Our little Berkley is another month older! She’s getting so big and strong. She can hold that head up all by herself (and loves her Bumbo seat), can support her own weight when she “stands” on us and has a mean grip with those tiny fingers! She smiles a lot more and cries a lot less. She can grasp her own rattle when it’s offered to her. And, best of all, SHE ROLLED OVER! I’m posting a video of it! The day she turned three months old (March 10, 2009) was the first day she rolled over. It was so cute and we were so excited and proud! She’s done it a couple times since, too, so maybe she’ll keep it up! Her newest thing is sticking out her tongue and trying to imitate mommy’s and daddy’s sounds. She also blows a lot of spit bubbles!
We took her to Traverse City for the first time. She was such a good girl. She slept the whole way there and back (thankfully – she’s usually good in the car but sometimes she decides to scream)! She did have a little (okay, a BIG) breakdown in Macy’s! Now we refer to her screaming at the top of her lungs as “Macy’s crying.” Seriously – who knew SUCH a loud, blood-curdling scream could come out of something so small and cute! Whew!
Last week when it was warm outside, I took her for her first walk in her stroller. It was nice. She seemed to like it. I can’t wait for spring so we can take daily walks.
She’s starting to sleep longer. She still gets up once per night to eat and still needs to be rocked to sleep, but we can deal with that for now. I guess technically she’s been sleeping through the night for the past few nights, but we can’t wait until she starts sleeping for 10+ hours! We all know how much Tammy likes (liked) her sleep! Plus, she tends to have a 3 or 4 day pattern and then, once we think she’s starting a routine, she changes! The pediatrician said that once she hits the 15 week mark we can let her cry it out . . . we’re just not sure yet if mommy’s sanity can take that yet.
Thanks to everyone who has come to visit us! We really appreciate it! It’s just so much easier that way than us having to pack up and go somewhere else (we don’t travel lightly these days!), though it is fun to get out of the house every now and again.

Berkley may be a champion roller! She didn't even seem fazed by rolling over! Morgan cried the first few times she rolled because it scared her.
Great news: Morgan slept through the night last night! I'm not getting my hopes up for a repeat, but Jeff and I are both so thankful for that one night of sleep!
Give the little cutie a kiss for us ... and a kick in the head from Morgan. :)
Little B is so cute! Glad we made it over Sunday.
OMG she is so cute! What a big girl and I love your mommy voice in the background.
