Maya was a grouch this afternoon and evening. Not all smiles and coos like I claimed she is. She didn't want to nap. In the afternoon, I put her in the wrap and we went for a walk. She settled down and fell asleep. When she woke up she was happy for a while but when it was time for her next nap she started screaming again. She slept for 15-20 minutes and then woke up screaming. We tried most of our tricks and she still wouldn't calm down. We tried the wrap and a walk again but I think it just made her mad that it was dark outside. Finally we put her in the bath tub she settled down. We were discussing when we should get her out and she pooped so that made the decision easy. She then fell asleep in the swing but woke up shortly thereafter hungry. Hopefully the night goes better.

I can't believe that our little peanut is three months old. She is a lot of fun these days. She's generally all smiles and coos when she's awake. She also really enjoys chewing/sucking on her hands and her clothes if she can get them in there. It's cute but makes it a little difficult to get good pictures of her face. She is such a cutie. We might be a little bit in love with her. It's been nice to have her to snuggle when our hearts are heavy.

Three months ago I went to the doctor and found out Maya would be coming sooner than we expected. I was admitted to the hospital that afternoon. It doesn't seem like it's been that long. Today, Derek and I spent the day in shock, I guess, after receiving the news of Derek's brother's injury. Maya was super sleepy. I'm not sure if it was missing her afternoon nap since we were out and about or what. We took advantage of Maya's sleepiness to snuggle her and each other. In the evening, we decided we really needed to get out of the house. We took Maya to her first soccer game today. I wore her in the wrap and she slept through most of it. The fans screaming startled her a few time and made her cry. Also, she wasn't a fan of the loud music at halftime. She got hungry as we were walking back to the car and was mad that I didn't feed her immediately. I was a little concerned about germs with the crowd. But it was outside and she stayed in the wrap the whole time so hopefully she will be fine. We haven't gotten out much recently between Maya's birth and the move so it was nice to spend time out as a family. However, it was hard to really enjoy with everything else going on.

We picked up some more pacifiers for Maya (since she only likes the soothie ones, not the other ones we bought) and then a chair and some clothes. Since we got them secondhand, the chair and entire stash of clothes cost less than what the chair would have new. Other than a few things I picked up before she was born, these are the only clothes we've bought so far. We were blessed at our showers and have almost enough clothes up to 6 months. She was really only lacking pants in the 0-3 and 3-6 sizes and sleepers in 3-6. We picked up some of these today as well as larger sizes. The 6-9 and larger stuff looks so huge.
