3 months old already!

We cannot believe we are already at month 3 of Bradleigh's first year!!! Time is going by so fast, but we are taking each day in at a time and enjoying every little moment of new milestones our son reaches. It is simply amazing to watch him grow into a little boy from a newborn.

Here are some of the latest updates in the past month. He is discovering so many new things in the world around him and it is SO much fun to watch... :)

• He is now sleeping 8 hours through the night! YAHOO! So much better than the 4-5 we were getting for the first month or so. :)
• He can see a few feet further than before and has gotten pretty good with turning his head from side to side, or towards a noise.
• He has discovered his fist/fingers and he has them constantly in his mouth, sucking away and drooling ALL over...
• He has developed quite the little laugh (not the belly laugh... yet!) and it is the cutest thing ever! He LOVES to laugh when Daddy makes silly noises or faces and when Mommy sings to him!!! :) He really enjoys noises and singing!!
• Bath time has become one of his favorite times of the day (aside from eating of course, haha). He has always really enjoyed bath time, but now that he has figured out he can splash with his feet and get water all over mommy & the floor - it is SO MUCH FUN! haha!

We have been trying to keep up with documenting all of his new developments and tricks...but it's sometimes overwhelming! Especially since he is learning and doing MANY new things at once.

This last week, we started giving him a couple ounces of formula (Gentlease - with broken down milk proteins) after nursing, because he was acting as if he wasn't getting enough to eat AND we wanted to see if it would help with his spitting up/tummy issues. Luckily, we only had a short period where he wasn't taking the bottle, but that didn't last long. He seems to be liking the formula too! Thank goodness :) He is one hungry boy and growing SO fast....

 All about fingers in the mouth! :)

 Looking cute....as always!

Bradleigh is more alert and aware of the dogs now... and of course they are interested in him, too! Bradleigh likes to watch them play and listen to them bark. Cabela is more intrigued by Little B than Maverick. She always likes to check him out and of course, clean up his spit-up and drool! hahaha!

All bundled in my swing...

...and Cabela came to visit (and clean up my face) :)

It is still prrrretty chilly outside, but we have had a few nice days (in the 60's/70's) here and there. I try to get out and walk with Bradleigh any chance we can get. Not only is it nice to get out of the house for a bit...but it is making me excited for this Sprng/Summer when Bradleigh will be a little bigger and able to do more outside. He wasn't crazy about walking at first...but he is taking a liking to it the more I take him out! Besides....he will learn to like it, cause Momma needs to get active to work off these lingering preggo pounds! ;)

Heading out for a walk on this beautiful February day...

Happy boy!

We are looking forward to this month and all the new milestones Bradleigh will make! We will also be going on his first vacation here in a couple weeks and we are really looking forward to it. Until next time...
