Malin is 3 months old!

My baby girl has already reached 3 months old.  HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?  She certainly didn't stay in the newborn stage long - this girl has grown just as quickly as her sisters.  She didn't have a well-child checkup at 3 months, but here were her 2 month stats:
Length - 24.5inches (99th %)
Weight - 13lbs (91st %)
Head - 41.1cm (92nd%)

You can see she has been busy growing.  Now imagine another months worth of growth on top of that!  She is already moving into some 9 month clothes and I have to admit that I am a little sad as I put away all the small baby things that each of my girls wore for only a short time.  But one look at Malin, and that sadness goes away as I realize how healthy and happy a baby she is growing into!

Malin is a pretty good sleeper at night, though she does still wake up at least twice a night to eat (can you blame her for as fast as she grows?).  She really doesn't cry too often and seems pretty laid-back most of the time.  She likes to be held upright so she can see what's going on.  She is our paci-baby - the only one of my girls who really loves her pacifier.  She has found her hands in recent weeks and is constantly shoving them in her mouth.  In fact, she has formed little calluses on her fingers from sucking so hard!  When she smiles, her entire face lights up - she has the biggest open-mouthed smiles I've seen and they are so endearing!  She's not a very loud baby and really doesn't do a lot of cooing or baby babble yet.  But let's face it - her sisters make enough noise to fill TWO houses, so why add more?

Stay tuned for more updates on this precious little girl's growth!
