There are so many first to record and so little time!
On Friday, April 5th we headed West for Lane's first trip to the farm. We had friends Christy and Matthew Johns join us, but failed to capture a group photo. We also stopped at Lane's Southern Orchards on the way home. Lane's Orchards is the perfect mid-way point between Savannah and the farm, and I have a feeling we'll be stopping there a lot more as this little lady grows up. They have a wonderful playground, you can pick your own strawberries, watch the whole peach sorting and packaging process, eat amazing peach and strawberry ice cream, and it has the same name as my daughter...so...it's awesome!

I took Lane to the beach for the first time on April 16th. Tybee could not have been more beautiful and I captured some fun pictures of Lane's first experience in the sand and ocean water.

We also made the sad/happy visit to Auburn for Lane's first and last rolling of the original Toomer's Corner trees, and her first Auburn football game.

Lane and I started water aerobics together on April 23rd and she loves it. I think we officially have a water baby. No pictures of water aerobics yet, but I'll work on that.
On Tuesday, April 30th Lane and I travelled to Litchfield Beach to play with friends Kathryn, Tyler, and Charlotte for a fun couple of days. Lane and Charlotte are best buds! They are exactly two weeks and 11mins. apart. Lane is two weeks and 11mins. older than Charlotte. They even hung out before they were born :)

Luke just couldn't wait to get Lane out in the boat, so she has been cruising around Savannah's water ways. I can't remember the first boat ride day exactly, but let's just say April 2013. Here are some funny pictures of Lane cruising around. The boat puts her right to sleep.

Lane started sitting up by herself for short periods of time about two weeks ago, but as of this week she can really sit. Just yesterday she sat for over five minutes. So here are her official three month pictures and one I captured of her sitting up.
In three days I'll take her four month pictures and do a blog post after we visit the doctor to get her latest stats. Lately she puts everything in her mouth (almost like attacking anything near the mouth). Lane drools like crazy, gives wonderful smiles to everyone that walks up, doesn't cry unless she's tired or hungry, loves baths and the water. She just started to figure out the Johnny Jump Up and her exersaucer.
Last night she slept well, but it seems like every other night she is waking up again. I'm starting to think she is waking up because she is hungry, so when I go to the doctor I plan to ask about starting rice cereal in her final feeding of the day. I've been re-swaddling her to see if that helps, but I'll keep you guys posted on how the rice cereal goes. I think if we start the cereal we will try the unswaddled girl again.
I'm strictly pumping these days and plan to do so until she is at least six months old. Just as a reference for me: we changed Lane to a medium flow nipple a week before her 3 month birthday.
She is a wonderful baby! Luke and I are beyond blessed and just trying to appreciate every second since they seem to be flying by.
