Our little guy is already 3 months....seriously how did this happen? He is such a joy and seriously melts me everyday!!!
This boy's smile....is a heart melter. His whole body lights up and he smiles just when we look at him. Oh how I love that smile. He is going to be a charmer.
He is such a strong little guy and is able to sit up now for about 5 seconds, but he is determined to do it. Not sure where he gets that determination from..lol! He is such a good baby and really is just a very content little man!
He loves his bumbo. He loves that he can look around and see what is going on! He likes to be up and seeing. He wants to be such a big boy already! He doesn't like to lay down like a baby...no time for that!
Knox LOVES tummy time! He would stay on his tummy all day if he could. He already moves his legs and tries to push forward...oh no he cannot be mobile anytime soon...yikes mommy is not ready for that!
He is a noisy little guy. He is constantly cooing and trying to imitate sounds we make. He continues to sing in his sleep! He takes 4 naps a day. 2 that are 2 to 2 1/2 hours and 2 naps that are 1 hour! He sleeps all night too! Such a good little guy! He loves to be read to. He flaps his arms and kicks his legs with excitement when being read to. He loves to sing "Take me Out to the Ballgame" and he loves to do patty cake. He also LOVES the bath. He splashes and kicks like crazy. He is such a little frog! He can already reach out and grab items in front of him. He can bat things too!
And sister...she continues to adore him! She is always kissing and hugging him. I love it!
Going to two children has been challenging at times. We have had some rough starts in the beginning. Knox in NICU. Knox struggling with nursing and then having to pump for all his bottles. He had gas issues and has struggled with gas pains and going to the bathroom, but we made it. We finally have figured out his issues and how to help him with feeding. He just has to burp really frequently and we have to go slow when feeding him. He also needs to be upright for quite awhile after he eats.
I really struggled with the mommy guilt at first. I had this huge guilt for Nella and trying to make sure she felt okay about this big sister stuff. But as usual I worry and she just rolls with it, always! She really has done amazing. It is hard to balance it both and be sure that everyone is getting all that they need, but I feel like with lots of prayer, patience, and trying new things, we have made it to 3 months and we are in a really good spot. And there are not words that could describe how my heart melts watching my sweet loves together. Oh how amazing it is to see the love between them. He lights up when she is around and she smiles constantly when talking about her knoxy. She is his biggest cheerleader and always trying to include him in what she is doing. It is magical. I am so humbled and amazed that I was chosen to be their mother. Wow God WOW! Oh how you love us! We are so in love!!!
