3 months and tons of fun!!

Hello people! It has been a wonderful month with my little girl! She is growing so fast and is doing so many things now. She is now weighing in at a whopping 11lbs and is a little over 23 inches long! The dr says she is a happy and healthy baby. Alot has happened over the past month. She is noticing her toys and it is so much fun to lay her under her little mat on the floor because she just starts talking and grabbing those little toys that is connected to it. She loves for me to sing to her and she will coo right along with me. It is so adorable! We also put together her highchair for the kitchen. She will sit in it and watch me while I am in the there cooking. This little girl MUST have her social time wonder who she gets that from?! ;) She loves for people to talk to her and she will generally greet you with a smile. Along with the smile comes LOTS of drool because she has already started teething which the doctor said she wouldn't start to cut teeth until she is atleast 4 months but teething starts at 2 months.
We had our first out of town trip on Wednesday the16th to Longview, TX to visit some of Drew's family. She did amazing. She slept the entire way there and was so good while we were there and then slept all the way home. We had a fun time with everyone there and Kate got to meet her new little cousin Alexandria.

Also this week has been spring break for her grandma so we have tried to spend lots of time with her. She took us on Thursday the 17th to get pictures taken at Sears. They turned out very good and can't wait to get them in.
We are enjoying this warm weather. Daddy set up her swing set just in time! She loves to swing in her little swing, she just loves being outside. She still isn't quite laughing yet other than in her sleep but I know it will be soon. She gets so excited sometimes and looks like her smile is going to turn into a laugh but not quite yet. I can't get over how fast babies grow out of their clothes?! We are about to go through her clothes again to get rid of 0-3 months and move in the 3-6 months. I just can't believe it?! We however are very excited about passing them along to another new little cousin baby Jessica! She arrived into this world yesterday at around 3pm. She weighed 6lbs 13oz and was 19 1/4 inches long. We can't wait to go visit hopefully by the end of April we will be ready to make the trip :) Congratulations to my brother and sister-n-law..and the proud big brother Lendon!
Each day is passing so fast and I am cherishing every moment I have with Kate. Her daddy and I still cannot believe it is possible to love someone this much and everyone keeps telling us that love continues to grow. It is just so hard to believe we could love her anymore than we already do. It truly is an amazing example of Christ's love for us!
Alright now for what everyone really wants...PICTURES!! I hope you guys enjoy :)
Blessings~
