Dean at 3 months!

This is about a week overdue but I wanted to do a short post about Dean! He turned 3 months old last Wednesday. Some of these are just silly random facts mostly for me to read later on. :) (In case you care to compare, you can click here to read about Brennen at 3 months).
  • He weighs just over 14 pounds!
  • He wears size 2 diapers already.
  • We swaddle him to sleep at night but he's always busted out by the time he wakes up in the night. Not sure why we do it...
  • He is not sleeping through the night. I can't keep him awake much past 9 then he usually wakes up between 2:00-3:30 every night and then is up for good before 7. But he goes right back to sleep after I feed him in the night and sleeps a lot during the day (naps are still irregular).
  • He is a very good eater. He is only breastfed and eats like a champ. He gets right down to business and I've never, ever, had to spend more than a half hour feeding him and it usually takes less time than that.
  • He is trying with all his might to roll from back to belly. He did it once but it was on the couch so it was probably a bit easier. :)
  • He can hold onto toys for quite a long time and actually tries to shake them. He also sucks (and gags on) his hands all the time and like to eat toys, too.
  • He loves Brennen! He can be upset (on rare occasions) and if Brennen comes over to talk to him or hug him he calms down and smiles. It's pretty cute. :)
  • He continues to be a really happy, low-maintenance baby! He smiles pretty much all the time when he's awake and it's easy to make him giggle.
Here are a couple random pictures of Dean at 3 months.
Happy after a bath.

Chillin' on the couch (he fell asleep like that all on his own).

Laying on the couch with his big brother.

I thought this was cute. :) Dean touching Brennen's foot.

Oh man! He is an awesome baby. Lydia acts worse than a newborn. She just NEVER sleeps! I find myself jealous of your easy baby. I love him and you guys!
