3 Months Old

Becca is 3 months old already! Here she is with the bear this month:



At her last doctor's appointment back in December, she weighed 12 pounds 8 ounces (50-75th percentile) and was 22 inches (25th percentile.) Her doctor gave us the go ahead to start rice cereal. With Samuel, I remember we couldn't start until later. Either Indiana has different guidelines than Colorado, or things have just changed in 4 years. At any rate, we have tried the cereal a couple of times so far. She does that baby thing where she spits it back out, but then she seems like she wants more. Tonight at dinner she screeched while the spoon was out of her mouth, and only stopped when I put some more cereal in. So, I think she likes it, but she can't quite figure out how to eat it yet. I don't know if it is coincidence or not, but she has slept through the night the past 2 nights. Whoo hoo! Yea for rice cereal!

She has also started making talking noises. She loves to "talk" to Samuel. Whenever he is in her line of vision, she will make these loud cooing, squawking noises to him. He thinks it's hysterical. We'll try to film it and post the video soon.
