Colby-- 3 months! / Trip to San Diego

After the Barrow reunion I came home for a few days, then Billy drove me to Yuma where we met my mom and I went home with her while Billy drove back to Phoenix.  I spent a week in San Diego just to break up the awful heat in AZ and the "new mom" loneliness.  Colby turned 3 months old at the Barrow reunion, on July 25th!  I can't remember many details anymore, but I'll try my best.

One of my very fave pics ever!
At 3 months Colby was:
-Either sleeping in bed with me or restlessly in her pack-n-play crib (transitioned out of the rock-n-play because she was getting too big)
-Flat head, crazy hair
-Drooling constantly
-Held for all naps, not a good napper
-Starting to be able to grab/bat at things
-Loving her red ball toy
-Becoming an awful nurser
-Beginning to giggle a little
-Learned how to roll tummy to back right after she turned 3 months!

We had a good time in San Diego.  Of course I don't remember everything we did.  Mostly just hung around the house because Colby was difficult to take places and wouldn't nap so I had anxiety about her freaking out somewhere (which she did at Costco...ugh).  We went to Costco, the mall, the park, Target, and that's pretty much it!

Loving her ball toy that she can now grab!  She did not last long happy in my mom's car.  She only liked our car because of the awful tires and shocks, she was always lulled to sleep.  Hated any other car.

Epic blowout on the way to Yuma!

She slept in bed with me the whole trip.  It was rough at the time but I miss it now.

First visit to the Vans store!
Hated the stroller after a short time so in the carrier she goes

Fell asleep on me getting burped...this never happened!

Practicing her rolling skillz dangerously on the ottoman

Snoozin away

Billy came to pick us up the next weekend.  My mom let us sneak away for an hour or so (our first date since Colby was born!) and we went to the beach then got gas, woo!  My mom was waiting for us out on the driveway when we got home with a screaming baby.  Poor mom, and Colby.


She loved snoozin in our car

We went to eat at Blue Water Market and Grill (a family favorite) while Billy was in town and Colby did alright but started freaking out shortly and I had to take her out to the alley and rock her to sleep. 

Dad came out to protect me because it was an alley in downtown San Diego, ha

After the long drive back home.  Colby did pretty well but was over it the last hour or so.  You can tell by my face I was over it as well.
