Last week, Hazel hit her twelve week mark, and as of Friday evening, she is THREE MONTHS OLD! A lot has sure happened in her first twelve weeks of life, that's for sure!
A bloggy-friend (shout out to Erin Perry!) had a baby boy last fall and she documented his weeks in a simple and sweet way - which I thought was so fun, I wanted to give it a try myself. So...even though I've been frantically busy during most of her first weeks, I took a moment each week to snap a picture of Hazel and her teddy bear. It's absolutely amazing how much she's grown and how chub-a-licious she's become in that relatively short amount of time. See for yourselves...
The above photo was taken when she was a fresh ONE day old. She was smaller than her teddy! She was sooo tiny! For reference, it's a 15" teddy bear. Check out how fast she's growing bigger than her teddy these past 12 weeks. Can you tell she's a purely breastfed baby? I love her rolls and delectable cheeks!
Pretty crazy, eh? I'm glad I took the time to do this. I don't think I can keep it up every week, but I think I will now go month to month for her first year. Then, my thought is to display them at her first birthday party next summer!
Part of me is sad she is growing so quickly, but part of me just delights in how much she is learning and growing. She sure is a sweetheart - we can't imagine our lives without our Hazel Grace!
