Our family has been sick all weekend and I just now realized that Noah is 3 months old today! I’ll have to take his 3 month pictures tomorrow since he’s already in bed but here is an update.
Weight: 18lbs (approx)
Clothing Size: 6mo+
Disposable Diaper Size: 3 (we use sposies at night)
New Skills:
Rolls from Back to Tummy
Rolls from Tummy to Back
Working Ab muscles with daily crunches
Can “sit-up” on his own for about 5 secs
Excellent neck control
Learning to use hands
Kicks to bounce his bouncy seat hence rocking himself to sleep. (AWESOME!!!)
Sleep:
Noah still sleeps in the bed with us. He goes to bed around 7:30 – 8pm each night. Wakes around 12, 3 and 6am to eat. Usually wakes for the day around 8am. (Since he sleeps in the bed with us I barely wake when I feed him so I’m not 100% certain of these times.)
Nap times are becoming more defined. Usually a short morning nap from about 10-11:30am then a longer afternoon nap from around 2:30/3pm till 5ish. Sometimes there are just a few shorter naps and other times it’s one big long nap. (I prefer the big long naps)
Eating:
Noah is a happy baby when he’s well fed and has a clean diaper. Without really thinking about it we got him on the Eat, Play, Sleep schedule which is pretty nice. Jude was an Eat, Play, Eat, Sleep kind of baby. Noah is also a very efficient nurser. He only nurses one side per feeding for about 10-15 min. Jude was a both sides for about 20 min each kind of baby. Noah also doesn’t like to nurse when he isn’t hungry. And doesn’t want the paci a lot either. If he takes the paci it’s when he sleeps.
Life with Noah:
He likes to cuddle a LOT! And since I don’t think you can spoil a baby I usually cuddle him as much as I can. He spends a lot of time in the Boba carrier when we are at home and he often falls asleep there.
He likes to spend time in his bouncy seat and on his play mat. He also enjoys watching Jude, from a distance. You can tell he gets a little nervous when Jude gets too close because he’s already experienced a few accidental falling on or flailing limb incidents.
Ok, that’s about all for now. 3 Month pictures tomorrow but for now enjoy these:

Raleigh is home to some of the most amazing designers and artists. I am constantly amazed at all of the creativity that flows from this city. Ahpeele is one such example. Ahpeele offers handscreened art tees for men and women, hoodies and art prints. I thought it fitting to feature Ahpeele’s Raleigh t-shirt as a…
I’ve been putting off giving Noah his first haircut for a while. I considered letting it grow out, but I just don’t have that kind of patience, plus he seemed annoyed by his long hair. When Wahl sent us their new Lithium Ion Clipper set, I took it as a sign to just give him…

One of my favorite baby pictures of Jude is of his first bath (or one of the firsts). Jude – 2008 So I wanted some cute pictures of Noah and his first bath. We put it off for about 2.5 weeks but he’s finally clean and here are some cute pictures. Noah – 2011 PinShare
Noah is 2 months old! I really can’t believe how quickly he is growing. I’m already packing up clothes and cloth diapers that are too small. Seriously kid, slow down! At his check up on Monday his stats were: 16 lbs 24 in – long and 100% healthy I just went through all the 6…
OK, so before Noah was born I did a review of the Svan Bouncer. I just knew I would love this thing and now that Noah is here I can truly say it’s a big hit. No seriously, it’s his favorite place to hang out. If you don’t believe me look at the pictures. Pictures…
