Haven Molly is 3 months old and she couldn't be sweeter if she tried!!
This girl remains an absolute snuggler! Lately she has refused to take naps in her Rock'n'play, insisting only on napping in Moms arms. She is a social butterfly and wants to have eyes on someone at all times. If she feels like she is alone in a room she begins to cry until someone walks into her view. She doesn't mind being passed around to admirers but wants to be constantly rocked, patted, or swung! She loves to have her bottom patted.
The past couple of weeks at church, friends have fought over who gets to hold her during the service. As soon as the praise leader begins I have been approached with someone wanting to take her. She has been a sweetheart and slept throughout the whole service in a strangers arms. The instant someone has taken you, I immediately want you back to have you snuggle in my arms. You continue to get more beautiful every single day, although I am not sure how it is possible! The preacher literally stopped in his tracks last week at church and oggled over your beauty for what seemed like forever! Your hair is remaining a dark auburn color as of now and your eyes are a beautiful blue. With what your dad calls my side of the family's "football" face you are looking more like your Mom but especially your Nana. I couldn't be happier about it!
You have been a great sleeper at night! Still sleeping on my side of the bed in your Rock'n'play, I am just not quite ready to move you to your own room! You go down about 10:30 and are sleeping until 6 or 7 in the morning. With a few exceptions of waking up at 4 am.
You are strong enough to sit up in your Bumbo now and really enjoy watching the world around you from it. You hate tummy time and immediately roll over onto your back. You are getting better about riding in the car but still have your moments of fits when we put you in your car seat.
You love to watch whatever crazy thing your brother is doing around you. He is asking to hold you now and you are a willing participant! However he loves to come "roar" at you when you are sleeping and this scares you, which is totally understandable. We are working with him on this.
Haven we are so very thankful God chose us to be your parents! We can't imagine our lives without you in it. You are absolutely precious and the perfect dose of daily sweetness we needed! I spend a lot of time thinking about your name and you being a place of "safe haven." I feel this more and more everyday as I need a quiet place of refuge from the changing and stressful world around me. I already cherish the mother/ daughter relationship we have and look forward to nurturing it as you grow!
We absolutely adore you our sweet girl!!
