Three Months Old!

The girls made three months today! I cannot believe that three months have already gone by since these sweet angels came into the world! Each day we learn something new about each of them, and we love it.


Some things that have changed since their two month mark:

- The girls now sleep from 8pm to 4:30am consistently every night. We LOVE the long stretch during the night because it gives us a chance to really catch up on sleep as well. Other than that, they are eating every four to five hours during the day. We put them down for a nap at noon everyday and they usually sleep for two hours.
- They are starting to grab at things a lot now. They each cling to my ponytail and even sometimes try to rip my hair out. They are grabbing at the toys on their play gym as well. I'm so happy that they are improving in their fine-motor skills a little more.
- They can hold their heads up by themselves without any problems now. We can sit them up and they can even stretch out their legs and stand for a few minutes with our assistance.
- We've discovered that Aria is more of an "outdoor" girl and Cadence is an "indoor girl." Whenever Aria is being fussy, if we take her outside, she gets really quiet and just looks curiously all around. Cadence, who is usually calm, is always fussy when we go on walks or are out in nature.
- Finally, Cadence has surpassed Aria in weight and length! When they were last weighed, Cadence was 12 lbs 7 oz and 23 inches long. Aria was 12 lbs 6 oz and 22 1/2 inches long. The little runt of our family has finally outgrown her big sister! :)

In addition to all these changes, the girls have had some new experiences this month as well! Other than going to many parks, picnics, and a graduation party, they also went to the beach for their very first time last week.


Cadence had a hard time adjusting to the water at first. But eventually she loved it.



Aria loved the water as soon as she went in! She's gonna be our little beach bum.



They had so much fun at their first beach outing! :) 

We are so proud of our little girls and how much they are growing! It seems like they grow and change everyday. They are just such big, healthy little girls and we are so grateful!
