January is OVER!!!

My baby is already 3 months old! As much as I love the little newborn stage I love the baby stage better. He loves his bouncy seat (which saves me!) and his swing. He is starting to try and grab at toys that you put in front of him. Stock also loves to have someone talk to him. He coos and smiles back at me and I love the connection with him. When he is upset if I give him a bath (we do every night before bed) he calms right down. All my kids have loved the bath. He is started to tolerate his car seat better so he doesn't scream whenever he is in it. I got him to go longer then a hour and half between feedings (with a lot of work!) so he actually seems more content during the day. He wakes up usually twice during the night which is MUCH better then 4 or 5 times like he was doing before. For the first time last night I had him sleep in his own room (I've had him by me since he got up so much) and I think we both slept a lot better. He is still sleeping in his bouncy seat because he has got bad reflux and when I lay him in his crib he spits up every time. I've even got it propped up with a pillow under it. I think I'm going to try and have him nap in it today and see what happens. I just LOVE cuddling with him. He is my cuddle buddy.
He is so heavy! I have to be careful with my back so I don't sprain it again holding him. He loves to be hold facing out so he can see. It's how we both spend most of our day is me holding him.
I didn't realize how weird his face is in this picture until I posted it. He was trying to be silly.
The poor baby gets hugged and loved a little too much by these two. It will be nice when he is old enough to take it.
I'm SO GLAD January is over!!!!!! I always feel like I'm on the down hill of the winter. Now if I wasn't so tired all the time I could get back to loosing this baby weight again. I'm so tired of maternity pants!
