Another Month Older

Yup! This cute kid is 3 months old! At times I sit here and think already? And other days I feel like "only three months?" In a good way of course. This kid has a strong personality that's for sure! He sure knows what he wants and knows how to get it! He fusses mostly when he is hungry and tired and in between. He is 11 lbs 12 oz and I think but not totally sure 23.5 inches still. He might be 24.5 inches though. He eats every two hours and sometimes every hour and a half. He still will put himself to sleep at night. All we have to do is kiss him goodnight out the blankets on him and make sure his binki is in his mouth. He will pull the blanket up over his head if there is lights on and close his little eyes and fall asleep. No rocking needed or anything. I like it and don't try to have him fall asleep in my arms for fear that he will get used to that at night. Like he is during the day. All though...today I layed him in bed to take a nap and I had to give him his binki about 20 times but eventually he got there. But not without Ricky Raccoon by his face and music on. And he slept for like 40 minutes. Not great but progress. He usually won't nap unless he is in someones arms. But I will take a napless day over a sleepless night any day! He wakes up about very two hours at night lately but usually goes rigt back to sleep. Unless it's starting to get light outside. Then he will come hop in bed with us. I'm horrible and started him on his habit since day one. I know it's not safe for baby. But I sleep to light anymore and most the time he is kicking his legs on mine or grunts or both so I don't sleep much anyway. He is getting chunky. And by chunky I mean meat on his thighs and a little round face. He is just so long that he is still skinny looking. He is such a ham and will smile up the wazoo in the morning. He lives to cuddle and watch tv with Dad when ever possible. We sure love him! 

I just realized....

....I never posted about Blake turning two months. And here we are about to hit the three month mark. At two months his stats are....weight 9lbs 12oz. 9th percentile. Haha little skinny dude! His height? 23.5 inches. Which is 58th percentile and his head is 39 centimeters round. Which is 24th percentile. So what he is missing in weight is because he is so tall right? Lol that's what we say. As long as he continues on his growth curve we will be good. But I'm positive he is. He has gained since his appointment. So it will be interesting to see what he is weighing in at on his four month check up. Everything else developmental wise he is doing great. And right on track. The doctor is shocked again at how strong he is. He can hold his own weight and has since about two weeks old. And his head is crazy strong. So we are proud.
