3 Months

 

 

Stats:  Going to the store tomorrow to buy a scale.  26 inches long.  At this rate, Cody’s going to be taller than his mommy when he goes to Kindergarten!

What He’s Wearing:  We’ve been slowing integrating the 3 – 6 month clothes into the wardrobe, and the pile of outgrown 0 – 3s is growing almost as fast as he is!  Can’t wait to find out what Baby Barrett is going to be so that we can box up the clothes for him or give them to good will if it’s a her!  Size 1-2 diapers are kind of a joke, but we are finishing them up because we bought in bulk at Sam’s!  I have 2s at the ready for as soon as the last 1-2 is gone!

Firsts- starting to “talk” and coo.  I think he definitely recognizes familiar faces.  Cody had his first day of “school” at Mardie’s house on August 10 when mommy went to orientation.  He is just as easy for her as he is for Mommy and Daddy!  I think Karaline is glad to have her brother there, too.

From Head To Toe- brownish hair, improving complexion, if it weren’t for those pesky fingernails causing the occasional scratch, it would be perfect!  Cody has his daddy’s dreamy blue eyes.  He is doing a good job of holding his head up and likes to be “up”.

Loves- pretty much everything!  Swing, car rides, bath, gym, Kid Zone, church, and “watching” Mickey Mouse with Sister.

Dislikes- being hungry

Eating- 6 - 8 oz every 4 hours.  He tends to forget to eat during the day if he is in the middle of a good nap and then really stores up the groceries for overnight sleep.  It seems like he eats constantly from about 6 – 8 p.m.  I’m not complaining because this gives us some good quality time together. 

Sleeping- Cody is a good little sleeper.  He’s been taking a huge afternoon nap at Mardie’s, being awake during the evening so he can spend time with his Mommy and Daddy after work, and then snoozing again by about 9 or 9:30.  He is sleeping through the night until about 6:45 or 7 a.m. which is about perfect for school days. 

Misc. Facts – Cody & Karaline had their “Favorite Face” pictures taken at Trey Allen’s this month.  I can’t wait to pick ‘em up on the 26th!  Sunday will be our first family pics as a family of 4!
