3 months already!

Four days before his 3 month mark Jay slept thru the night (8pm-5:30am) for the very first time!!!  He seems to go on his long sleeping stints when Loren is out of town.  I think Jay senses it and just wants to sleep and sleep so his dad will get home faster :)  So I was very reluctant to actually tell anyone because you know how it goes, as soon as you say something it changes. Well, I was wrong, he has slept from 8pm - 5am for over a week now (with the exception of last nite) so now we are all getting sleep FINALLY!!! 

There really is something to be said about that 12 week mark, a lot has been changing not just his sleep.  Here are some highlights...

He has been working on finding his thumb for about 3 weeks, he finally got it and sucks it a lot!


He is actually awake now when we go places...


He never stops moving in his bassinet when we go for walks at the lake, he's always peeking his little head out the top, he doesn't want to miss a thing...


He is starting to grab for things and put EVERYTHING in his mouth...

He's enjoying tummy time now, playing with his toys and smiles on que for the camera...

We are also now into a pretty well established nap schedule and night time routine.  He naps from about 10:30-11:30am, then 1:30-2:30pm and is asleep for the night by 8pm!
 

Speaking of routines and sleeping, guess who will be moving out of our room (bassinet) and downstairs to his crib this weekend???

nooooooooo!
