Sammy Jay Update: 3 Month Update

Another month has past and my lil man is 3 months old (this past Saturday), and I think this month has been the best one so far! Here some of the major highlights from this month-

Clothes- He is still wearing some 3 month clothing (however, those will be put away by the end of this week I think) but I also have him wearing all the 3-6 month outfits he also has. Also, I did pull out his 6 month clothes and washed them because I'm pretty sure he's about to have another growth spurt. I has seems to have lengthen out this month and lost a little bit of his belly weight. We also have him in size 2 diapers for the majority of this month. I'm hoping he doesn't go through another growth spurt too soon because we have a lot of diapers for him to use - got to love a good diaper sale!

 Movement- As you saw from my last blog post- he can now roll over and he's doing it all the time. He can roll from his back to his belly but hasn't master it going the other way yet. Also this month he has started to use his hands more to grip things and reach for objects. He hasn't perfected that yet, but it's very cool watching him learn and explore the world around him.

 

Eating- We are still going strong on breast-feeding and haven't needed to supplement in a very long time. I'm just hoping I can keep up my supply once I return to work this week. Also were taking the doctors advice and holding off until he's at least four months to introduce any solid food to his system.

 

Sleeping- We are really blessed that this month has been a complete 180 from last month. For the past three weeks or so, we've been really implementing a bedtime routine and it has seem to work miracles. We put him down between 9-10 PM and he will typically sleep until 4-5 AM, and then go back to sleep until 7:30-8:00AM. As long as he keeps this routine up it should work pretty well with our work schedule. 

 

Talking- of course were not getting real word yet but he does love "talking" especially while you're changing his diaper. Also he loves trying to blow "raspberries" which he's learning from us and just trying to copy what we're doing. It is a very funny sight to see.

When it comes to other milestones for this month, either I don't remember or can't think of any at this moment. I have really enjoyed this month being that it's my last one before I return back to work (which is happening tomorrow- sad face). However I know the months to come are going to be more and more exciting as he continues to learn and grow every day!
