maxson's 3 {months}!

as much as i so very much loved snuggling my newborn baby and will miss it much,

he's getting bigger and it too is so fun!

he's smiling and talking/yelling back at us so much, it's so funny to listen to.

and we officially have a roller!

it's that next exciting milestone we saw coming.

for the last month he's loved hanging out on his side while sucking on that hand.

then on saturday as i was trying to set up the camera on the floor to get pictures of him on his tummy,

i went to go get him and he was nearly all the way turned toward his tummy!
i cheered him on as an over ecstatic first time momma knowing he was fully "turned" once he was crying and couldn't get back.
since then, whenever we put him on his back on the ground, we'll look over and low and behold his on his tummy.
he gets his hand out from under him half the time right now and the other half just cries in frustration :)
onto some of his 3 month newsies/funsies:

-he's scooting circles on his back.
i lay him down and 10 minutes later he's still on the blanket but has done a 180 with all those side rolls!
-bumbo=awesomeness. that and the moby are his favorite places
-he's not fully on laughing/giggling yet, but we'll often get a few chuckles out of him.

"nom nom nom"

"what you looking at? i'm awesome on my tummy!"

but of course, tummy time inevitably turns into this...
he's crying/complaining while sucking on his hand

-he's still always wanting to stand on your legs or the floor or where ever he gets the chance.
arms in airplane mode, naturally.
-ove the past weeks we've figured out routines for his 4 naps (sleeps best in his carseat...there could be worse places, and is guaranteed to wake up after 45 minutes for crib naps and not go back to sleep, ooy, i will continue to fight!) and how to sleep awesome at night: 7 hours then 3 hours. it's been vundervul.
-we've changed to the secret swaddle at night and crib naps (because he escapes even my beloved swaddleme!) and sometimes let out an arm during day naps to see if he's getting better with arm control.

-his newest trick other than rolling: balancing on those 2 feetsies on my hand!
i'm sure that by next month i won't be supporting him.
-he loves facetiming. whenever we do he's so entranced by watching whomever is on the screen.granted it's like tv and that's probably why...
but it's not tv so we will continue.

taking photos=tired daddy
actually constant studying=tired daddy
