Are we teething?

Aria is growing so fast! She's giggling and smiling all the time! She's also starting to chew everything in her path...is it possible that she's teething? This past weekend, we visited family in Vegas and Aria found her favorite teething toy...her Uncle Steve's thumb! Her colic is getting better and she's sleeping better at night. She is also enjoying colors now--she was mesmerized by her grandpa's orchids!

Aria is 3 months old!

Time is flying by so fast! Today Aria visited her baby GI doctor for a belly check up and we were happy to find out that she has gained lots of weight and has grown. (On our last visit she was underweight because she was throwing up so much of her food). Now she is in the 95th percentile for weight and at the highest percentile for height! Almost 15 pounds and 26 inches!

Also, today the Dr. suggested that we start the "cry it out" method at night. Currently, we hold Aria until she falls asleep. Tonight we are going to feed her, change her, read to her and put her in her crib. The dr. told us that we have to let Aria cry until she falls asleep...it's apparently called self-soothing...something that babies have to learn to do. Grandma Laya and Mommy are not looking forward to hearing Aria cry and Ali suggested we go for a walk because we can't handle listening to her cry. =( Wish us luck...I'll post an update...see if Mommy and Grandma survive the cry it out method.

On a fun note...here are some photos of Aria with her best-friend and boyfriend Kaison Kowlaski! Aren't they precious???
