Luke - 3 Months

Look at this big boy!!  Luke hit the 3 month mark November 1st.  He is such a big boy!!  Still putting on the ounces, he weighed in at 14lbs 12 oz when I snuck him on the scale at the Dr. office the night the kids got their flu shots.  His 3 month clothes are not going to fit him for much longer!!  But I am still squeezing his bottom into size 1 diapers as I still have SO many of them!!  They say they fit to 14 lbs, which is probably right, but this boy is still rocking the size 1's for a bit longer. 

What Luke is up to at 3 Months:

• Loves staring at his hands.  He hasn't been real big on putting them in his mouth too much yet - but I'm sure it will come soon.

• He started daycare full time on October 21st - the first few days were rough, since he wouldn't take a bottle.  But now he eats like a champ, eating 5.5 ounces every 3 hours. 

• He still wakes up at night, and yes, I feed him since that gets him right back to sleep.  Every night is still so different.  Some nights he will go 6 hours, some nights he will get up at 1am and 4am, 2 nights he slept from 9 - 5!  As I've learned with the last two, this too shall pass.  And honestly, I enjoy my snuggle time with him in the quiet times of the morning since that is really the only time we get just the two of us with no one else screaming about needing something!  And I've taken up coffee, so the caffeine gets me through the days!

• He still takes most of his naps in his sheep swing, which won't be for much longer as he seems to be outgrowing it!

• He found his voice around 2 months, but now he has learned he can make the highest pitched squeel ever.  And he does it a lot.  And it is pretty funny! 

• He is the LOUDEST eater.  Seriously, so loud.  He makes a clicking noise with each suck.  He is actually just a really loud baby in general.  Breathing, eating, sleeping, you name it!

• He is not the best at burping, which then turns into a huge gas bubble which eventually comes out as the biggest spit up ever.  It happened to me last night and soaked my nursing tank so bad I had to change it! 

• He loves his brother and sister so much.  And we are STILL working with Hannah on being gentle.  Luke is going to be one.tough.cookie.

Love these 3!
