Dear Lydia

Three Months

Holy dooley! Little lady it has been three months since you made your very sudden grand entrance into this world! 12 whole weeks have flown by, I have joined the gym and can offically start to exercise more and make my toward my pre pregnancy size! My tummy is still numb where it was cut and my scar is 15cm wide... yes I just measured it ;p

You are such a cool little baby, you are in no rush and you are pretty relaxed about most things
You go to sleep around 7pm give or take and wake either at 1am or 3am for your next feed
You have started talking with gorgeous little baby sounds
You smile heaps now, it melts my heart and makes me do all kinds of faces to get another
You are holding your head up a lot more now, and like to look around
You are very aware,  "very alert" , and "very content"
You still sleep swaddled but bust out as soon as you wake up
You don't cry when you wake, you just make grunty noises...as you try to escape your swaddle
You are on the verge of not being able to fit newborn clothes now and wearing 000
You have been babysat by Nany while Daddy and I went to the Guns and Roses concert
You have come to the hairdresser with me while I got my hair done
You spewed on your sisters bed last night when I took you in to say goodnight
You also spewed a bit in your swing and Charli grabbed a tissue and cleaned you up, it was so cute!
You were making noises instead of sleeping, Charli went in and started rubbing your head and your eyes got sleepy....SO MUCH CUTENESS!!!
You my little love bring so much happy to this family and each of us love you butt loads! You are wonderful xxxx





Two Months

Little Kitten, you are two months old my darling girl!


You are now fitting newborn clothes
You like to sleep swaddled
You are so good at getting yourself to sleep!
You dont cry much...apart from the last few trips in the car...you have decided you now hate the car
You have been through 3 South East QLD heatwaves
You have been to Trolls, Moana, Sing, Ballerina, and La la Land at the cinemas
You have loads of hair, it brings all the ladies to the yard..."ohhhh look at that hair...Did you have heartburn?"
You attract clucky woman like a little magnet, I need to make up a flyer to distrubute to said woman!
You still have furry little shoulders
Your belly button looks like a swirl
You take the bottle really well
You love looking at your sister, you also put up with her noise really well!
You have sharp little nails, which reminds me I need to trim them ;)
You spew A LOT, pretty much always on me and ALWAYS straight into my cleavage
You also poo A LOT....Eat, Sleep, Eat, Poop Vomit, Repeat!
You love the bath
You suck your fists when you are hungry
Your little legs go stiff when you have wind
When you get mad, your face goes bright red with a line of white in between your eyebrows
You love lying on your tummy
You fart and belch with incredible power, people probably think its me!
You don't mind a baby massage
You have had your 6 week needles, you were not a fan, but you were a champion






One Month

You kept me on me toes throughout my whole pregnancy, right up until the very last minute as they frantically pulled you from my tummy at a 36 week check up, while daddy held my hand, tears flowed down my cheeks and the midwife took photos on her phone. Talk about a dramatic entrance!

Technically you should still be in my tummy or have just been born, but instead here you are one whole month earthside!

You sound like a zomie while you are sleeping/waking up...so much so that I have actually had several dreams about zombies with you making the sound effects!
You bring your crossed legs up to your tummy when you are picked up like a little kitten
You smile and laugh when you are sleeping
You are still a bit jaundice
You sleep a lot, and pretty much anywhere! I have to wake you every 3 hours to feed you to fatten you up! 
You have had photos with your sister, you peed on her... I found it hilarious, Charli - not so much!
Your Oma has been here this whole time, its wonderful!
You are such a beautiful little baby, I want you to stay small but I am also excited to see you grow!
