Three Months

Somebody has grown!

Today, you are THREE months old! How can that be when it seems like we just laid eyes on your beautiful face? Oh, how our hearts have grown since you arrived.

This is such a sweet age, you are changing daily. I love to see the new things you are doing, and it's just as exciting the second time around. I just might be soaking up all of your milestones more...only because I know how special it is, and how quickly it passes!


Luke,

You are approximately 16.5 lbs, 26 inches..both 95th percentile (measured by Mommy's amateur weighing method at home, we won't know your exact weight/height until your 4 month check-up). But let's just say you are very HAPPY & HEALTHY! No problems in the chubby cheek department.

You are wearing size 6 months in clothing (but the onesie in your picture is size 12 month!), and 2/3's in diapers.

You are great sleeper! Lately, you have been going to bed around 6 p.m., waking at 10 p.m, 5 am, and then 8 a.m. Throughout the day you are usually up for 2 hours, asleep for 2 hours. But lately you've been "cat napping" more and more.

You giggled for the first time this month, at your Mimi. (who also got your first smile! You love her!) It is so cute to hear you little laugh, it melts my heart.

You took your first bath with your Bubby! It was so cute to see you boys take a bath together. Have I told you that you have never once cried during a bath? Yep, it's true, even when you were itty bitty! You LOVE the water!! Now, when I get you out, that's a different story - not happy!
You enjoy rolling from side to side! You kick up those legs and over you go! You are not yet rolling from back to belly, but I can see it won't be long! (Edited: As I was typing this post on 4/14, you rolled over from back to belly!!!!!!!!!!)

You are getting a little spoiled. Lately, you start to whimper when Mommy lays you down, puts you in your swing or bouncy seat. You love to be held....all the time.

You found your hands! It was so cute to see your facial expression as you try to figure out what they are! And you are beginning to find things to chew/suck on...see below!

You were away from Mommy for the first time. It was a long 8 hours while she attended class. Mimi and your Great grandmother took good care of you. And you took your bottles great! :)

You love taking naps on Daddy's chest or in Mommy's arms. You are such a snuggler, always so warm and cozy!

You seem to be losing some of your hair, but it seems to be growing back just as fast? Your swirl is still there, too cute!

You have the cutest little dimple in your right cheek, I love giving it kisses.

We love you Lukey Bear, Happy 3 month Birthday!
