Twelve Weeks

Wow, we have a three month old.  Well, I guess it depends on how you measure a month.  She's 12 weeks old, but three months won't have passed until the 21st of this month.  So.. if you count a month as four weeks, she's 3 months.  If you count by the date in the month, she won't be three months old for another week and a half. 

This was my first week back at work.  Kaila was home with Dad.  I was pretty sad about it, but luckily, work was really busy so I didn't have time to think about it too much while I was there.  I realized what I missed once I got home and saw video of what happened during the day which made me more sad, but it's still the first week, so hopefully it gets easier as time goes by.  I'm sure it will, it's just a process.

standing is more fun, though..

Aaron put Kaila in her crib for a little tummy time sans-pillow.


A couple days later, we put Kaila down on her mat for tummy time, and she had her head up for a really long time! 


Aaron's used this technique to make Kaila laugh a few times previously, and Kaila was giggling again this time, so Aaron grabbed the video camera to record her giggle.  Then something mama had predicted came to fruition..


It's hard to video Kaila while you're holding her and trying to make her giggle..  which is why her face is partially out of frame.   I was throwing my head back and fake laughing to make Kaila giggle, and ended up nauseous and had a headache.  It's hard work getting a giggle, but well worth the work!
