Happy At Three Months!

107 - CopyI slacked in taking pictures of our day to day life this month, but I did do two “photo shoots” with Joshua and of course I can’t ever narrow them down.  I hope you like them!

Joshua is growing so quickly and is the happiest guy around.  Each of us love the newest little addition to our family and we’re smitten each time he smiles at us.  He breaks into a big open mouthed smile every time he makes eye contact with someone and it is impossible not to return it.  This sweet guy has had a pretty eventful third month.

Here are some smiles:052 - Copy095 - Copy096 - Copy

Joshua learned to roll from his belly to his back two days after turning two months old.  He’s also getting good at grabbing and holding little toys.  While he hasn’t become attached to it, he still enjoys a good thumb sucking, though he’s not too picky and will happily suck his other fingers instead.  He still prefers the paci.

In the week after turning two months old, Joshua  started lengthening his night sleep and then he slept through the night for at least two weeks, all while napping perfectly in the day.  It was blissful!  Then came vaccines and a growth spurt.  Now most of his naps only last 45 minutes and he wakes once to eat at night.  Now that I’m spoiled, I am struggling and looking forward to a return to the old routine.

We waited until the rest of the family was healthy to have Joshua’s two month vaccines, so he was about two weeks late.  He cried inconsolably for a few minutes, then took a wonderful nap, then cried for an extended time until I gave him Tylenol.  Poor guy!

Another cute smile series:100 - Copy110 - Copy127 - Copy

While we admittedly would like to see him with his eyes closed a little more (ha ha), we love this little guy and love the way his eyes light up with his smile.  He’s working on giving real belly laughs, but he’s not quite there yet, despite Jacob’s best efforts.  He has brought us so much joy and we love watching our big boys love on our baby boy.  We can’t wait to watch him grow though part of me hopes it goes slowly!
