My Baby Bird

Jimmy you are getting so big. 3 months old. 14 pounds 12 ounces (80%) & 24 3/4" (80%). I call you my baby bird because you are often just sitting there watching me move across the room opening & closing your mouth sucking on your hand waiting for me to feed you the way a baby bird waits for their mama. You eat 7-9 times a day. You are still having feedings 1-2x a night but you always go back to bed right after. You are so happy now during your awake hours. Smiling. Laughing out loud. Super ticklish especially your neck & thighs. You spend time during the day doing tummy time which you can do for 5 minutes at a time without getting upset, you lay on your playmat pumping your legs & cooing, you watch me cook & eat sitting in your bumbo & you absolutely LOVE to be held while I sing to you. You only like the swing when you are wide awake & sit there yelling at the birdies & you can always be soothed by bouncing you in your vibration chair. You are enamored with your brothers, especially when they talk to you & poke at you. Your hair sticks straight up off your head, you always stick your tongue out & you are constantly trying to sit up. You are growing so fast baby boy & your daddy & I love you so much!
