3 Months Old!

I am behind on this post, but Gibson turned 3 months old on Tuesday! I know I sound like a broken record, but seriously, the time is flying by! He's a quarter of the way to one:-). He's overall a really happy baby. He's making all sorts of new noises and loves smiling back at you especially when you make silly sounds:-). He loves just chillin' in his bouncy seat, however, at least a few times a week he hits a really crabby time of time where it's hard to settle him down. Thankfully that only last 30 minutes to an hour. His reflux issues have gotten a lot better in the past couple of weeks. He's been on Prevacid I think about a month, so I'm not really sure if it's the Prevacid that made his tummy issues better or if he's just growing out it. He's about out of pills so I guess we'll find out if that's what is helping! I weighed him on our scale this week and he was about 12 pounds. He goes back into the doctor in a month. His eating schedule now (just as of this week he's made it a little longer at night) is (give or take a little) 8:30/9am, 11:30am, 4:30pm, 8:30pm, 5am. For what seemed like a long time (probably like at least a few weeks) had been 3am instead of 5, so hopefully he keeps with the 5 and then keeps extending that time out! He seems to do best when he last eats around 8/8:30 rather than eating any later--he's up earlier or the same time if he eats later than that. Just recently he started drinking 5-6 oz at a feeding (was more like 4 1/2-5). He's about outgrowing his size 1 diapers so I'll switch him to 2s once he finishes this box which is funny because Layla is in 3s:-). He's such a sweet little (big) guy and we love him so much!! It's so cute to see how Layla loves her little brother and I can't wait to see him reciprocate the feelings as he gets older.

Just chillin' in a onesie and pants the other week as he got hot in the shirt he had on...

Happy boy...

Wearing his cute Gibson shirt from his buddy Mackenzie...

His hair is growing longer, but mainly just on the top of his head. After a bath it looks like he has a mohawk:-).

3 Month pics...of course sissy isn't too far away!

"G is for Good Boy"...and Gibson:-)...

Turning 3 months is hard work!

Friday night we went out for dinner for my (belated) birthday to On the Border with my family. Both kids looked cute wearing shorts for the first time this season so I thought I'd take a quick pic before we left. Layla's shorts or from last summer and they fit her better this summer (6-12), Gibson currently wears 0-3 pants so soon they'll only be one size different! Actually the other day I put a white onesie on Layla and thought to myself, I really need to get rid of these 9 month onesies, this one is really stretching to fit. Then I realized it was one of Gibs' 3 month ones! No wonder it was too short! :-)

Chillin' before leaving for dinner...

I can't believe how big he looks already - what a blessing he is such a growing boy! He looks so much like Layla but at the same time he looks very different...probably because he is a boy:) Love all the pictures!
