March 2013 ~ Hello from the Dackiewicz'

Hello my beautiful blue eyed girl,

Time is flying and you're getting so big! Sometimes we feel sad that you're growing up so fast but we're mostly happy because you are changing and learning so much. It's neat to see you go from a small helpless baby that just eats and sleeps all the time to this precious (little bit bigger) baby that likes to play and smile and laugh. Going back a few weeks though, you were very colic. Your digestive system had a really hard time because you weren't used to eating for yourself. That lasted about six weeks and during those six weeks, we tried just about everything to make you feel better. We felt so sad and helpless because you would just cry and cry and cry. But you grew out of that and you are such a happy baby now :]

We took you on your first airplane ride to California. You were seriously a champ. I was so worried that your ears were going to hurt. But on our way, you fell asleep before the plane even took off!

(right before takeoff)

While we were in California, you got to see Uncles and Aunts and lots of your cousins. We went shopping while we were out there too. You were one happy camper:

On our way home, a TV star from a show that Mama and Daddy like to watch was on our plane. We talked to him a bit and he wanted to hold you. He made the mistake of picking you up and facing you toward him though. You do not like that. You like to be facing outward so you can see the world. Can't say I blame you...

(You with Aaron Paul)

You've always had such great control of your neck and head. I took this video of you when you were about 10 weeks. You remind me of a little bobble head :]

Here you are, sleeping with Daddy. So peaceful...

You're so fun to play with. One night you had some boogers and I was trying to get them out. I noticed that every time I touched your nose, you opened your mouth. So sure enough, I had to whip out the camera and keep at it, even though there was no need to anymore... I'm sorry- you were just making me laugh and I couldn't resist!

You love your pacifier but when you don't have one, you improvise with your fingers. You're one resourceful gal ;]

Daddy took this picture.. Apparently you were deep in thought while napping:

The endless laughter and smiles just melt our hearts. Ahhhhh......

Everyone says that you look like your Uncle Jared. I'd have to agree. And not only do you look like him, your personality reminds me alot of his too when he was a baby. You LOVE to talk. You jibber jabber all the time. It's so cute! See what I mean:

We had to take you to the doctor for your first round of shots and I'm almost positive it was more painful for me than it was for you. You had to get 3 shots. For the first two you whimpered. By the third, you barely even flinched. You're pretty much so a rock star! The other night, you found your feet. It was so much fun watching you look at them, wiggling around.

Although we snap photos of you on our phone all the time, we also got some professional pictures taken of you. Here you are at 3 months, almost to the day. You're a ham, without a doubt :]
