More rolling

And for those with a shorter attention span:


Now that she knows how to do this, she won't stop. She hasn't rolled front to back since the two times she did it a few weeks ago. But she really likes rolling back to front.

Anja is really vocal now. The Grandmas are going to love it when they see her next week! She makes a lot of really loud multi-syllable sounds. Sometimes they're pretty funny.

Anja is now 3 months old. We weighed and measured her today. She is 12lb5oz (54th percentile) and 24.5 inches (92nd percentile!) Tall and thin, if you base anything on those percentile charts, that is. Mostly the percentiles don't mean a whole lot, except that your child should be somewhere on the charts (between 1% and 99%) and should stay around the same percentile over time for both height and weight. There are also lots of fluctuations like growth spurts and plateaus, and kids like Anja who are born very thin and need to gain a lot in the beginning. But it's something fun to follow, as long as you keep it in perspective.
