Astrid is growing big fast. She's pretty much grown out of 0-3 month clothing (right on schedule - she'll be 3 months on Thursday!). I need to get the 3-6 month clothing out in the next few days, but it's hard putting away the tiny stuff!

She smiles a lot. Both Christof and I think she's more socially inviting than Leif was at that age - she has pretty distinct looks she gives when she wants to be picked up or have her toes tickled.

She's a bit sensitive to dairy and caffeine, and is much happier since I stopped eating them. No more screaming fits in the evening. I miss cheese, though.

She still spits up an awful lot.

You're not supposed to feed solids until at least six months, and I feel bad about feeding Leif solids earlier than that, but I'm starting to remember why. When she sees me eating something, she smiles beseechingly and starts sticking her tongue out, then fusses when I won't give her any. In fact, she's doing it right now - staring at me and chewing on her hand while I eat my lentils.

Other than that though, she's really pretty happy.
