Linden Estelle turned three months old today. I can’t believe how fast time is flying. To ensure I remember all these special moments I will be taking a “birthday” picture every month for her first 24 months as well as charting her developments.
Summary of Linden’s development this past month:
- Will lift head and chest while laying on stomach
- Will turn her head from side to side
- Will grasp and hold on to objects (like my hair)
- Responds to the shaking of her rattle
- Will recognize the breast prior to feeding
- Smiles when smiled at
- Fully communicates hunger, fear, and discomfort through facial expressions
- Will calm down at the sound of my voice or while being held
- Now anticipates being lifted
- She reacts to “peek-a-boo” games
- Able to successfully sit propped up
- She has started to watch us eat
- Will hold a short conversation with you (i.e. goos back and forth)
- Tries to place ALL items in her mouth
- Likes to bear weight when held in a standing position
The Outtakes:

Really mom? Don’t you have anything better to do?

I am seriously getting bored with this…

Come on, stop taking pictures and pick me up NOW!
Don’t you just LOVE the Onesie Linden is wearing? I found them on Etsy. They are made by Watch Me Grow, a wonderful mom owned small business. Help support them by clicking here and liking them on Facebook!
