We've had a pretty uneventful January. We've been spending lots of time at home and soaking up time with Ben. I go back to work in 1 week. I'm afraid I've forgotten how to do my job. I texted my co-worker the other day to see how things were going. After we caught up, I told him I'd see him soon-his reply, "10 more days...not that I'm counting"! It's been rough on him I'm sure. I nearly lost my mind doing the job when he was gone for 1 week on vacation. My boss has called me twice to see when I was coming back, and if I could return sooner. I feel so fortunate I've had such a long leave (16 weeks). I'm so thankful for a wonderful, understanding husband! We've been pinching pennies this last month and we made it work.
Michael has really changed/grown this past month. We weighed him the other night and he was up to 13 pounds! He's so much fun now, and I've really been soaking up my last few days at home with him. I kind of felt bad letting him nap on me during the afternoons, but I knew it would be over soon, so I've yet to stop! I'm sure Nonna will not be happy (sorry Mom)!
At 3 months:
He eats about 7 oz a feeding.
Smiles and coos all the time.
Loves watching the dogs run and play.
Loves being outside and going for walks in the Baby Bjorn/Moby Wrap
Has had a couple of nights of 10+ hours of sleep!
Grabs and swats at his toys.
Fits in his 3 month clothes perfectly and is wearing a size 2 diaper.
Is rolling over a little (from back to tummy)
Can sit in his Bumbo for short periods of time
Outgrew his "newborn sling" for his bathtub :( I don't know why this makes me so sad...
Ginger Alexander, a dear family friend, made this beautiful quilt for Michael. I just love it! The other side is rubber duckies and bubbles--so cute!
