How is my newborn already 3 months old (insert weeping emoji). I guess that makes him no longer a newborn (insert 4 weeping emojis).......Jeremy always laughs that girls don't use ONE emoji to express their emotions it's always like 5. I agree, one never seems enough -- I need 5 of those heart eye ones to truly express how I feel haha. Anyways - rabbit trail!
Luke - You are such a joy in our house! While you are our fussiest baby yet you give out smiles so freely it makes up for all that. Your siblings adore you and often fight over who's "brother" you are (not sure how they've missed this concept still). You are the perfect addition to our family, it's hard to imagine life without you here. At least 10 times a day I look at you and am filled with thankfulness and joy - we adore you!
Weight: Finally finally you are getting some tiny rolls on those legs! Now that you can eat better it's so good to see you grow even if you are still pretty little :)
Clothing: Still in 0-3 month and a few 3 month! While boy clothes are never going to be as cute as baby girl clothes (it's hard to compete with ruffles and bows) I adore the convenience of not coordinating everything! Onesie, shorts, done.
Sleep: You are the BEST sleeper so far, no Beaumont baby in
this house before you has ever gone 6 hours at night before 9 months. You slept from 10:45-5:45 one night last week whoooooooo that was incredible. Woke up feeling like, "oh ya........that is what sleep feels like, round two please". But normally it's 10:30-4, then 5:30 then up at 7:30. I feel like we may be finally getting out of that newborn fog where everyday feels like I'm on a cruise ship.
Eating: Going better but not amazing still :( Getting that tongue tie and lip tie fixed was horrendous and I was hoping things would finally click after that. But it's still taking time for you to learn HOW to use that tongue - we'll get there baby~
Personality/Mood: You are a fairly high maintenance baby! I think you've
forgotten you are number 3.......as in I have two other children. As long as mommy is holding you and preferably looking AT you you are content. I am rejoicing though that you are not truly a colic baby though (clearly I've realized I couldn't handle that). You really are a sweet baby - soooooo generous with your smiles and adorable coos. Those blue eyes melt me!
Loves: You love people talking to you - particularly your sister! It is adorable to see you together, she loves you so much. You love me carrying you around and your swing (Thank God!). You've found your fists and chomp away on them all day long!
Doesn't love: Being put down haha! Most of all you DO NOT LIKE that carseat :)
This past week you met friends from all over the world! 8 different countries to be exact
