Ben is 3 Months Old!

IMG_5713

Wow!  Where is the time going?  Ben was 3 months old on Monday.  Here is a few things going on with Ben these days…

  • He has the best smile!  It truly melts my heart! 
  • He squeals and his laugh is a little chuckle.  
  • He likes to smile at his toys.
  • Ben loves to stand up.  When sitting, he can actually push himself up.
  • He loves the car and her car seat...always puts him to sleep.
  • He is a great eater…we are still nursing.
  • He has spotted his hands.  He likes to look at them and is starting to be able to grab things.
  • His sleeping is still on and off.  He generally goes to bed around 9.  He usually wakes up at 3 to eat and back to sleep till about 7.  Every once in awhile he will get up twice to eat.  He can not be awake for more than 2 hours at a time during the day. 
  • To let us know he is ready for sleep, his eyes get red.  He starts to rub them and yawns. 
  • His eyes are still bright blue.
  • His hair is starting to fall out.
  • He has started drooling.
  • He is very ticklish.
  • He LOVES his playmat.  The swing always puts him to sleep.  And he enjoys kicking in his bouncy seat.
  • He is very laid back.  He sleeps a lot.  Usually the only time he fusses is when he is hungry, dirty, tired or needs to burp.
  • The grunting has stopped (thank goodness). 
  • Like his sister, he likes to bury his head to fall asleep.
