3 Months and growing!

Audrey is offically 3 months now and changing everyday! At her 3 month check up we found that she is now 15lbs and 24in long. Not extremely big or small, just perfect! Her colic is getting much better too, if not completely gone (knock on wood) and she's been napping pretty regularly, at least in the morning, about an hour after she's gotten up. I say it's her way of spending just enough quality time with dad before he heads to work, then she's like, "I'm going back to bed!" Sometimes they're 30 minutes and sometimes they're 3 hours, just depends. She's usually very happy in the early morning, all smiles, but the rest of the day she's a pretty serious baby. Her facial expressions (see photo) sometimes imply that she thinks I'm crazy, but none the less she loves me ...I can tell. She's starting to recognize that Mike and I are her comfort but will occationally take a nap in the arms of a friend, especially if they hold her just right. Aunt Sara saved the day this past weekend while we were camping. Audrey was out of her usual elimate and did not sleep well in the camper. This photo was taken at about 6pm after a long day without one single nap. The poor girl was pooped and pasted out cold on Sara's shoulder. She didn't wake up until 11pm (we rescued Sara though and moved her to her bed) and that was only because I woke her to feed her and go to bed myself. This was only her second camping trip so we're hoping slowly, but surely, she's going to grow to love it as we do. The next trip is planned for Labor Day weekend which will be a 3 night, 4 day trip ...crossing my fingers that goes well. Then we're heading up to Lake City to see Grandma and Grandpa Nelson for a few days before we finally head home at which time her cousins Jackson and Max will be here to play, as the Shea family heads to Michigan for Sara's wedding the following week! Audrey just might sleep for the whole month of October after all this excitement!
