Katelyn is now 3 months old! Wow, how much she has grown in the last few weeks!! She is now about 13.5 lbs and really filling out. She is smiling so much more and really "talking" to us a lot! Our favorite part of the day is when she wakes up in the morning and when we look over the side of her crib she just gets the biggest smile and starts "screaming" in excitement! We are loving our little baby duck so much! You can't help but have a smile on your face when she's awake.
I started back to work on Wednesday and we had to take her to daycare for the first time. It was heartbreaking to leave her there, but the ladies that take care of her are so nice and seem to really do a good job. She didn't adjust too well though. Since she does still like to sleep so much, she wasn't able to take as many or as good of naps as she normally takes. The last three nights she pretty much sleeps the entire time she is home. For instance, last night she slept from about 5:00 until 7:30 when we had to wake her up to eat dinner and then we put her right back down for the night.
With that said...we have some exciting news too. We have decided that I am going to stay home with Katelyn full time! This was a hard decision, but after going back to work and trying to see if it will work we decided that it is best for our family right now for me to stay home! I am so excited to be there everyday for Katelyn and really get to watch her grow up! There are so many exciting things we will get to do and I am so thankful that we are able to allow me to do this for now.

I took this picture on Thursday evening (her three month old birthday) after getting home from daycare and before going back down to sleep....she was a little too tired to smile :( poor thing!
This picture we actually took a little while ago, but I forgot to post it. Katelyn and Daddy were having a serious conversation on the couch! What a cute belly she has!

Growing up Katelyn! It is incredible to see her over these 3 months with Dottie to compare! Can't wait to SEE you all SOON!
YEAH! I'm so glad you're going to be a SAHM (stay at home Mom). Katelyn probably won't remember you stayed home when she was a baby but you will ALWAYS remember it! Now we'll get to hang out more. :)
Yay!!! So excited for you-and for us!! Now we can see a lot more of you and little Katelyn. :)
Cute pictures!
Oh, I am so happy for you. There is nothing better than to get to spend the entire day at home with your sweet baby! You will both love it so much! & rolling over at 3 months!!!! WOW! That's impressive!
Great decision! I know it will be best for all especially Katelyn.
She is really doing some cute things. Thanks for posting all of the pictures and movie clips. We can't wait to see and be with you all Thanksgiving.
