3 Months Old

3 MONTHS OLD


"Whoa I'm 3 Months old!"



You are such a sweet boy and we have had so much fun getting to know you this past month.  You have such a personality and have done so many things this month.  

At your check up appointment on December 8th you weighed 12.8 and were 24 inches long...so I'm sure you've grown a lot since then but we don't go back to the doctor until February, so we'll have to wait and see exactly how much you have grown. 


9 Weeks:
-You squealed with laughter for the first time.  Before you had just smiled, but now you are squealing and what I call laughing like a goose.  :)
-You went to you first basketball game and the buzzer made you jump at first, but now you don't even budge at the sound and will sleep right through the game if it's your nap time.
-You slept for an 8 hour stretch on December 7th for the first time.  Mama was very happy!
-You have started to pout this week and will poke at that lip when someone makes you unhappy.
-You also took pictures with Santa Claus this week!


10 Weeks:
-On December 17th you slept almost 10 hours!  We also moved you to your crib this night for the first time....mama was very sad.
-Your really starting to favor your left hand now....may be a lefty!
-You have laughed out loud in your sleep.
-Your also starting to communicate with us a lot more and will carry on a conversation.  :)

11 Weeks:
-You will pull your paci out and start sucking your hand/fingers.
-You have started to suck your left hand and play with your hair/scratch your head with your right hand.
-You LOVE the ABC song and laugh a lot when we say our vowels.
-You prefer to lay down and stretch/kick your legs sometimes rather than being held a lot and passed around by people.
-You can hold your head up on your tummy for more than a couple minutes at a time, so strong!
-You can hold your head up on your own when we hold you on our shoulder.
-You can wear some 6 month outfits now!
-You had your first Christmas and got LOTS of presents from your family.

12 Weeks:
-You love reading the animal book Santa brought you for Christmas.
-You love to stomp!
-Your ALWAYS moving, even when you eat and sleep
-We had to give you gas medicine for the first time because your tum-tum was hurting
-You started sucking our fingers/gnawing on them.  :)
