Austin ~ 3 Months

Happy 3 Months, Austin!

He has been smiling more and more, but also getting fussy more and more. It seems to be gas issues like Aubrey had, but not quite as bad. So far, gripe water is helping some and holding him facing out with pressure on his belly is helping.

We moved him to his crib, which is in the playroom. The girls have been learning quickly that they need to clean up all of their toys and that they can't play in the toy room while he is sleeping in there. I was hoping he would sleep better once moved in there, but that hasn't been the case. I'm still getting up at least 2 times a night. 

He doesn't go to the doctor until next month, but I weighed him on our scale.

Weight: 12 pounds

He is still wearing size 1 diapers, but is slowly transitioning into 6 month clothes, which makes me sad because he's getting bigger. Bobby has no sympathy toward me and just says he doesn't understand why I'm sad because Austin was born big...haha!

Likes: his mommy, being held facing outward, his carseat, his fisher-price piano activity mat and the hanging elephant toy, Christmas tree lights, his sisters and their singing, going to sleep with his pacifier, he's also starting to grab fabric and try to put it in his mouth just like his sister, Aubrey!

Dislikes: gassy belly, being hungry and wet, his sister's hair tickling his face; tummy time

As you can see, he is loving grabbing onto things now.

Milestones: can roll on his side, but not from back to belly quite yet; starting to discover his feet; smiling, cooing and some giggling; grabbing for objects; getting better control of his head every day

That's a wrap!
