Jed is 3 Months!

okay, so my pics are out of whack and I'm too tired to take the time to make it pretty.. so just figure it out.. thanks.

Well.. he turned three months on the 7th.  He is getting so big!  He is now 25 inches long (90th percentile) and 13.4 lbs. (50th percentile).

He is a very happy and content baby.  So loving and sweet and smiles all the time!  Seeing him smile at me fills me with so much joy I really cannot express.  He wakes up happy, even if he's woken up too early and he's happy really anytime during the day.   For some reason, he smiles every time I change his diaper.. and I mean every time!  He looks at me and gives me this bashful smile and starts to giggle.. He's been doing this as soon as he could smile.  He has never ever cried during a diaper change.. even as a newborn.

This is hard to believe but he never cries.. he's such a good baby I feel so blessed and lucky to be his Mom!!  He has cried since he was born literally a handful of times and only because he was hungry in the back seat and I couldn't get to him in time.  He didn't even cry during his circumcision!  The doctor couldn't believe it.

His favorite things are to get his diaper changed, smile, giggle and play with his brother...  He loves his big brother, Joey!! read books, stand and sit up as much as he can on his own and for as long as he can - He's so proud and feels like he's such a big boy, you can see on his face- he has ideas!  He's gonna do something!  haha.  He is so strong and stands up so well... He holds his head up like a pro and has been for a long time.  When he was two days old he tried so hard to hold up his head, and kept trying and trying until he became more and more steady.  So determined.  He loves to smile at strangers and loves to talk!  Boy, he is a talker.. he can just talk for hours... about this and about that.. such a good conversationalist.  As long as you're talking to him, he'll talk!  So cute.

He is already teething!  crazy....  he just gnaws on everything, especially his fist.  Sometimes I think he's hungry, but no, he just wants to suck.  Drools and drool caughs all the time.. but it's so cute.

Some things he's beginning to do is laugh - he's trying real hard to laugh.  He's more at a giggle but really close.  I can't wait to hear that full blown laugh!  Also, he is getting real good focusing on something and reaching for it and grabbing it.  He tries real hard and is now getting it.  What is kinda funny is that he's not too good at holding onto a rattle and shaking it for very long, which is what is normal for his age - but he is reaching for something and is able to grab it, which is actually quite advanced (they usually make sweeping motions at the objects trying to get them at this point).  

I love my little guy.. I feel like the luckiest mom in the world :))
