At 12 weeks

At 12 weeks old, Maylee is learning and growing SO much! Here are some stats from her Dr. appointment yesterday:

12lbs 14oz (60th percentile)
24 1/4 inches (90th percentile)

*Maylee is cooing and smiling (pretty much all the time)
*She holds her head very well and turns her head when she hears something
*Now focuses her eyes and follows objects
*Is starting to grasp objects
*Maylee IS the spit-up queen!
*She is not so much a fan of tummy time. She can only handle it for a few minutes at a time.
*Loving to suck on her hands therefore... LOTS of drool
*Loves bath time. She loves to splash and kick!
*She was doing great at sleeping in her bassinet, then we moved her to her crib. She has had a few rough nights... but sometimes she sleeps 8 hours. She is getting the hang of it though.

We sure love Maylee and honestly cant even imagine life without her. She brightens my day and reminds me what really matters. Yesterday Maylee got her shots.... So last night was rough to say the least. She was fussy all night and would wake up every 2 hours! She would just cry and cry and cry. I was NOT happy about it this morning because I am the one who wakes up with her. (Tobin has conveniently learned to sleep through her crying...) Well, I left for work in a bad mood and had a bad day at work as well. I was just being grumpy. But as soon as I got home I saw Maylee and she immediately began to talk to me and smile.
That changed everything.
