Three Thrilling Months

DSC_0825
Our three month “photo shoot” proved to be rather difficult.  He is very smiley, until I get that big black camera in front of my face and he gets confused and stops smiling.

And then there is the “holy moley what was that bright light that just flashed in my eyes” face that I see if I’m lucky enough to need the flash.  This is usually followed by the “I’m freaked out” cry or the “I’m over this and mad at you” scream.

At 3 months we (unofficially) have weighed in at 11lbs 2.2 ounces. 
He’s getting longer too, but that’s only been measured by my expert measuring eye.
If you are interested in looking back at one and two months – you can check that out here.
We’ve started to use the exersaucer too.  He seems to enjoy it in small spurts – I think he likes being able to look around and see the world from a different perspective. You know, other from lying on his back.

Now, I promise that I’m not leaving him in the saucer so long that this happens regularly – or has even happened more than this once.  It was too cute though, so of course my first reaction was to grab the camera.
Saturday afternoon when he woke up from his nap, I was folding laundry in the living room.  So I put him in the saucer to check out the toys and so I could talk to him while I folded.  I looked down for a split second and when I looked at him again – he was back asleep.  I guess the nap wasn’t really over.

My three bed headed kiddos.

Yes, if you were wondering, the girls do still exist.
They still absolutely LOVE their little brother and are great helpers.
They are starting summer soccer now, so pictures are sure to come from that.
Last but not least – here is a photo from Mother’s Day.

oh- wait!  I wanted to share some chalk art that K made.  She’s turned into quite the little artist.
