Miss Violet is 3 months old and a major drama queen. We jump from being the happiest baby full of grins and giggles, to screaming like a banshee in two seconds flat. But boy are those grins are worth every tear! Everyday she surprises us with her strength, growth, and abilities. She loves standing with me holding her hands at her chest and can hold her weight for over two minutes. She talks back and forth with Bobby every evening and is learning the "ah" and "oh" sounds. She refuses to exercise those arms, or she'd be crawling everywhere, she scoots on her knees all over. This month we took a trip through FWB, down to Gainesville, up to Centerville, and back through FWB. She met all but one of her great grandparents and did so so well in the car. We love our girl and we love watching our friends and family love her, too.

Ashley finally got to come meet V this month!

V's first trip to the beach

She made some funny faces as she wiggled her toes in the sand

she may or may not have screamed bloody murder at whataburger before falling asleep in Grahama's arms

whatababy through and through

she experienced the corn maze at Rodger's Farm in Gainesville, one of our favorite fall traditions with Amanda and Dane

 

we visited the bull gator at UF

and might have taken this just so we could pose for the same picture when her drop her off in eighteen years ;)

Grandma Shirley got some good snuggles, even with her cast

she loved when Grandpa Bobby would sing to her

stopped for a quick lunch with Mimi

loved on Ama

Fafa serenaded her, too

Bigbo stole her bow at Tijuana

her aunts would steal her in a heartbeat if I let my guard down

she loves when I come get her from her crib

our first family date was to a Rockets game, and she napped half the time

our HP themed halloween

our first family run was pretty great

she naps in my arms less and less every day, so I'm soaking up these moments while I can 

and one for the blooper reel.
