santa baby



bennet met santa the other day.

it was love at first sight.

seriously this girl is sweet to everybody. full of smiles and coos. no stranger danger here.

santa even commented on how sweet she is and was like "is she this sweet ALL the time?!" yes she is santa, yes she is.

i am guessing there will be some special goodies under the tree from santa for her.


ps those are not teeth you see in her mouth. just drool shinning bc of the flash. still all baby gums around here.

3 month baby!





well miss bennet, you are growing like a weed (a really pretty weed xoxo). these past three months have been most exciting. in just the past 2 weeks you are doing so many new things. i can't call you my newborn baby girl anymore :( you love love love to sit up and you adore your bumbo seat. floor time is kinda in the past as you will only play laying down for short periods. your favorite game is "up up" where you grab our hands and we lift you up to sit. as soon as you grab our hands you lift your legs in and are ready! your absolute favorite toy is your monkey hanging toy. you stare at him a ton and talk to him. too cute! you grasp toys really well and started shaking your rattle. but you would still rather look around then look at your toys. you love to have tons of conversations (i mean you are a girl!!) and hearing your laugh for the first time (october 15) totally made my whole life! you are still sleeping well and through the night. thank you for that my dear!

some first this past month:
first laugh
playing with toys
grabbing toys
sitting up (with help and in bumbo)
first long road trip (to st. louis)
first halloween
first shot (yesterday :( just the one though)

i am so excited for the holidays coming up. over thanksgiving you will get to meet your great great grandma (who is 99 and doing great!) and i am so excited to take you to sit on santa's lap and have christmas morning with you!! you my dear are the best present and your mommy and daddy couldn't adore you more!
