3 Months

- Tuesday, September 28, 2010


I cannot believe my last post was a whole month ago! I have been super busy and have had no time to blog. I have been back at work for 5 weeks now and my second graders have kept me on my toes. I am balancing work and motherhood pretty well now. I cried the morning that I went back to work, of course but the day only got better as I received beautiful pink flowers from Cooper-thanks to my mother and father in law! Then just a week ago I got super emotional while I was watching Cooper sleep at 6 am. I wanted to stay in bed with him all day long and squeeze him tight, instead I sucked it up and got ready for work. I thought that it would get easier to leave him (after I got use to being back in the swing of work) but I think that it has only gotten more difficult. I CANNOT WAIT to walk through the door and hold him in my arms! I am pretty stingy with him at night and on the weekends! I can do that though, he's my baby boy!!

Cooper, at 3 months you are: First and foremost so adorable! You are wearing size two diapers, wearing 0-3 month and 3 month clothes. You are a big boy but still are long and somewhat skinny, some of your 3 mo. clothes are too big. At your last doctor appointment (11 weeks) you weighed 13lbs and 10 oz. You are one healthy baby who has not ever missed a meal! Your weight is in proportion to your height says Dr. Brennan. You love to suck on your hands and we have to keep a pacifier close by. You are still nursing when we are together and I pump while I am at work for you to have when we are apart. You are not a stranger to formula and we may introduce you to rice cereal soon. You are "talking" so much and you have complete
conversations with your eyes and eyebrows, adorable! You recognize mommy and daddy's voices and light up when we talk to you! We love to watch you kick your arms and legs. We laugh and say you are kick starting your motorcycle, dad says you are practicing for when you become a bull rider, mom says we will have to see about that! You can intentionally play with your carseat toys and you are able to rub your eyes when you are sleepy, so cute! It just blows our minds that you are growing up so fast, tear! With that being said we are enjoying all the phases of you and we know that it will only get more fun as time goes by! We love you baby boy...you are a quarter of a year old now! Here you are at 3 months!
