3 Months!

Where has the time gone?!  My sweet baby Thomas is no longer a newborn and I am kind of sad about it but at the same time this past month has been a month full of coos and gurgles and smiles and I am loving it!  Thomas is still eating like a champ, usually every 2-3 hours.  Thomas is a pretty good sleeper.  He has been waking around 645 and then will go back down for a short 45 minute nap around 830 and then take another 45 minute nap around 1030 followed by a long 2 hour afternoon nap around 1 and a short 45 minute late afternoon nap around 5.  I would like to consolidate the 2 short morning naps into 1 long 2 hour nap around 9 but he seems to prefer the 2 short naps so that is what we are doing now and it has been working.  Thomas loves his big brother Benjamin and just smiles and coos at him.  And Benjamin loves to smile and coo at Thomas, too!  Thomas isn't crazy about tummy time but we manage a lot of tummy time throughout the day.  He really prefers to be sitting up.  He has recently started batting and grabbing at toys on his play mat or in his play chair and just kick, kick, kicks his legs while he is doing it.  I also think we may have the beginnings of a tooth coming through because he is drooling like a mad man and just chews on his finger or whatever you place in his mouth.  I have even seen him trying to chew on the toys on his play chair.  Overall the last month has just been magical watching Thomas grow and has been such a change moving out of the newborn stage. 

Happy 3 months sweet baby boy, we sure do love you!
