3 Months Old

How can you be three months old?  It seems like just yesterday you were born but in the same breath I have no doubt that I have known you forever.  Jackson you have brought so much joy and love into our lives.  You are the apple of not only my eye but your dads and your brothers too.  We absolutely adore you!

1.  You are the sweetest, happiest baby!  The only time you cry is when you are in your car seat and we all can't take it.  We don't like it when you cry.  Your cry consists of you going ma, ma, ma, ma which is even worse for your mama.  I know you don't know what you are saying but with your pouty lip and that cry it pulls at my heart.

2.  You are a really good sleeper.  We have our nights but for the most part you go to sleep around nine, wake up around midnight and then sleep until about 6:30.  During the day you like to take a nap about an hour after you wake up for the day and a few other cat naps through out the day.  You usually like to sleep the afternoons away.  You love to cuddle with me on the couch and sleep so we do that most of the time.  You love to snuggle and know that mama is there.  If you wake up and I am not there you fuss until you see me and then usually give me a great big smile.

3.  You are in size two diapers barely.  We will probably move you up to the next size next week.

4.  You are wearing some size 3 months but mostly 6 months clothes.  You have the cutest double chin and big cheeks.

5.  You love to talk and get our attention.  You light up when Jacoby comes in the room.

6.  You are starting to be opinionated about who is holding you and you usually want it to be me.

7.  You enjoy playing on the floor for short periods of times and have started playing with your toys and batting them with your hands.

8.  You still love to nurse but they are starting to spread out more like 2- 2 1/2 hours in between.  Still a one sided nurser for the most part.

9.  You have had a crummy cold for the last week but it doesn't seem to be phasing you too much other than you want to be held all of the time not just most of the time.

10.  You are a cuddle bug and love to be cuddled and kissed.  You snuggle in and we all love it!

11.  Your hair is starting to have quite a bit of red in it but underneath it's light.

12.  You have discovered your hands and love to play with them and suck on them.  You have even found your thumb!  You love to suck on that thumb and I keep trying to put a binky in your mouth instead.

We love you Jackson so much!!
