3 Month Update



My baby boy is 3 months old...OH MY! He is getting cuter and more fun by the day!

3 month happenings:
-He talks and talks and talks. He loves to join in conversations and being the center of attention.
-He is smiling even more! He smiles when certain people walk into the room.
-He loves it when his daddy sings to him. He really likes the Beatles, especially Yellow Submarine.
-He is really good at standing, obviously somebody has to hold him up but he is really stable now.
-While baking cookies, I had to go into the pantry to get some flour and Rowan couldn't see me from his highchair and he started crying. As soon as he could see me again he stopped crying. I felt special =)
-He hits his toys on his playmat and will grab onto them.
-He can bring toys up to his mouth to suck on them.
-He has discovered his hands and loves to suck on the back of his hand.
-He always has his hands in a praying position...so cute!
-He's NOT sleeping in his swing anymore. I'm quite proud of this one. He spends most of the night in his bassinet and the rest of the time in bed with me.
-He still loves being swaddled while sleeping, but is always breaking himself out of it which I think contributes to him waking more often.
-He's not sleeping as well as he was. For a while he was going 7 hours straight. Now it's 5 hours then he eats, then he usually wakes up 3-4 hours later to either eat or he just wants to snuggle. Then sleep 2 more hours and eat. He always go right back to sleep after eating though.
-He is still getting only breast milk, which I'm quite proud of too! He's never even tasted formula.
-He is on another medicine for reflux. He now takes prevacid and zantac.
-He loves my sisters kids and they completely adore him. Gianna calls him "my baby" and surprisingly isn't jealous of him at all.
-He has the cutest laugh and laughs at the most random things.
-He loves sitting in his Bumbo

Sorry it's sideways =(
He's going to be a pea in a pod for Halloween so I'll post pics of that next week!
