3 and Half Months!

3 Months Old

2 Months Old
So he really isn't quite 3 and 1/2 months old but he is close enough. I have been so busy with the move that I was unable to post when he turned 3 months! This last month has been big for changes and growing up! We don't have a dr. appointment until he is 4 months so I don't have a current weight and height but I can tell by looking at him that he is just growing a ton!!!
Some of the big things that have happened are his babbling...he rambles on and on. It is so cute! He knows who his mom and dad are and makes sure that we know it! He absolutely loves when Daddy comes home from work and just gives him tons of love when he does...typically he starts by talking, smiling, and laughing at him and then after he gets picked up, he'll spit up all over him! It happens almost everytime! He has his 'I want my Mommy' days now too. About a week ago, Laurie was holding him and he was doing fine until he noticed me standing off to the side and then he just started to fuss. As soon as she handed him to me he just calmed right down. It is nice to know he wants me but it makes it difficult to get things done sometimes! He now loves to sit straight up...no more of just being propped up! He actually starts pulling himself up as far as a he can and then he'll fuss until we sit him up the rest of the way. The last big thing is that he is now rolling over from his tummy onto his back! He will do it just about everytime I lay him on his tummy until it finally wears him out! It is so much fun!

He now eats 3 times a day and it is typically 7-8 ounces everytime! He also sleeps from between 9 and 10 until anywhere between 6 and 7. It is so nice!!! Chris and I could get a pretty decent night of sleep if we didn't take advantage of that time to talk and just spend time with each other!

Laurie bought him a cute jumper thing and he absolutely loves it!!! I can put him in it and he will just play. Right now he jsut wiggles around but he still loves it! His feet don't touch the floor when he is in it so we had to find a skinny box to put under it so he could bounce and the only box we could find that was skinny enough was a pizza box so hopefully he will lengthen out fast enough that we won't need it much longer! Every day is a new adventure with him and I just absolutely love it!!! Being a mom is the best thing ever! I sure do love my cute little guy!

You are lucky he's only eating 3 times a day. Both my boys were eating every 2-3 hours around the clock until they were at least 6 or 7 months. They were both breastfed, but I produced at least 6-8oz for every feeding, if not more. He looks healthy and happy! You have such a cute family :)
