3 months old...

karys turned 3 months old on dec. 26. i can't believe it. time is really flying by. here she is in her 3 month "monthsie"...

she had her 3 month doctor's appointment on new year's eve. here are her stats:

weight- 13 lbs. 0.5 oz. (around 75th percentile for age)
length- 24 ins. (she grew an inch and which makes her length also about 75th percentile for age)

she got one shot and got her ears pierced. i was nervous for her but k took the shot and the ear piercing like a champ. she cried for about 30 seconds then i picked her up and hugged her and she was fine. here are a couple (not so great) photo of k with earrings...

the holidays...

we did a lot of traveling over the holidays. we were in nj for christmas (at my parent's house), in pa (visiting deirdre, chris, david & myles), in ny (visiting the elmores), and then back in jersey for new year's eve (visiting marc, ruth, and corina). we really enjoyed seeing family and friends! here are some photos...
