3 months

Lately I've picked most of my blogs that center around the newest member of the family. That is not to say that the rest of us aren't just as busy, but I figure the 3rd child usually ends up with the leftovers when it comes to attention, so I'm making up for that up front!



Isaac at 3 months: Sleeps 7-9 hours a night. If you had told me that I would have a child that slept, I would have laughed at you. There is absolutely nothing I have done to get him to sleep longer - which goes to show that for all you first time parents out there, sleeping is not something I have been able to control. He sleeps in his swaddle blanket in the bouncy seat in his room.
Eats all the time during the day. Is finally taking a bottle well, and I've been able to leave him easily as I started back at work on every other Saturday morning. He loves to play with his hands. He grabs them in front of his face with such attention and purpose! He slowly brings them to his mouth and begins gnawing furiously! He's grabbing at toys now with greater intent. He's becoming much more aware of the world around him!
His hair is all falling out. Anticipate a picture soon of a newly shaved head! We did with Andrew as well. As much as people have criticized me for that, he desperately needs a trim. Its just way too long and way too patchy to leave it.
He's able to entertain himself for longer periods of time, but still LOVES to be held and attended too. He can make himself known if he feels neglected!

Love this boy! He is such a joy and our family is that much closer to feeling complete. The jury's still out on whether or not it is :)
