I Love You to the Moon and Back: 12 Weeks

Sweet William, you are 12 weeks today. I can't believe it! I think I say that every week, but it's true. The time spent with you as an infant is going by so quickly.

Your personality is beginning to show. You wake up every morning with a huge smile on your face ready to start your day. You smile constantly and make friends everywhere you go...especially at the grocery store.

You are getting more used to tummy time, but you still do not enjoy it. You like your swing and I think that's because you are upright. You love to be upright looking around at everything.

You are more alert and aware of the tiny voices around you. Your cousins came to visit last weekend and you were constantly looking for them when you heard their voices. In fact, you got upset when you could hear them, but were not in the same room as them so you could watch them.

You are getting stronger in holding your head up and soon you will be sitting in your Bumpo.

You love, love, love bath time.

You are officially into 3-6 month clothing.

You started sleeping in your crib at night time and so far you are doing excellent. The past two nights you have slept 7 hours straight.

You continue to nestle your nose into the crevasse of my elbow when you are tired.

You eat all the time. All. The. Time!

You have officially found your right fist and suck on it constantly.

You've started grabbing things and holding onto them, especially your tag blanket and mommy and daddy's clothing.

You love to snuggle and I take in all the snuggles I can get.

You weight about 14 pounds and are long. Very long. Your feet are huge.

We've had some trying times and tiring days, but we are getting through them. I think this is because you are growing and want to eat all the time.

Everyone loves you. They love you a lot.

Let's hope your sleeping patterns continue. Mommy and daddy enjoy 7 straight hours of sleep.

I love you baby boy,
Mommy
