Archer is now officially 3 months old, though he turned 12 weeks last Friday. Odd how that works. Anyway we have finally seen our new pediatrician, and I'm hoping this will be a better fit for our needs. Here are a few stats on our little man!
14lbs 13oz and 24 1/4 inches long. He's my little chunk!
Smiles and cooes all the time now, and it just melts my heart!
Has started to laugh (an advanced milestone I understand) but only in the bath tub.
Head control is getting much better, he can hold it up for a minute or so before getting wobbly.
Loves his swing, bouncer seat, jungle mat, Christmas lights... not super big on snuggling excet at night.
He enjoys smiling and cooeing at mommy and is starting to find his hands and watch them with his eyes. He sucks on his hands a lot, he just hasn't really noticed them until now.
He likes his sleep and will nap 3-4 hours in his crib if we let him, but his night time sleep is still up in
the air. Lately he's been going a few days of waking every 3 hours then a few days of sleeping a full 6 hour stretch before waking. I never know what's coming!
Hates being swaddled but will allow me to put him in the Halo sleep sack for his naps. I'm convinced if we were to put him in his crib at night in that thing he'd sleep 8 hours. I'm not really ready for that yet...
We are switching him from a size 2 to size 3 diaper and he is in size 3-6 month clothes!
Hates tummy time on the floor but will tolerate it modified on mommy. He also hates being in his car seat when the car is stopped. He has screamed himself hoarse on several occasions.
I think that's it! I'm still very much in love with my little man and I am so enjoying learning everything about him and watching him grow!
Countdown to baby!

11 weeks...
My how time flies. My baby boy is now 11 going on 12 weeks this Friday. He is gaining more head control, smiling daily and just today had his first real laugh! I was giving him a bath and pouring water on his chest and belly to keep him warm. Well something about my smile/tone and the water must have struck him funny because he let out several of the most adorable baby giggles! I'm so in love with this little guy!
He's been sleeping a bit better at night now, he went about 5 hours from wake up to me waking him up (he had been fussing off and on and I was going to try to dream feed) and the sleep is so so needed. His naps are still hit or miss, but right now he's been down for about 2 hours and we all needed that break.
We are in the process of changing pediatricians so I don't know his length or weight yet. We will find out on Thursday when we meet the new Dr. Our old one was a vaccine pusher and while we do vaccinate, it's a delayed schedule. Well she didn't like that much and kept hounding me, to the point she flat out told me she would be guilt tripping me every visit. Not something I want to hear from someone who's supposed to be helping us.
