3 months old!

Well today Landon is 3 months old, I cannot believe it's already been 3 months since our little guy was born. It has gone by so fast, but I can't even remember what life was like before he was around... probably boring and well rested :)

I'm not sure how much he weighs or how long he is, who knows where our scale is.  I'll be able to get his 4 month stats at his appointment next month.  I do know that my back aches at the end of the day so this little guy is not so little anymore!

Clothing Size:
Sadly most of your 3 month clothes don't fit anymore.  There are a few outfits I can still get on you, but they are snug :)  So we are moving up to 6 month size, and even some 6-9 month onesies.  They aren't that big on you either which is so sad!



Diapers:
Still at size 2, both during the day and at night.  I'm thinking we will have to move up to size 3 before we get to our other box of size 2s.  We might have to do some exchanging at the store.

Feeding:
You are eating 6 times a day/night, in addition to your nightly bottle.  You take 5 oz at every feeding, and then 6-8 in your bottle before bedtime.  I am thinking we will have to move you up from 5 to 6 oz soon because you are starting to get hungry sooner than 3 hours during the day.  Let's face it, we aren't going to feed every 2 hours!  So you might be going up soon.  We are looking forward to hopefully getting the go ahead to start introducing some pureed food at your 4 month appt.  You are a hungry little boy!

Hair/Eyes:
Your hair is getting lighter and lighter!  It's still dark but it has lightened up so much from when you were born, and I think it will continue to do so until you are a total blondie.  It's so cute! :)

You still have your pretty blue eyes and I am getting hopeful they will stick around!  You will be cute as a button with any color eyes, but yours are a gorgeous blue currently.

Sleep:
You are still doing awesome at night.  Pretty much the same as your 2 month post but we are putting you to bed a bit earlier.  You are sleeping from about 8:45 or so until around 5:30.  Some days it's 4:30, or 6, still a little inconsistent at what time it is, but as long as it's not the middle of the night, who cares?  You are a great sleeper and hopefully by next month, you will be sleeping even later!
Naps are still good.  You take about an hour to an hour and a half nap after you've been up for an hour, usually around 9:15 or so.  Then you will take about a 2 hour nap (on a good day!) in the afternoon around 2:00.  Throughout the rest of the day you take 30 minute catnaps sometimes about an hour after you eat.




Development:
-You aren't rolling over yet, or showing any signs that you want to.

-You still despise tummy time and will only tolerate it for a couple minutes before burying your face in your mat and crying... it's so pitiful :(

-You have your fists in your mouth nonstop.  If you take your pacifier when you are awake, it will only stay in there for a couple minutes before you spit it out and get your fists in your mouth.





-Spitting up is so much better thank goodness.  You no longer spit up loads  and loads right after eating.  You are much calmer while eating which has definitely helped.

-You are the loudest burper!  You give your daddy a run for his money.  Between that and gas, you are a very noisy little boy. :)

-You are drooling a ton, maybe we are on the fast track to teething?

-You have laughed a few more times for me, and it is just the absolute best sound ever!  Daddy hasn't heard it yet so we are working on that.



-You love to chew and drool all over my shoulder and arm when I hold you up there.  It's pretty cute but you get me pretty messy sometimes.

-You are still so active, constantly kicking your legs and moving your arms.  You make the funniest faces while you move too.

You are just the sweetest thing and we love you tons Landon!!!
