17 Pounder

Nope, I'm not talking about our Thanksgiving turkey, I'm talking about our little Taylor.  She is officially 3 months as of December 7th.  We weighed and measured her and she is almost 17 pounds and 26 inches long. We couldn't believe it.  I of course had to look it up and sure enough she is in the 97th percentile for her age for both height and weight!! 

Here is a picture of her with her Auntie Amy! 

She has started to go to the gym with us as well.  We have an amazing deal with LA Fitness for her to spend time in the Kids Klub while we work out.  I was pretty nervous the first day and I couldn't stop thinking about her during my workout. I didn't even put my headphones on because I was scared I would miss the club calling me for something.  When 

I went in to grab her she was unfortunately sitting by herself with her bottle balancing on some blankets and she was struggling and in a panic to get it to hold still so she could eat. I was pretty fired up! I flew in there so fast and grabbed her bottle.  The next time we took her in I asked them to call me when it was time to feed her.  It was a different girl and when Todd went down she was playing with Taylor and making her smile and then fed her and burped her.  Whew! That was a good day. Since then it's been fine. She is the youngest in there so they usually just put her in the swing and she just takes in her surroundings.  Afterwards she naps a few more times then usual in the afternoons so I think she is getting some major stimulation.  

Here she is in her workout gear.  You like the little Jordan socks? So cute!! 

Her and daddy getting ready to workout!

As for me, I started back to work on Friday.  It was a short four hour shift to help fill in before a big Christmas party.  It was really good to be back to work and see all of my friends.  The guys that work in the pro shop bought me a chocolate cake! Mmmmm...doesn't help me lose the last 5 pounds of baby weight but I indulged!!  Todd did an absolutely amazing job taking care of Taylor! This was the longest that he has been alone with her.  He cleaned the entire house, took her for a walk, made me dinner, bought me my favorite dessert and left me a sweet card.  *sigh* I have the most amazing man in the entire world.  SuperDad!!! 

My friend Vanessa was so incredibly sweet and bought us one of the most amazing gifts for Taylor! It's a little seat for her now that she can hold her head up....well, she looks like a little bobble head but she is getting strong.  Here she is in her chair, so cute!! Do you see little Bella back there enjoying the box that it came in?!
