Paxton Owen {3 Months}

Wow POW, slow down!!  We've hit the three month mark already, even though it only feels like he should be a month old still.  We have no new stats to report on, but we will go in for our checkup next month, so I'm curious to see where this little big guy stands.  For now, we'll update you on the day to day stuff :)

EATING
It's very apparent that he still likes to eat a lot!  He's still exclusively breastfed and is growing like a weed!  He typically eats every 3 hours still {at least when I'm home}, but goes for longer stretches at night.  I've changed my work schedule, so I usually work 2-10 and this little guy will typically only eat once during that period, then I feed him when I get home.  I'm still pumping every 3-4 hours at work, so my freezer stash is outgrowing the designated shelf space, not that I'm complaining about that though!  Hopefully he'll want to start eating every 4 hours so we have a little more time :)

SLEEPING
This guy is a sleeping champ, especially with his crazy big brother in the house!  I don't have him on any type of schedule yet, so he sleeps periodically throughout the day, then he usually goes down around 8 for the night.  If I'm working, I usually feed him when I get home around 11, if not he usually eats around 8.  He will typically sleep until 4, eats, then goes back to sleep until around 7.  Let's hope that this sleeping thing continues for us!

ACTIVITY
We are still working on tummy time, although he seems to be getting really aggravated with it lately!  I think he forgets that he knows how to roll over, so we end up with our face in the mat screaming and crying until Mama flips him over.  He loves spending time in his bumbo and wriggles around to watch everything that's going on.  He is such a busy body - his legs and arms are always going a mile a minute when he's not sleeping!  I think he's just trying to figure out a way to keep up with Cade, but I'm totally cherishing our days of limited mobility :)  Once this little one starts to move, we're so in for it!!  He's also starting to show interest in some of his toys.  We pulled out Sophie the giraffe and he seems to enjoy chewing on her quite a bit.  He also likes Mortimer the Moose and other crinkly, soft, crunchy toys.

Happy three months to our sweet little boy!










Quite possibly my favorite picture - I am in love with this little expression :)
