{friends}

It's so funny how fast life changes. I think back to two years ago when some of my friends were just starting to have kids. It's been fun watching friends become parents and now being a parent myself! Last week I drove to Dayton to visit one of my best friends, Aubrey. She has a little 6 week old boy. We basically sat around all day talking about our kids...haha:) It was so good to be with her and see her as a mom. Hudson is just the cutest thing! We joke that he's Molly's future husband. Here's a picture of the two of them. They're 10 weeks apart, but the same size!

{Molly @ 3.5 months}

Molly continues to grow and change every day!! I can hardly keep up with updates! She's still a little squirt. At her 3 month appointment (which was really about a week and a half early) she weighed 10 lbs 2 oz. She's in the 50% for length and 10% for weight. Got to fatten her up! She's smiling ALL the time now. I love when she wakes up in the morning...as soon as she sees me, she always gives me the biggest smile! Melts my heart every time. In the last week she seems like she's starting to get a little voice:) When we talk to her, she kind of talks back. When she's playing under her Baby Einstein mat, she gets really excited and almost sounds like she's yelling at the dangling toys...haha:) She's even let out a few laughs...especially when Brian was singing some Britney Spears to her:) She's still a great sleeper...sleeps about 11 to 12 hours a night. I think that's why she such a happy baby all day long. She really doesn't get fussy...just when she's ready to eat or sleep.
We had a great Christmas this year! The trip to Colorado was a blast! We definitely could have used and extra day or two. The kids actually traveled really well. We're hoping to do it again in a few years and maybe take a train ride instead of driving or flying. I'll get some of those pictures posted when I'm on my other computer. Brian and I also had a great time with his family here in Indy. It was good to be home for Christmas after all the traveling!
A BIG thanks to Brian's mom for watching Molly on New Years Eve! It was so nice to have a little break and go out with friends to celebrate!
Here are a few pictures I snapped of Molly today. I couldn't for the life of me get her to smile with a camera in front of my face! I'll have to have Brian sing some Britney Spears when I take pictures of her next time:) Enjoy!
