Month 3

Jackson,

Month 3 has been a big one for you! You continue to amaze us every day, and we are so lucky to have you in our lives- we just can’t imagine it any other way.

This month you’ve been smiling- you especially love when your dad makes silly faces and voices. I get smiles when you first wake up in the morning (assuming I get to you before you get impatient and cry). Speaking of- you are sleeping through the night now! You go to bed at 9pm, and usually wake up around 6am… although some days that varies, and we get the occasional 4:45am wake up call. I’m not complaining though- this is a FAR cry from the every 2 hours we were doing not long ago. The whole family is better rested, and now mornings are your favorite!

You still love bath time, so we started to give you a bath every night. I think the warm water relaxes you, and it’s become a family affair.

You’re now focusing on everything, fans, mobiles, our hands and faces, toys, etc. It’s so much fun to see you taking the world in. Everything is new to you, and you’re happy just looking around!

Grandpa Stubbs taught you how to stand (with our help of course), and that seems to be your favorite position right now. I think it’s because you can see what’s going on around you.

We’ve realized we can get more done, and you’re happy just hanging out, as long as you can see us. We put you in your little swing on the kitchen floor and you happily sit and watch us cook dinner!

Happy 3 month little man!
