Three month birthday here I come!

Nearly a month has gone by since I've posted.  So much has happened....so many pictures have been taken!!  In order to get this up timely, I'll just cut to the chase and go right to the pictures.  Since that is most likely what you are here for anyway :)

The first couple are with Kara on her playmat.  She absolutely loves to watch and listen to the star face sing songs to her.

When I want to talk and play with her myself, I just lie her on a blanket.  She does love to talk and kick and laugh!

She is finally big enough to sit well in her bumbo seat.  Of course she prefers standing :)

She is now bigger than the ballerina bear :)  I think they were the same size when she was born!

Kara always wakes up in such a great mood!  In fact, it makes me laugh each morning because when you go over and start talking to her after you know she has waken, she will still have her eyes closed but this HUGE grin comes across her face.  It is just awesome!!  So on the days I have to go to work, I always like to play with her a little bit before I have to get ready and leave.  We usually get a couple of pictures to take with us just to remember her from the morning.  I do love phones with their great picture taking ability....spoiled we are!!

Usually when she sees a camera, she will stop playing and smiling and just stare at the camera.  However, if you have one person taking the pictures/video and the other person playing with her, she will continue on in her baby bliss.  So on this morning, Mark was taking pictures while I was playing with her.  So fun she is!!

Superbowl watching with Daddy. What you don't see here is that this picture was taken in the 10 minutes or so that she fell asleep, before we knew how short lived that would be.  You see, this particular weekend, Kara was having a growth spurt.  So Mark went to try and put her in her bassinet and she woke up.  And she was hungry.  So she ate...for the next 3 hours or so!  Off and on of course, but it was 10:30 before she decided she had enough to finally go to sleep!

When she isn't eating, this is what she did while in her growth spurt weekend.  She slept the better part of the day that day.  As of today, she is almost 10 lbs.  She weighed in this morning at 9.8 lbs.  Getting close to doubling her birth weight!  You go girl!!

These last couple of pictures were just a couple of days ago on my day off.  Kara was pure joy to be around this particular day!  She is normally a very content and happy baby anyway, which we consider ourselves quite lucky on!  But this day, she slept well, which made her awake time very playful.  She was constantly laughing and playing and having a grand time.  Probably the most fun day I've had with her yet :)



Anyway, hope you enjoy the pictures!
