The Third Months a Charm

I know that I am a little bit late in posting this one as Wade is now halfway through his third month, but better late than never, right?

These last few weeks with Wade have been so so much fun.  He is just developing the best personality and is still the happiest baby in the world.  There are so few times that he gets upset during the day and usually if we feed him or put him down for a nap his world (and ours) goes back to its happy 'ole standard pretty quickly. 

Since we didn't have a doctor's appointment this month, I have no idea what his stats are as far as weight and length.  I do know that right now most 3 month clothes are too small.  For the most part we are putting our little guy in 3-6 or 6 month outfits so I don't think he is missing out on too many meals.  One of the hardest things about him growing so quickly is having to pack up the clothes that don't fit him anymore.  How is it possible that I have given away what feels like a ton of stuff to friends and family and I still have bags of clothes that Wade can't wear.  It is just so sad to think that he will NEVER wear them again.  It just doesn't seem like he has been around long enough to be outgrowing so many things.

Wade is also getting so good at grabbing his toys, burp cloths, our fingers or anything else within his reach.  And whatever it is he manages to get in his little hands immediately goes directly into his mouth! Sometimes I cringe at what he is chewing on thinking that can't taste or feel good to him but it never seems to phase him.  There is also an incredible amount of drool that seems to constantly be streaming from his mouth.  And again, I think sitting all day with a soaking wet shirt can't be comfortable, but what can I do?  I can't change his clothes 13 times a day just so he stays dry.

We haven't seen any rolling over yet but Wade is getting good at grabbing his toes, rolling into a ball and hurling himself onto his side.  I guess you could say he is halfway there.  I think Chris would like to see him reach this milestone, but I keep reminding him that once that starts, there is no going back.  Our lives will be very different with Wade when that finally happens.  We will no longer have the freedom to lay him wherever we want and know that he will stay right where we left him.  So, for that reason, I can wait a little longer for the good times to roll.

To wrap this up I will leave you with a couple pics of the little man during his third month...


You talkin' to me?

Holding his head up.  Such a strong boy!
Happy 3 months sweet baby!
