We haven't posted in a while now. Life seems to have caught up with us. Lakyn is now 3 months, 1 week and a day old. Wow, how time has flown by. Seems like yesterday when we were sitting in small group thinking she was never going to make her grand entrance. Now... she graces me with her beautiful face every morning when she decides it is time to eat after sleeping through the night. Yes!! We are sleeping through the night!! Has been that way for a little while now. I have been blessed with a child that did it all on her own. I didn't realize how blessed we were until a Chili's waitress (whose child is about a week older than Lakyn and on formula) said her daughter was still waking up at 2:00 in the morning to eat.Lakyn has learned to do many things since we last posted. I think smiling is probably my favorite. She can make me melt like butter. Which brings up another thing she has learned to do... yelling, not crying or screaming, but flat out yelling when she is not being paid enough attention. She loves to yell and yell and yell when I am trying to accomplish something in the other room... making me come tend to her and then as soon as she looks at me she throws a huge smile on her face. Like "Haha Mommy! Made you look!" She now is grabbing at things, holding onto her feet and blowing spit (or rather drool) bubbles. We were so excited when she started blowing bubbles because we had been doing it for a while to make her laugh. Now she does it ALL the time. It seems to be pressurized when she is mad.. hehe. So, needless to say she drools like crazy. Her laugh is adorable. She isn't doing it very often and it is only one expiration long at this point, but it is great! She coos (though it sounds like she is gurgling the saliva in the back of her throat).At this point.. she looks like me (Kassie), but she is looooong like her daddy. She is in the 95th percentile for height. She is healthy.. besides the recent blocked tear ducts. She is pretty much the happiest, most chill baby I have ever been around. She is growing and changing so fast! It blows my mind. I have so much to talk about, but here are some more recent photos of our beautiful little Lakyn....
Our little Red Raider trying to get her guns up..
Lakyn and Lucy
Lakyn at 2 months held by her grandfather (Jac's dad) and Jac's mom holding one of Lakyn's third cousins who is exactly a month older than her. She totally towered over her. Below is a picture comparing their feet.
Lakyn batting her eyelashes at her daddy... she is a daddy's girl for sure (moreso.. she knows how to work it hehe)
My friend Amy gave Lakyn a ladybug swaddler blanket and it came with the cap. Haha.. it is adorable! Antennas and all..
Jacob's mom wanted a picture of all the grandkids with seashells to go in her sea themed bathroom. Yes.. her cousin Jaci thought it would be cute if she had a shell on her head..
