Carter is now 3 months old! Time is flying and I don't like it! :)

| 3 months old today! |
 |
| Mid-sentence :) |
 |
| Evening snuggles! |
He is really discovering his hands and starting to try to grab onto things. He HATES tummy time!
He
is starting to finally take a binky which we only use when he is fussy
and wants to suck. It works sometimes but he still spits it out a lot.
We don't use it at bedtime.
 |
| This is what happens when you have a big sister who thinks you are her doll! |
 |
| Loves sitting up and watching Leah play. He thinks she is hilarious! |
 |
| Leah is SO good with him. She brings him toys and turns on the music on his bouncy chair if he is fussy. Seriously so sweet and I am so proud of her. |
 |
| I can't get enough of his snuggles!!!! |
Carter is getting more and more fun! He is awake a lot these days. He has started laughing which is the cutest sound ever! He is so smiley and happy (most of the time!). He is a great sleeper now. He usually takes a nap when Leah goes to bed around 8pm and then is awake from about 9:30 until we go to bed at 10:30-11. Then between that time and 7-8am he most nights only wakes up once! I think he needs to start going to sleep earlier. He takes little cat naps during the day. He doesn't like to nap in the co-sleeper though. Daytime naps are either in the car or while I am holding him. It is very sweet to snuggle him but makes it hard to get things done while Leah is napping.
Carter is still exclusively breastfed. He has not had one drop of formula which makes me feel so confident and proud of myself as a mom. I don't think there is anything wrong with formula, with Leah we had to supplement from day 1 since she was not gaining weight fast enough. I don't know if I have a better supply this time or if I am just more dedicated. I have only pumped and given him bottles 3 times (I hate pumping). He took the bottle ok by the third try :) I have only been away from Carter for probably an hour total since he has been born and that was 3 different quick trips to the store! I really don't feel like I need a break from him at all. Now that I have 2 kids, when I have just 1 at a time it feels like a vacation :)

| First big boy outfit! |
The days definitely go by faster these days! I am trying to not get caught up with everyday stress and to enjoy this time with my babies since I know it will fly by too fast!
LOVE LOVE LOVE
