3 Months Old!


Well Aaron is now three months old, just within the last month it seems like so much has changed.  Andrew and I measured him last night and he has already grown another inch from his two month check up.  He loves to make a lot of noise, its so cute!  We are slowly introducing the crib, but for now he sleeps in the pak n play still in our room ha ha.  He has figured out he has feet and is not afraid to use them to push up when he is sitting in someones lap.  He laughs out loud now and loves to put his hands in his mouth.  Just last week he started sleeping for longer hours during the night without needing to wake up in the middle of the night to eat....it has been heavenly! 

It seems that he is for sure like his daddy, he will sit in front of the tv for about an hour to hour and a half and watch baseball, wrestling, and golf.  I've tried disney movies and mickey mouse clubhouse, but he doesn't seem to care much for but he will tolerate for just a little bit.  He has gained good control of his head when he sits up.  We are now on the road to teething, he has his nights where he is very fussy and wants to be held constantly and other nights he is okay.  It has been quite an adventure so far, we are very interested to see the type of personality he will have.  We were just discussing how everyday we can see the little features he carries between the two of us, kind of blows our mind!

2 Months In.......

Mr. Aaron turned 11 weeks today!  Yes I will say it a million times, it is going by way too fast!  He is getting to be such a big boy, he remains on track as far as development goes, he puts his hands in his mouth, is still working on controlling his head better, and today started to reach for his feet while sitting up in someone else's lap.  He smiles all the time and does a lot of talking!  My goal for this week was to work on getting him to nap in his crib, well that was not successful but he is staying in his swing longer and falling asleep, which has taken some time.  The last couple of nights he has slept for about 7 hours, which is heavenly!!!  Only once has he woken up fussy, but he ended up going right back to sleep.  I started back to work two weeks ago and so far its going good, it took a while to adjust to and get back in to a routine.  He mostly stays with his daddy at night which has made it so much easier on me, because I know he is well taken care of.  During the day time I have the help of grandma's and his nina which I am so so thankful for so I am able to sleep.  He is the happiest baby around our families and seems so comfortable with pretty much everybody.  We are so blessed to have the help that we do while getting use to our new roles as parents.  The first couple of months were the most stressful, I know we have many more to get through, but we feel that we have gotten him figured out as far as what each cry means and when its time for a nap.  We wouldn't trade this for anything else in the world. 

Now here are some pictures to enjoy, which i'm sure the majority of you have already seen....
