3 Months Old!

It's hard to believe that our baby is 3 months old today!  I still can't believe how fast time is going.  I know everyone says it goes by fast but I didn't think it would go by this fast!  I have no idea how much he weighs because we don't go to the pediatrician again for another month.  He is approx. 25in length.  Liam has to wear 6 month clothing in most things, depending on the brand.  He loves to smile and I love it when he smiles!  He is grabbing and holding on to things more purposefully. Liam also loves hair; yup I either need to chop off all my hair or keep it in a ponytail 24 hours a day :) He also likes to grab our fingers and be pulled up into a sitting position.  He thinks he is big stuff.  Anyway, here are a few (or a ton) pictures of our 3 month old baby Liam...

Loves his baths

Look how big he is compared to his very 1st bath

 Recently if you tickle his back he almost laughs.  It is hilarious!

 3 MONTHS OLD!

 He's excited about it!

 So Sweet

 Happy baby

 Sitting up

 Naked baby!

 Eating his shirt

 So focused sometimes

 1st you sit up

 Then you stand

 He loves it!

 Cute boy

 This morning he woke up all happy and eating his monkey blanket.  I love his sleepy face.

Now then, I am still working on his new room and Brandi helped me out by making this lovely whale mobile.  I love it.  I am currently working on painting some shelves to hang also. I also finally found a red sheet for his crib.  I have been looking for one but either they didn't carry them or they were out.  I think it gives a whole new vibe to his room! Oh yeah and I am not as anxious to kick him out quite yet.  I think I will miss him not being in the room with us and the fact that I need to hear him breathing. I know I am being paranoid but I was fine until I heard a story from one of my recent patients and I got all freaked out about SIDS again.  I think when I do move him I am going to have to do it over the course of a couple days off because I don't think I will sleep very well the first few nights without him.

Love it!

Now then, I had some issues getting this posted.  Apparently, I have run out of space on my blog.  I didn't even realize I could.  Chris and I may have to find a new website to blog on :(  We will keep you all posted if we need to find a new webpage.

Jenna Hagen Comes to Town

 Jenna was in town for a few days to visit Liam; Chris and I were just bonuses.  Liam was so excited to get a gift from her, it was awesome.  I love his face in these pictures. I know Chris already posted one of them but too bad you'll just have to see it again.  

 Holding on tightly to his present.

 Smiling at his Aunt Jenna

 He thought she was pretty cool

 Jenna and Liam opening his gift.

Now then, Chris and I had to work while Jenna was here.  It was nice for me because it allowed for some sleep!  She didn't mind because she was able to hang with Liam.  No worries we didn't completely abuse her as a babysitter.  On Tuesday we took Jenna to the Teddy Roosevelt Memorial.  It is on an island and you have to park and walk across a short bridge to it.  It can be very pretty- just not so much during the winter because everything is dead looking and they turn the water fountains off at the memorial.  

 Here is Jenna at the sign before we cross over the bridge.

Then we headed over to the National Cathedral.  It was beautiful as always and we were able to go inside before it closed. 

 Liam slept through it all

As we were coming back from the Cathedral, I mentioned something about the Georgetown Cupcakes which is a show on TLC and how someday I was going to go there.  Jenna became very excited and decided she wanted to go there also [immediately].  We made Chris take us, luckily the line wasn't out the door.

 Outside the building

 Liam and Chris outside after we bought our cupcakes.  

On another note, as we were standing at the crosswalk to get back to the car.  Liam ended up being surrounded by women swooning how adorable he is.  After that Chris told me Liam and him are going to leave the house without me more often. Ha!

 Here is our cute little box the cupcakes came in

 And here are our beautiful cupcakes.  Now then, just so you know the cupcakes were really not all that impressive. Don't get me wrong they were good but I would never actually stand in line for them like some people do.

Here is Liam checking himself out

 Liam has a little frog that he LOVES.  It is the perfect size for him and he can hold it and slobber all over it!

 Hugging his frog friend

 More lovin'

Friday was BEAUTIFUL outside! Unfortunately, I was comatose after working 2 night shifts in a row and barely functioning and trying to entertaining an almost 3 month old during the day.  I did manage to get to the grocery store in the afternoon so Chris and I didn't starve to death.  Then when Chris arrived home Liam and I were waiting for him outside and we ate dinner on our cute little table.  Liam loved it.  There was a slight breeze and he got a kick out of it when it hit his face.  Not that I captured any pictures though.

 Daddy and Liam

After dinner Chris left to go pick up his license plates at the car lot.  When he was gone I had Liam on his blanket and we were playing.  The last few days he likes to roll side to side.  But tonight he actually rolled over from his back to his stomach!!  I immediately called Chris and told him.  Then I grabbed my camera but of course he didn't roll over again. 

 So I here's a picture of him rolling on his side.

 Liam also likes to stand lately, with assistance of course!

He thinks he is a pretty cool guy and I would have to agree :)

A Valentine's Day Gift

For you...

He will fight you if you cross him.

And he will smile at you if you bring him gifts from AZ (thanks Auntie Jenna).

p.s. He's carrying that bag (for a couple of minutes, at least).
