3 Months!

It's hard to believe, but this little bug is 3 months old. My how time flies! I seriously love dressing him up in outfits like this. They make him look so grown up. He has been smiling and giggling a lot the past few weeks. That smile just makes my whole day!He's really good at making pouty faces. He's kind of upset that opening day isn't here YET! We're ready to cheer on the Yankees! He's been pretty good about trying to roll over and strengthen that bobble-head. Here is he practicing his tummy time...he is able to lift his head much higher and is much more steady now as compared to when this photo was taken at the beginning of the month. It won't be too long before he will be able to use the bebepod seat Jed's aunt bought us(him).
He likes hanging out with big brother...even if William is still a little nervous about "breaking" the baby.
He LOVES his bath time as long as it is a nice hot bath. It took us a while to figure out that he likes it HOT...once we got the right temperature the bath time screaming stopped. Getting out and getting dried off and dressed, not so much. This is a rare shot of him being calm after bath time.
Look! I'm dressed just like my daddy in my flannel lined jeans and plaid shirt.

We've had a lot of fun growing with Baden this month. He is reaching a lot of milestones, some earlier than he should be for 3 months. He has figured out what his hand is and I guess it tastes pretty good, because it is in his mouth a good portion of the day. Along with eating his hand, he has started to drool, A LOT! We had pretty much stopped using burp rags, but they are now part of our daily wardrobe. He is getting stronger by the day. Baden is able to stand up on his legs with help of course. He can hold his head up at a 90 degree angle when on the floor and is able to push himself up so he can see what's going on around him. He loves to prop that little head up off of your shoulder so he can see everything that is going on . His smiles are so heartwarming and he gives them very freely. What a smiley baby he is. He is also starting to giggle but it is a funny little giggle that sounds more like a cough than anything. He loves it when we sing to him. Usually the words are made up and we make absolutely no sense, but he loves it. Especially when we use his arms and legs as props and move them along with the tune. He has been sleeping through the night for the last two weeks. What a blessing that is. I know we have been super blessed that he only got up once a night since the beginning, but having the whole night to sleep now is even better. He loves to talk and is constantly cooing and making his presence known. We love this little guy and can't wait to see what the next month brings.

What a sweet boy! I can't believe how fast he has grown. The first year is amazing. They change so, so much. Lors, do YOU really make up the words to the songs? It simply can not be true. :)
