Olivia is three months old, and she is changing and growing so fast! She can hold her head and chest up now. She sits up in her Bumbo now, and she plays in her exersaucer (thanks, Grammy!). She doesn't like to lay against my chest when I hold her anymore--she wants to be able to see everything. She also learned to roll over! She has only done it a couple of times, but I don't put her in the position to practice very often. It's easier to put her in the Bumbo, saucer, swing or bouncy seat.
Her nap schedule is a little more normal. She takes usually takes three naps. She still sleeps extremely well at night, from 10-12 hours. Since she sleeps so long at night, she is still eating about every two hours in the day. She's still a chub! We love our little chunker. :) She's also getting a little more hair. It looks about the same color as Elena's, maybe a little lighter. The color is a little darker than it was when she was born.
Olivia's cry has become louder and more mature sounding. She has also started "talking."
She loves to have a little "conversation," cooing in between when I talk to her. She is so expressive when she talks! And she is so happy when she's communicating.
Olivia loves attention. She is happy to have someone look at her and smile at her for long periods of time, and that person is greatly rewarded with some giant gummy smiles in return. Sometimes when she's fussing, I will get Elena to go and smile at her, and it makes her happy. She loves Elena, but she also gets scared when Elena gets too close--she's gotten laid on or bumped by her sister a few too many times.
Olivia is getting to such a fun, interactive stage. I am beginning to see what it will be like when she can play with Elena more, though that is still pretty far away! She has been sick quite a bit this month. It took awhile to get over a runny nose, and now she and Elena have fevers. That has put a kink in our "normal," but it hasn't been too bad. I am looking forward to when they are both well; hopefully it will last awhile this time!
We go to the pediatrician next week, I think, so I will update you with her stats when we get them.
Hanging out in the baby gym. She enjoys the show.
Elena has been wearing the hat I made for Olivia. She looks like a little beatnik, with her curls coming out of the tiny hat. 
E found the camera on my bed and was trying out her skills when I found her. She does love that camera! Just like her mom. :)
Little Olivia, a couple of days ago. I think she has grown.
Sisters! Elena loves to be "next" and to hold her sister's hand.
Here you can see the new teeth coming in! Finally! They are giving her terrible trouble, poor E.
