evening...

As you can see, she is a HAPPY baby!  We are truly blessed to have her in our lives.
She is still doing great as far as sleeping through the night goes.  We will probably be trying to feed her a little rice cereal sometime soon and see how she likes it.  And since she's sleeping through the night so well, we will probably move her to her crib at night soon and move the cradle out of our bedroom...but Jeff and I have both said we will kind of miss her being in the room with us.  It feels like yesterday when we came home with her!  But we're trying to take in every little new thing she does.  I'm so excited to see what this year has to bring!  AND I'm kind of getting ready for spring and summer to get here so we can do things outside!  BUT I would like at least 1 snow day before winter goes away....we shall see I guess!  :)
