Watch Me Grow: 3 Months

Well, you're three months old and officially a daycare baby.

It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. Handing you over to somebody else and walking away...leaving. It was horrific. It was heart wrenching. And it was just like everyone said it would be.

I thought about you all day, and even snuck out of work early to pick you up. I couldn't wait to snuggle you in my arms.

We aren't quite through our first week, but I know it will get easier. Eventually. Baby steps.

Your Daddy is away right now working in Canada. He just left Monday, so we both are adjusting to this new change. I don't know how I'm managing taking care of you all by myself (you are a lot of work sweet thang), but somehow I'm managing.

You were baptized earlier this month at Sacred Heart and for the most part, you did great. You were a major fuss pot towards the end and cried in all our photos. Whatever it takes for you to become a child of God.

We are both pros at feeding in public now. I just take you anywhere and everywhere and use breastfeeding as a convenience. We've fed in numerous dressing rooms, in the bathroom at some restaurants and even at Ky's wrestling tournament! You have a way of making everything an adventure!

The weather in Kansas City right now is unheard of. We are taking a ton of walks and you just love being in your stroller and up at me.

Big boy, your smile is the most precious thing in the whole world. Can you please keep those up? It just makes everything else in this world seem so distant.

I do everything in my power to get a smile out of you. Silly noises? Yep. Funny faces? Yep. I'll do anything. ANYTHING to see you smile. You just melt my heart.

Carson at 3 months:

In the Closet: 0-3 Months and 3-6 months, depends on the size

Diapers: Size 1

Grub: Exclusive breast milk

Sleep: You are such an angel child. Sleeping 7-8 hrs

New Activity/Development: You just started going to daycare a week ago, and I can already see a difference in your activity level and strength. You're starting to actually tolerate tummy time and getting better at holding up your head. You are SO tired when we get home. And...you just rolled from your tummy to your back!

Loves: Being happy, peek-a-boo, mirror time, staring at the fans and lights, the paci.

Hates: Napping (naps a lot in the swing) and tummy time.
