3 months and 2 weeks old!

Doesnt this look just make you melt? I have a feeling I am going to see this face again and again!

Owen is now 14 weeks old!!!

I think one of Owen's biggest milestones has been his ability to sleep, like his momma! At 7 days he was sleeping 8 hours through the night... at 9 weeks he started sleeping 10 hours solid through the night with an inconsistent 12 hour night here and there... and by 12 weeks the little man is consistently sleeping 12 hours 6:30-6:30 if he can stay in his swaddle all night- right now he is somehow getting his right arm out of the swaddle and when he does, he bops himself in the face and wakes up...until we re-do his swaddle and plug him with a pacifier.. oh Owen! He is on a pretty good nap schedule that was pretty easy to put him on, I just started swaddling him and putting him in his crib at the same time each day and he sleeps for at least an hour each segment, sometimes more and sometimes less.. but on average about an hour, 3 times a day and more when we are running errands and driving around.

So, tonight I am going to try the miracle swaddle- lets see how much of a miracle it is.

He is eating 8oz every 4 hours!

Owen is talking and saying lots of "mmms' "ooohs" "uuuuws" and is starting to grab things with a little bit more control. He lays on his belly and holds him self up with his arms and is very strong. He will stand for long periods when you hold him upright and he is starting to drool much more now... makes me wonder if that means those teeth are starting to make their way up- we shall see!

Next weekend we are flying to Bermuda, so it will be Owen's first international trip! I have his passport- its hilarious to see a picture of a baby on a passport! We can't wait to visit our friends the Konte's! The last time we saw them was at our wedding- they have to be one of the most amazing, fun and super cool families we know! If Owen was crawling and walking, I know he would be right at Michael and Trevor's heels.

We have a couple weeks until our next doctor appointment, and I am so excited to see how big this little munchkin is! I am guessing he is at 15lbs right now (because 2.5 weeks ago he weighed 13lbs) and 25 inches long.



Owen,

Your daddy and I are so lucky to have you. You have changed our life for the very best and we love you more than anything in the world. I can not believe how much you have grown the last few months- you continue to amaze us in all that you do.
