Please tell me this is just a phase...

Our sweet little girl has been a crying mess lately. Ugh. At times there seems to be no soothing her - although walks in the stroller or rides in the car (as long as there is NO stopping) seem to help at least. Bouncing her almost vigorously is a solution too, albeit a weird and inconvenient one. She seems to follow exactly the pattern for growth spurts laid out for us by Altru, and guess what folks, she is 12 weeks old!! That's right, we almost have a three month old! Can you believe it? We can't either. So anyways, at those times she seems a bit fussier and eats like a feign. Although lately she'll be SOOO hungry, but works herself up so she can't settle to eat, which leaves both baby and Mommy frustrated. Thank goodness for her sling -- she seems to fall asleep in no time when I throw her in it and bounce for a bit. Apparently baby MVJ is concerned with Mommy and Daddy's fitness levels and wants us to keep moving!

Fiend, maybe? Unless she's faking you out with her appetite...:)

Those growth spurts keep things nice and interesting...wouldn't want you to think that her personality is completely set at 3 months or anything!

Just another step in the formation of her future sunny personality. Got to try out the dark side first right?

Let's get to that sunny personality ASAP!
