3 Monthes

Jocelynne You are 3 months old today

We have pack away most of your 0-3 month clothes only a few are hanging on. We have pulled out a good amount of your 3-6 month clothes though you are so short that we have to roll up the pants legs.

You weigh 12lbs 5oz almost double your birth weight

I can't believe that now I give your age in months instead of weeks

You have had two lots of immunizations in the last month and have done amazing for both, no grizzles or grumps afterwards.

We have started a bedtime routine led by your cues and needs and for the last week you have been asleep by 7pm at the latest. You still wake around 11pm and 4 am for feeds but books I have been reading all say 1-2 feeds until you are as old as a year are normal although Mama is hoping you drop the 4am feed sooner.

You don't show much interest in rolling over, a couple of times you have rolled from your back onto you side by swinging your legs but seem quite content to stay on your side instead of pushing hard to get over your shoulder onto your tummy.

You have started sitting up assisted in between Mama's legs and seem to enjoy it and have good stability I think we might have you sitting before rolling over. Yesterday Mama moved your pushchair from the flat position to a slanted sitting position(see picture) and you LOVE it. You look all around and have yet to realize you can't seem Mama anymore (you have more interesting things to look at). I love how it makes your ears stick out.

You love tummy time and have started doing the parachute position with you arms, legs, and head off the mat at the same time. You have also gotten much more interested in your baby gym and bouncy chair. I think it is the fact that you have a longer attention span.

You have started "talking" you love to tell stories and sometimes just lay under you baby gym and talk to your self.

Everyday when I go to get you out of your crib in the morning you seem to have changed so much. Everyday I am in awe of the fact that I am your Mother I look into you big blue eyes and fall a little bit more in love with you if that is possible. Every single day with you is a blessing.
