Wow... time flies! I cannot believe our newest baby is already 3 months old!!!! I swear it went by so much faster this time around. Although, that could easily be because we have a 2 year old running around. I finally feel like we are getting in our groove and Jack is doing much better with the reflux. It was a hard first few months watching him be so uncomfortable and in so much pain... not to mention feeling helpless when we tried anything and everything to make him feel better with no luck. Jeff's work schedule was so crazy during this time... we definitely were loosing our minds sometimes! However, Jack is now just ALL SMILES and it melts my heart... such a happy baby when the reflux is not bothering him. Hopefully, he is growing out of that soon!
- Jack's smile - just cannot get enough of that adorable grin!!
- He is such a little chunk and already outgrowing so many of Cooper's clothes from when Cooper was 4-6 months old!
- During bath time, we have to focus on cleaning out the rolls on his thighs and especially under his neck which are very hard to reach - haha!
- He is almost out of size 2 diapers already!!!!!!! Jeff accidentally put one of Cooper's size 5's on one night and it was only a little big ;)
- He is doing great at tummy time and very strong with holding his head & neck up for long periods of time. He definitely enjoys this MUCH more than Cooper ever did - lol!
- Loves to grab my hair and has the strongest grip that I have a hard time prying his fingers off!
- Jack is still sleeping in the nap nanny for nighttime, but we are working on naps in the crib to transition him out of it... Jeff & I were just saying we can hear the words when he is an adult.... "you strapped me into a foam pillow on the floor and let me sleep there for 3 months?"
- Cooper is so cute always coming up to him and saying "boo, boo, boo, boo" - no idea where Jeff got this, but Cooper has quickly picked up and always wants to go give Jack "boo, boo, boo, boo!" He also loves to tickle Jack's toes... although I did catch him trying to wipe off his mouth with a burp cloth - sweet thought, but execution was a little frightening!
- Great sleeper! think those extra lbs really help out ;) - By week 9 he was sleeping from 10 or 11pm through the night and a few times made I from 9pm until 9am! By week 12 he was full on 12 hours - YAY!
- He is however a bit of a light sleeper and jumps at loud noises when he is startled by something.. mostly Cooper!
- Loves the bassinet on the stroller which has come in very handy!
- I sing an old Camp Mystic song - Rose, Rose, Rose, Rose before I put him down at night & he crashes out before it's over
- He's got a small case of Cradle Cap and we've been doing the olive oil & toothbrush scrub. However, all Jeff has stocked in the house is uber expensive olive oils special ordered from around the world... needless to say, this better work quick or we'll be adding a crostini and glass of vino to bath time!
- Jack's hair is starting to come in, but he still has a ring around the lower layer. His eyes are turning even more blue and are just beautiful... especially when he smiles!
- Despite those eyes from Cindy, I keep hearing from people that Jack looks more like me (and several comments on his smile) and Cooper is looking more Clifton?! Who knows - I do think they both are a pretty good mix of features... He's jus so darn cute!
- LOVE THIS AGE!
I accidentally took his 3 month pic in the same outfit as his 2 month, so I couldn't help but post them side by side... check out those thighs!
