Where does the time go?

Three Months Old

My Appearance:  I am now 3 months old!  How time flies when you’re having fun.  I was weighed at the breast feeding class that I go to on Monday, a day early; I weighed 14lbs and 5oz and was 25 inches long.  I am really starting to fill out, I have a round tummy and my arms and legs now have a roll or two.  My hair is getting longer every day and it is still a light brown but in the sun it’s looking a little more blonde.  I have very chubby cheeks and they must be cute because Mommy kisses them all the time.  I have eyebrows now but the hair is so fine and blonde you can’t really see them.  I am just growing so much and getting pretty big!  I am now in size two diapers and they fit perfect.

Milestones:  I was hanging out with Daddy on April 10^th while Mommy was up stairs and I decided it was time to roll over.  Daddy got pretty excited and called Mommy down so I did it a few more times just to show-off a little bit.  From then on I have only done it a few more times but every time I do I know I can get a reaction from who is ever around.  I am also pretty good at holding my head up.  I like to sit up on Daddy’s lap and just look all around.  I have also found my hands.  I can reach for toys and try and grab them even though it takes me a little while.  I also try and suck my thumb but for some reason every time I finally get it in my mouth Mommy takes it out.

Daily Routine:  My schedule it steadying out a little more these days.  I get up around 7:30AM and want to eat by 8:00AM.  I eat about every 3 hours for the rest of the day.  In between eating I do tummy time or play with different toys.  Right now my favorite toys are my bouncer seat that had a monkey on it that I try to reach and the mobile in my crib, but if it plays music I pretty much like it.  My favorite words right now are “stinker” and “mister.”  I smile every time Mommy says them.

Special Events:  This month I celebrated my first Easter holiday.  I was showered with gifts and felt very loved by everyone.  I also got some pictures taken for Easter and some just for Mommy and Daddy to keep.  That is about all that happened this month.  I just got to spend a lot of time with Mommy and Daddy which is favorite thing to do anyway.

Picture time!!

So the weekend before Easter we were at JC Penny's where they gave us some bunny ears and said they were giving away a free 8x10 Easter picture, so of course I wanted one.  We scheduled an appointment even though we would not get the picture before Easter, I still wanted it.  Fred was working so I took Blaiden to get pictures taken and I took a few of my own just messing around.  After we were done the offer of a free picture was only if you bought something.  So long story short, I bought the entire CD of pictures that we took that day.  Here are a few of my favorites...

As you can see there is only one Easter photo, o'well it was worth it :).

Kiara also got an Easter picture.

Happy Easter!

We had a wonderful Easter this year.  It was Blaiden's first holiday and he sure got spoiled with all the gifts.  Because we live so far away from our family we went over to a friend's house to eat dinner.  It is nice that there are some other people that med school has displaced so we have some people to celebrate with.

Fred was working the camera so here is Blaiden and me.

Amy and Aaron brought the yummy desert.

Even Kiara and Cooper had a good time.

More Visitors!

We had a visit from our friends Ken and Lindsay.  They came down from Michigan for a long weekend to meet Blaiden.  We had a great time hanging out and Blaiden sure loves the attention. 

The trip was to short but hopefully it wont be to long before we see them again!

We Might have a Bronco's Fan...

After Manning signed with the broncos Fred was so happy.  Blaiden has a few Bronco shirts thanks to our friend Lindsay and somehow he ended up with them on for a few days afterwords.

I need to put him in a Cowboy outfit to balance it out a bit.  I am sure he will cheer for the Bronco's with his Dad but I can try and push the Coyboys on him while he is young.
