3 Months Already?

I cannot believe that the babies are 3 months old today! It is strange how time can seem to go both so fast and so slow at times...I think now that work is right around the corner it really is going fast. Uh...I dread it...big time.

Anyway...no doctor appt this month (so no stats), but Parker and Caroline have made some great strides in the past month. The big one is that (knock on wood somewhere please) they are "sleeping through the night"! We (and by "we" I mean babies and parents) have been getting at least 6 solid hours of sleep at night. The babies get more most of the time...usually around 8 hours. It makes such a difference!

Caroline~
  • Rolled over (officially as witnessed by Mommy and Daddy) from back to tummy yesterday. She has done it before, but was never able to get her arm out from underneath.
  • Loves to turn to her side to sleep. We always put her down on her back but we often find her on her side...sucking the tasty ol' thumb.
  • Prefers sucking one (or more) of her digits than her paci. Her favorite combo is the middle and ring finger together.
  • Smiles (almost) all of the time...especially at her daddy.
  • Loves bath time.
  • Still doesn't have much hair in the front...maybe one day.
  • Has just about outgrown all NB clothes...most all of her clothes are 0-3.

Parker~

  • Is completely content to be held...all of the time...especially by momma.
  • Could care less about rolling over...but has a pretty good "spin" move. We have often found him in his crib turned a completely different direction than how we laid him down.
  • Is still the "Spit-Up King"...which has led to Nick sleep-talking asking me "Where are all of the bibs?"
  • Smiles and talks to us...very close to laughing.
  • Likes to imitate you when you stick out your tongue...and has "accidentally on purpose" razzed at me a few times.
  • Loves bath time.
  • Is growing more and more hair...so cute!
  • Wearing 0-3/3-6 month clothes...getting so big!

Here are a few recent pics of them. A friend of a friend is trying to get into the baby photography business and Parker and Caroline are her models! It is next to impossible to get them to both smile/cooperate in every shot. But we still got some cute ones!

Happy 3 Month Birthday Babies!

So, cute! Speaking of "spit-up king" Isaac literally spit up an entire 7 oz bottle on me this morning!

I didn't realize our babies are exactly a month apart! Your babies are adorable!!! Our little man does the same thing by spinning around in his crib! Love the pics!!

Those are some precious pictures, and I'm so glad things are going well for you guys! We still need to come meet Caroline and Parker, once my crazy work summer dies down I'll email so we can come invade your house for a bit. You'd love that, right? ;-)
