Three Months

 This is the most accurate picture of him these days... always with the bubbles and drool!!

 This outfit is just the cutest :) 

Melt. my. Heart.

Weight: 16 pounds

Height: 25 inches

Hair: Still dark! It's still kind of falling out on the sides/back but the top is nice and fuzzy :) You love having it brushed after your bath!

Eyes: Also still dark! I am pretty sure they will stay that way. It would be a pretty drastic change to go from dark, dark brown to any other color at this point!

Clothes: 3-6 months for onesies, 6 months for footed outfits because you are getting so long!

Diapers: Finally bumped up to size 2. Mostly because you needed it overnight, and it was just easier to do all 2's than to try and remember to do a different size for day and night. Ain't nobody got time for that.

Sleeping: Still through the night! You spoil us. I have heard there is a 4 month sleep regression that happens, so who knows what is in our future... You were getting so uncomfortable in the rock n' play so we are in the process of transitioning you to your crib. You liked being snuggled up in it, but there was no room for you to stretch so you would wake up in the middle of the night completely frustrated! I'd lay you in our bed and you'd go right back to sleep after being able to stretch so we knew it was time. I tried just going straight to the crib, but that didn't work and you were up almost all night after that. It was like you didn't trust me to put you down, every time I set you down, even back in the rock n' play, you screamed. You've been sleeping in the pack n' play in our room the last week or so and I have you sort of propped up and am gradually making it flatter each night until you are completely flat. Then we'll move you into your crib and see how it goes, but I'm not rushing it.

Likes: Oh man, you are developing such a personality these days!! You still LOVE bath time, in fact I think it is probably one of your favorite times! I can't wait til you can really sit up and play in the tub, you will have so much fun! You also are really into your jumper/bouncy seat lately. The other night you had a pretty intense staring contest with the little sunshine on it, it was pretty funny. Let's see what else, you are such a happy baby, you like so many things! You like it when we make noises with our mouths, and you like when we blow raspberries on your tummy.

Dislikes: Laying down if you are awake. You want to be up and seeing what is going on at all times! Taking your medicine, it's a pretty nasty taste and I don't blame you! Still not a fan of being in your carseat, but now that you care about toys a little more I can usually distract you and buy a little more time.

Eating: Patting myself on the back because we have made it 3 months breastfeeding!! In the beginning I didn't think it was going to happen past even 1 month, so I'm pretty excited. You still eat every 3 hours during the day, if not sooner. I think we are hitting a growth spurt, the last couple days you have had some marathon feedings, like an hour and a half long. If we are out and about you are really good at getting down to business and take about 15-20 minutes (we just do it in the car because I am not coordinated enough to do it without my breast friend (pillow) and you don't like being covered with a nursing cover).

Your reflux is getting better. We started you on Zantac twice a day and that really seems to be helping. You are spitting up way more now though, so I am wondering if maybe we need to up your dose? We go back to the doctor at 4 months for your next check up, so she said we will talk then.

Milestones: Starting to grab for your feet, very curious about what you are touching, still bringing things to your mouth. Giggling :)

Mama's Favorites: You giggle! It is the cutest thing and I just eat it right up! Every night when Daddy gets home, he sets you on his lap and you are such a little chatterbox! You tell him all about our day and the two of you just sit and chat for a good 10 minutes or so. It's adorable. Also when you smile you kind of pull your hands up to your face and act bashful and it is just about the cutest thing ever (I realize I say this about almost everything, you are just too cute!)

Baby Things We Can't Live Without: Go Ga Ga Squeeze & Teethe Elephant, Baby Einstein Take Along Tunes, and alllllll the burp cloths and bibs.
