Three Months


Sweet little boy you are three months old, I can not even believe it! You did not have a doctors visit this month, however when we weighed and measured you ourselves you came in at a whopping 14.5 pounds and 26 inches long. You are one tall baby! When people meet you for the first time and discover your age they always comment on how big you are. Must be feeding you something good because you're still growing like a weed :)

You are conquering your head control, and I am enjoying the freedom of not having to worry so much about your little neck. Although, you have quite a huge noggin and keeping that thing up on your own for long periods of time is still something we are working on. Tummy time is getting better, and you enjoy laying there for up to ten minutes at a time now! 

Our typical day still consists of lots of naps, (which I love, and sometimes take a nap as well) lots of play time, walks for duke and plenty of eating!! Sleeping habits still have not really formed, you are pretty hit and miss. A wonderful sleeper who "sleeps through the night" but sometimes you nap for 30 minutes others for 2 hours. You always sleep for a good 7 hour stretch at night before you wake up for one or two late night feedings. When I'm smart I go to bed when you do and get some good sleep with you!!

You celebrated your first big holiday this month, Halloween! You were the cutest little baby shark who helped us pass out candy to our neighbor kids. Everyone loved your sweet costume and so did mommy and daddy.

You are really starting to explore your toys now and quite enjoying your safari play mat! Rattles and stuffed animals are fun to cuddle and suck on. Lets face it, everything is fun to suck on! You are getting really good at reaching for and grabbing things which means most everything goes into your mouth. Depth perception is not your friend, and you can not always control how fast your hands go to your mouth with causes for lots of poked eyeballs and noses! It makes me giggle, but you don't enjoy it as much as I do :) 

We took an adventure to your first movie and you loved it!! We still are not sure if this is a good thing  or not. Your eyes lit up when you saw the movie screen and sat quietly through out the whole thing. You even managed a little nap in there somehow, you amaze me!

Your cute little eyes are still as blue as ever and I am hoping they continue to stay that way. You are passing your smiles around to everyone now, such a social butterfly! You bring out the best in all of us and we love having you around. Keep up the wonderful work little man, you're amazing!!

Love, The Williams
