The Three Month Curse....

Has officially ended! The three month curse is how I have referred to Little Lou's first three months of life. The Little poop. Now don't get me wrong, she's not up for any awards for the best behaved baby by any means, but I think I will finally take the 'For Sale' sign off from around her neck. When she would scream for 10+ hours a day, everyone would say that it would get better once she was three months old. I don't know how she knew, but the day before she was 12 weeks, she started acting like a real baby....or what I think real babies should act like.


Now that she is three months and one day old, here is a little about our baby girl:

Nicknames: Little Lou, Lousky, the Louskinator, Lemur(she looks just like one). I didn't say they were attractive nicknames, but nonetheless, these are what have stuck. Poor little thing!



She still wakes up SEVERAL times a night. And she gives no warning that she may be hungry. She screams bloody murder from the moment she decides it's time to wake up. It's getting real old being jolted out of bed 4 times a night by her blood curdling screams. What happened to a soft grunt or two, followed by the sucking of hands as a hint that she may want a small snack?


She really doesn't like to eat, and gets mad when she eats too much, and she only sleeps a few hours during the day (I'm not sure she's even mine).

Despite being a little grouchy, she smiles so easily. She has only laughed a handful of times, and it amazes me how it is the greatest sound on earth.


Now that she is getting a little older, Brooklyn loves to play with her. She is the softest, sweetest big sister.

Love you Lou!

My oldest was the "baby from hell" if she's getting better already you're good to go...until she turns 3 yrs.

Your post makes me giggle. I'm so glad things are looking up, I think Leah looks a bit more like Brookie these days?.

We definitely need to chat again to get this DL show on the road. I just wanna know what you guys are thinking as far as what days to leave and what length of stay and whatnot. Danny found flights for 188 on Southwest, I don't know if you've found them cheaper? Anyway, I am pumped. I miss my Poky girls and I'm glad we get to reconvene for a little Colby in a couple weeks. R U guys still coming this direction this month? I forget what days you mentioned . . .
