3 months

Well, it's happening! My baby is getting big! He is 3 months and a week old! How did 3 months go by already?! Before I know it he will be graduating from college!

He is quite the morning person. Which is very unlike his mother! He wakes up talking and smiling; just happy as can be. I'm glad to know there will be a morning person in the family. He must get this from his daddy! 

He tries to sit up when on his back. He tries reaching for things, and occasionally succeeds! He only wakes up about once a night at about 2:45am or so.

At daycare he does great! He loves the ladies that teach his class! He does not take naps well or eat from his bottle well at daycare. Maybe there is just too much noise and distraction. He is eating a little under 20oz while at daycare. And then nurses about 5-6 times throughout the evening-morning.

When sleeping, we still swaddle him. He doesn't really like it at first, but sleeps so much better if we do. This week I tried to let him sleep through the night without swaddling him...let's just say we won't be trying that again for a while! He woke up 4 times during the night. It just threw off our whole night and made the next day a little rough, too! 

When he sleeps swaddled he has to have at least one hand out to get air. Usually both hands are out. One out of the top and the other out of the bottom. But, sometimes they are both out of the bottom. 

One hand out of the top, one out of the bottom!

Both hands out of the bottom! 

He LOVES tummy time! He arches his back and does this Superman move while on his tummy. It's pretty cute!! He has roled over from tummy to back twice on his own. Once at daycare and once at home the same day. But has not done it again since. He also love laying on his back and is beginning to scoot down when laying there. He loves his play mat his Aunt Lydia let us borrow. His favorite part of it are the leaves and mirror!

This boy can throw a fit!! He does not like going to sleep. Arching his back, screaming, grunting the whole 9 yards!! Hopefully we will be able to break this bad habit before he is too much older. This is not a habit I want him taking into his toddler years! 

Throwing a fit because he is tire!!

And falling asleep about 30 seconds later!!

He does seem to be teething. Drooling and chewing on his hands are things that go on constantly now. He only gets fussy sometimes so we must just be beginning the teething process. 

Pretty happy dude! 

This is how he usually is!
