Happy 3month birthday to you, Happy 3 month birthday to you
Happy 3 month birthday to Danielle, happy 3 month birthday to you.
Wow, it so hard to believe that 3 months ago today, I was holding you for the first time, clipping your umbilical cord, and meeting you for the first time. You sure have grown in these past 3 months, and are really starting to be quite vocal, and even starting to play with some of your toys. I think one of the best gifts you actually gave us, today, instead of us giving you, was that you are now sleeping from 9:00 PM to about 5 AM or longer, and when you do wake up in the middle of the night, you find your hand, talk to it a bit, suck on it, and then fall back asleep. Your hand and you are becoming best buds, I can tell. Your neck muscles have developed to the point that you are pretty much able to keep your head up, next step will be to be able to sit up by yourself, you are soon going to be outgrowing the family bassinet, and we will have to move you down the hall to your bedroom and your crib. That will be a sad/happy day for both your mom and I, because we both have gotten used to you sleeping in the same room as us, and having to make the short trek down the hall will seem like the longest walk, I'm sure for the first few weeks. And I'm sure Mommy or Me will be spending time in your room just watching you sleep, or viewing you through the video monitor, to make sure your ok.
Happy 3 month birthday sweetheart...
Love,
Daddy
