Hi Baby!
Wow, it seems like years ago that you were 3 months old! January 5th, 2011 was 3 months exactly since you came into our lives. Boy did you grow a lot in those three little months!
At Three Months: You are smiling and cooing at your Momma (and everybody else- you are very friendly)! You can hold your head up on your own really well by now and you'll even push a little bit with your legs if we hold you up instanding position. Daddy likes to prop you up on the couch with him so you can watch tv together and you are pretty content with this little routine.
You had your first big snow right here in Alabama! It was probably only about 6 inches or so and you and I were both sick but we tried to make the most of it. Daddy got you all bundled up in your snow suit and we took you outside to enjoy it. You didn't seem too impressed and by the time we started taking pictures you were upset!
You also had your very first experience getting hay for the horse. You were super cute in your blue jeans, boots and flannel shirt...we took some pictures of you and you just smiled and smiled! You are quite a ham!
In Feburary, we took our first big road trip to Snowshoe, West Virgnia. Daddy was exhausted by the time we got there (you were not the best traveler)! Momma and Daddy hit the slopes while you charmed all the ladies in the day care there! We'd pick you up in the afternoons after a looong day of skiing and we'd all head out for supper. You were quite the handsome little mountain man.
You had your first Valentine's day party too! You went to our friends' the Borden's house. They have a little boy Carson who was born the summer before you were. You were quite the handsome little devil in your light blue striped pants and heart-tie onesie!
In March, right around St. Patrick's Day, you had your first serious illness... RSV (respiratory syncytial virus). You had fever and horrible coughing, so bad that you could hardly sleep for coughing so hard. You almost had to go to the hospital because your lungs were having such a hard time getting enough oxygen for your blood to carry! You were a very strong little baby though and you pulled through. We did breathing treatments with a nebulizer... you did not enjoy having the tube held up to your face. Boy did you get mad! You have always been a very determined little guy!
