3 months!



Josie is 3 months old! She is doing new things every day, it's really fun. She has been vocalizing a lot more, and is having a great time with a new screech that she recently discovered. She has also started giggling, a real little girl giggle. We've only seen it a couple of times but it is just about the cutest thing ever. The top photo is giggles and smiles she is giving Eric while he is making silly faces and sounds at her.
She is also becoming super distracted... she'd rather do almost anything than nap these days and even her old favorite (feeding!) is taking second place to playing and looking around now.
Another piece of good news: I am extending my maternity leave to a total of 6 months, and going back part time in the beginning of December. I am feeling really happy with that decision. Now that things are getting a bit easier with Josie I can really enjoy a few more months home with her!

I'm so glad to hear that it worked out to take a longer leave! Now hopefully you'll have more restful sleep without worrying about Josie while you're at work! :)

We need to see you soon!
