Our Little Wonder: 3 Months

Moriah is growing so fast these days that I feel I must confess I took these pictures at 3 months and 2 days because she looks different than she really was on June 2nd...


We're thanking God for the growing and hoping that it's the reason why she's regressed in the sleep department. Our little wonder clock lets us know every time two hours has passed. Daddy has fittingly given her the nickname Booma (owl in Arabic). But oh those sweet sea blue eyes keep us from getting too upset about it...


She chews her fingers and drools like a pro, and anyone who has ever held her will make sure to always have a burp cloth because Fount Moriah always loves to share a bit of her milk. Sleep still requires a good swaddling and promenade with the binkie, and a prolonged kiss on the forehead always gets those eyes to close.


Her favorite toys are her plastic keys, heart sensory blanket, and Felicity's shiny beaded necklaces that we only take out while big sister is at preschool. :) Daddy successfully gave Mo-Mo her first bottle and mommy a much needed nap this month. She drank every last drop without complaint but struggled a bit when our friends tried to give her bottle number two a few days later.

This big girl also rolled from her tummy to back a few times during month three and from tummy to back with a bit of help. She loves talking to us. Her favorite word is "Ahh, Ahh, Ahh!" Though her sister has yet to notice her much, Moriah loves to watch Felicity and listen to her sing and talk on and on...


This month Moriah definitely knows her mommy and will find me with her eyes. When I say "Kissy Mommy" and hold her up to my cheek or lips, she opens her little mouth to oblige and flutters her little eyes.

She loves grabbing, her best friends are Chuck and Lulu (the hedgehog and owl on her bouncy seat), and like any good Meditteranian girl she enjoys olive oil treatment for all of her dry skin needs. :)
