3 months old!

Happy 3 Month Birthday Liam! 

Liam is really becoming an interesting little guy, doing new things literally every day! 

- Eating 22 - 25 ounces EACH day! (as of the past week or so!) 
- Becoming more and more alert.

- Able to be laid down (tired, but awake) and wiggle/fall asleep on his own

- When he stretches while/after waking up, which he is really good at, he often toots... a lot... it is hilarious!

- He laughs and giggles and can be a chatty cathy 

- When we go to get him when he wakes up in the morning, after you say "Good morning Liam" he gives us this confused look and then SMILES! when he realizes who it is! LOVE!
- He slept through the night for a few days, but is back to eating once after midnight/during the night and usually again between 7 - 9 am 

- Still not a fan of tummy time

- Hopefully is up to almost 12 pounds - he will be weighed again on Tuesday... 2 weeks from when he weighed 11 pounds...

- Starting to wear 3-6 month clothes and 6 months pjs (because he loves to stretch and the 6 month pjs give him lots of room to stretch)

- Not wearing swaddlers to sleep at night... just a cotton blanket used to swaddle enough to keep his startle reflex from waking him up, but loose enough for him to wiggle out of it if he wants to

- Sleeping with a sound machine, we got this at about 2 months, since Nolan pointed out that our house is silent and he came from a womb that had constant noise for 10 months... We do think it helps him sleep more soundly... 

We helped Liam celebrate his 3 month birthday with a day FULL of fun! Unfortunately for Liam, I think it was too long!  Note to Mom and Dad. 

• Lunch date at Red Robin with Mom and Dad
• 3 month photos at Sears
• New car shopping - test drives included!
• Toyota Sienna
• Honda Odyssey
• Total meltdown, from such a busy day of eating and napping around town, about 2 minutes from home :-( 
• Eating an ounce or so every hour and fussing in between from 630 - 830pm
• Finally gave it to overtiredness :-/ and slept for over 3 hours! :-)
