3 months old!

Jesse you are three months old!

The past three months have flown by, but it feels like you’ve been with us forever! 

You are a sweet, easy-going baby and we’re so thankful for the way you’ve just fit into our lives and your brother’s schedule!  That being said you don’t have much of a schedule of your own(yet).  I will get going on that soon!  Right now you usually take one or two longer naps (am and pm) and then some cat naps throughout the day.  Your naps don’t really occur in your crib, usually you fall asleep in your carseat for one of your longer naps and continue sleeping in it even after we’ve returned home from wherever we were.  Your other nap often happens on your playmat, swing, bouncy seat, my arms etc. 

You like to eat every 3ish hours during the day and closer to every 2 hours in the evening.  You WERE sleeping THROUGH. THE. NIGHT (for several weeks)!!!  But those nights are gone.  You are still a good sleeper, usually waking up between 2-4 and then again between 6-7am.  You fall right back asleep after both of those feedings so I have no room to complain.  Besides you are the cutest, smiliest baby (even in the middle of the night) that I love my time with you.  You take a bottle like a champ which helps when we’re out and about or if I’m going to be away from you for a while. 

Jesse you are so smiley and you love it when your brother talks to you.  You do NOT like tummy time and we’re still working on strengthening your neck muscles.  You can lift your head up, but you don’t like to!  You have a fussy time in the evenings, but it’s usually cured with bouncing, walking, snuggling, or feeding you.

Jesse you are big!  You are wearing 3-6 and 6 month clothes and size 2 diapers.  You have the cutest rolls and chubby cheeks.  We are so so so crazy about you.  Before you were born I wasn’t sure how my heart was going to love another child as much as I loved your brother.  I knew I would, I just wasn’t sure how… but now when I look at you I think my heart might just burst!  We love you SO much and are thankful every day for you and your brother!

Happy 3 months old, Jesse!
