Three Months

So what if R is almost 4 months old by the time I actually get around to pressing publish? I'm gonna play the working mom card. It is so so difficult to find the balance. It's been impossible to sit down and actually put this post together. In fact, most of it has been written here and there on my phone. The only thing keeping me from publishing was that I wanted to put some pictures in it.
(Blurry action shot. It's getting more difficult to keep you still.)



At three months you:
- started sleeping through the night! The week you turned three months old you slept 9-12 hours straight every single night. It was amazing. 
- moved up to size 2 diapers
- are wearing true 3 month clothes
- love watching tv
- love watching anything with lights (Christmas trees and lights are awesome!)
- smile at everyone
- LAUGH! And it is the best thing I've ever heard. 
- talk a lot & experiment with your voice 
- started sticking out your tongue. It's pretty adorable. 
- discovered how to use your hands & are very adept at swiping at hanging toys. You also loved grabbing my long hair & putting it in your mouth. You've also noticed that you have feet, but can't do anything with them yet. 
- still don't like tummy time but you definitely don't hate it quite as much as you used to
- weigh somewhere around 13 pounds and you were 23 inches long at your last appointment
- got your 2 month vaccines and were just kind of pitiful all evening. All you wanted to do was cuddle. And I was more than happy to oblige. 
- had your first Thanksgiving
- experienced your first Alabama loss. It was a tough one for everyone involved. 
- are more loved than you will ever know.
