Isn't he the cutest baby in the whole world?! Ha! Please tell me you've heard moms say stuff like that. Maybe I'm the only one. I may be exaggerating a bit, but not much. It always makes me laugh though because I'm usually left thinking, "Um, no. I'm actually a little busy thinking about how my baby is the cutest baby in the whole world!" And so it goes. According to my calculations, there are approximately 1.5 bazillion cutest babies in the whole world. Just as it should be. :)
So now for some info about my cutest baby in the whole world at 3 months....
So now for some info about my cutest baby in the whole world at 3 months....
He is so huge and roly-poly. 15 lbs. to be exact. It makes me laugh. My skim milk that I produced for the girls has apparently turned to whole milk this go around. He's already fitting quite comfortably in many of his 6-9 month clothes. Because of his size, his sleeping in his bouncer days are over. He pushes himself right out. Congratulations, Everett, on being the first of your siblings to be sleeping in the crib.
Speaking of sleep....he pretty much stinks at it right now. I think he's decided that he's two weeks old again and needs to wake up every 3 hours at night. I am one exhausted momma. We're in the midst of trying to figure this out. Crying it out, unswaddling instead, blah blah blah. Ummm...did I mention that I'm tired? In the end, I think he still really loves to be swaddled. He's just so big that he keeps breaking out of the velcro ones and waking himself up. I just ordered a Woombie the other day and am eagerly awaiting it in the mail. Has anybody used one of those? I'm hoping it helps!

Despite his sleep issues he is SUCH a good-natured baby. If he's fed and changed, he's pretty content to just lie in the middle of the floor and look around. He smiles very easily and puts up with a lot from his sisters. Last night while I was changing his diaper I looked up at his face to see him gazing at me with a huge smile.
He's rolled over several times now although I've yet to see it. It's always for Tom or the girls. He's a determined little man though as he spends much of his awake time trying to do it.
He hasn't yet picked a finger to suck on. He prefers his entire fist!!
Alright Everett, you win. We'll show the "3 Months" this way.

He really is so dang cute!!! I love that picture of him with the shirt next to him. I'm soooo sorry that you arent getting any sleep. That is so miserable. We used "the Miracle blanket" and it works so well for swaddling. You can buy it online. Cole just barely stopped using it last week! I finally had to ween him because I was worried about him sleeping in it. I hope the woombie works, though. Cole was not a fan but I know tons of people love them! I'll be sending good sleep vibes your way!
oh man he really is just about the cutest baby in the world.... almost. I can't believe how much bigger he is than last time I saw him. We'll go through our sleep battles together only you'll be out of it 3 months sooner! Just remember it can't last forever. They figure it out eventually. It's just trying to survive until they do.
He is so cute! Hearing how big he is after your girls were small gives me hope. I always tell people I produce skim milk as well. In fact, when we weighed Makenna at 11 months she was just over 13 pounds. I really love the onesies you use to display his age. Do you have them made close to his month marker so it is the right size or is that a 3 month onesie? Good luck with getting more sleep.
I totally testify that "The Miracle Blanket" truly is. It didn't come out until my last one, but she LOVED it. She stayed swaddled really well. You can even change them w/out unswaddling. You get them on eBay. (They resell really well too). I love the chubby ones! I only had one that was chubby and that was Sarah who is too skinny now for a 4 Slim at age 6.
I'm glad you're getting to enjoy a baby with rolls since you love that so much. Too funny that he's outgrown his bouncer seat already. I'm eagerly awaiting the update on the sleep factor my friend. Hang in there.
Yes he IS the most gorgeous baby in the world. For Shizzle.
He really is super cute Rachel. Love the little peanut shirt. :) 3 months is about when Calvin's life started flying by for me. Just a heads up. :)
Funny, I almost bought you a woombie instead of the clothes. Just sayin'. However, I'm VERY glad I didn't now that I hear it didn't work for you. They have all sorts of awesome gadgets now. It just blows me away!
