3 Months

My little Miles. I can’t believe it’s already been 3 months since you’ve been born. It feels like it was yesterday just as much as it feels like you’ve always been part of our family. You are such a joy to have around and we all love you so much.

You are a fairly happy baby and smile and giggle all day long.You love to have attention and hate being left alone. You have come around and love to snuggle much more than when you were first born and I am so grateful! You really only cry when you are alone or when you’re sleepy. I haven’t decided if you’re much clearer with your signals than Lily was or if I just know what I’m doing this time around! You love to stare at our faces have started showing an interest in playing with toys. I love watching your sweet little stare when you’re seeing something new or concentrating. You absolutely love music! When I sing to you your face lights up with the biggest smile and you start bouncing along. Maybe you’re remembering all the singing I did while pregnant with you :).

You are enjoying tummy time much more and are becoming very strong. A few times you have rolled to your back when you’ve decided your done with that. I can’t believe how big you are getting! We are going in for another checkup next week but I am guessing you are 16lbs already! You are fitting into the 6-9 mo clothes and some of those feel a little snug at times. You love the bath and luckily don’t seem to mind when Lily helps rinse you off and splashes a little water in your face.

At this point you are napping a lot throughout the day with your main 3 hour nap mid day. THANK YOU! As long as I wrap you up in your Velcro swaddler you stay asleep for a while. If we just lay you down with your limbs free you wake up after 15 minutes max. You also love your swing and will sleep in there for a decent amount of time but only if we turn on the music.

I am so grateful you are in our little family! We just love you! So does your sister. Here she is “playing” with you and a few highlighter pens :)
