100%

I can't believe it.  We went to your check up the other day and you have grown so much!  You are nearly 15 pounds and over 2 feet tall.  That makes you 100 percentile for height!!!  Insane~  Kaia was always in the ninety-something percentile for height since she was a baby, and I thought that was insanely tall.  You are just a giant little baby.  Hehe~

You're developing so quickly as well. You are just about to turn 3 months and have mastered putting your head up during tummy time.  The first couple of months, you really disliked tummy time and would just pummel your face into the blanket while crying.  Some time in the past couple of weeks, especially when Daddy was out of town for the Shepherd's Conference, you started handling it a lot better.  You would still end up getting frustrated and cry but you would actually try to lift your head up and look around.  Now, you can put your head fully up for a few minutes before getting tired.  It's so cute to just watch you looking around like a turtle.

Also, you are talking up a storm!  You're already saying "hi", "uhma", "mama", and so many other sounds that could be words.  You sound like you're asking questions or complaining with how you talk, going up and down in your tone.  I love listening to you talk no matter how tired I am.  It's so adorable.

On top of all your developments, the doctor confirmed my fear, that you're teething.  She showed me how swollen your bottom gums were.  It's so sad to see you fussy due to the discomfort and pain. You're drooling like crazy and wake up multiple times in the night even though since a month old you were sleeping straight through the night if I didn't wake you for feedings.

It's incredible to watch you grow and change with each day.  Your cheeks are so filled out and your chubs is undoubtedly scrumptious.  I kiss your rolls all the time.

Today, I made animal noises for you and you were so overcome with joy when I did the "doggy goes woof woof" part.  Haha~  You were cracking up.  It's the second time you've had a long crack up session.  I'm sure there's more to come.  I love it.  I love it all.

Well, my Ellie Girl, you mean so much to me and are teaching me to be more patient, gracious, selfless, and trusting in the Lord.  Such a blessing you are.
