Grayson 3 Months

I can't get over how quickly time is flying. It seems like only yesterday that we found out at 13 weeks gestation we were having a little boy.....and here he is at 13 weeks....3 MONTHS old. He is our happy, big boy! :)

* I am late getting this up (again) due to Grayson starting daycare...and getting his first cold. Poor man is pretty miserable this weekend. :(

Weight/length:

Big guy for sure! We had to take him to the doctor a couple of days ago due to his cold and found out that he is 15 pounds! Such a big boy! Not sure about his length, but looking at pictures (and based on his clothes) I can tell he is definately longer. We are officially in 3-6 months clothes and still in size 2 diapers. He normally eats 6 oz every 3-3.5 hours, but with this cold we are fighting, he's been taking anywhere between 3-4 oz every 4 hours or so. 

Sleep:

Grayson has really stepped up his sleep game over the past few weeks. He is normally in bed between 7-7:30 and is sleeping until 6, sometimes 6:30. No complaints here at all! Napping is still the struggle, and with this being his first week at daycare, I'm a bit afraid of what that may look like for him. Hopefully he will adjust and will get some rest at school AND at home. I am also dreading weaning him from his swaddle....although I'm seeing the signs that it needs to happen in the next month. UGH.

*UPDATE: with daycare, we have had to move bedtime up to about 6:45. Grayson will nap at school, but sometimes for only 30 minutes at a time. He has been BEAT. Top that off with sickies....and sad, sleepy baby!

Likes:

Grayson loves eating, chewing on his hands, smiling, trying to laugh, talking/yelling, kicking his legs, high fives with dad, riding in his stroller, and tummy time on occasion.

Dislikes:

Grayson hates being burped (especially with his first bottle), being hungry, napping in his crib, getting his nose cleaned, congestion, and throwing up.

Milestones:

Little man loves to "talk" to us. He has been cooing up a storm and seems to try to mimic sounds he hears. He is SUCH a smiley baby. His whole face lights up when we talk and play with him....and I literally melt every time! He has also started trying to laugh, but we still don't quite have the hang of it. He loves to bring his hands together and then shove them both in his mouth. He has also really started grasping and swiping at his toys. Vain little guy LOVES looking at himself in the mirror. We are also seeing some great gains with neck strength (despite his hate for tummy time) and he desperately is wanting to sit up. We can have him reclined back and he will throw himself forward. I'm hoping we can start using our Bumbo more often and soon! :)

We just need little man to start feeling better soon....all that congestion induced throw up is NO fun at all!
