He fell asleep like this....
He was watching this......
I guess it's time to turn off the TV. I didn't think he was paying much attention to it while it was on. But now that he is, I feel the need to keep it off most of the time during the week.
Alright. Prepare yourself for baby talk because the rest of this post is going to be anything/everything Baby P. Here is the down low on the hunk of cuteness these days...
He is almost 3 months... 3 MONTHS. How did that happen? I have always heard that the first 3 months are the worst (aside from the teen years). If that is true, we really lucked out. We are in for it with the next kid!! He was cranky from 12-2am the first week and he would only sleep for about two hours at a time too. That is until we started putting him on his belly (I know, I know.. back to sleep and all that jazz... but we have a heart monitor baby monitor so I justify it) and once we did that he started sleeping through the night. That was a welcome relief because I was pretty sleep deprived the first month! Now he sleeps for 9 hours a night. It's wonderful! We have a pretty good schedule going right now but I am sure it will change soon.
I can't believe how big he is getting and how fast he is growing up... everyone says it, but it's true. He is turning into a chunky monkey and I love it. His thighs are seriously edible, yall. You should see them. Yum. He is officially in his 3-6 month clothes full time now and some of those are even too small length wise. Along with being a chunckstir he is really long!
He hates his swing and everything babies "should" like. He loves his play mat and walks/outings and his bath. I am anxiously awaiting for when he can use his jumperoo because I know he is going to love that! I am bad about tummy time since he sleeps on his tummy now. But when we do it he lifts his head all the way up on his arms and will stay there, so he must be getting a decent amount of tummy time in his crib.
I think he is starting to learn who Dan and I are. He seriously loves his daddy. Even if Dan is gone all week, he gets the biggest smile on his face when he sees him for the first time when he gets home. It's so cute. I don't think I have been away from P long enough for him to really realize I am gone, but I am sure that alone means he does know who I am. He does say "mama". I know it's just his babble but I love that he says it anyway!! lol
I am loving being a stay at home wife/mom! I am surprised at how busy it keeps me. The days go by so fast!! I do give myself goals everyday. Run. Walk Dog. Run errands. Clean. Really anything. I just need to give myself a few goals to complete each day. Sometimes they don't get done though because P falls asleep in my arms and I just nap with him.. those are the best!
I typed out P's birth story because I love reading other womens. But for some reason now that it is all typed out I feel like it's too personal to put on here. It was the most humbling/ incredible/ scary/ worth wile experience that I have ever had though... and I know Dan agrees.
Are you babied out enough yet?!?! Obviously the last three months of my life have all been about caring for Baby P, so really there is not much to write about other than him! P is being baptized this weekend and he has lots of wonderful family coming in for that and we have a busy summer/fall lined up. So maybe some non-baby posts will come soon. But I doubt it! ;)
