I can't believe it's been 3 months since my little love muffin was born! It's been pretty exciting, to say the least. I measured Waylon this morning and he weighs about 15.5 pounds which puts him between the 75th and 90th percentile, and is 26 inches long, which puts him between the 90th and 95th percentile. I guess the little beast isn't so little!
We have been having a lot of fun the last couple of weeks. Waylon loves to listen to music (Outkast, Motown, and Scott's olde timey country are favorites), play on his gym and give little pets to his dogs. He has been babbling a lot lately and I think he gets the idea of conversation. He laughs when I sing to him and when I read him stories. Waylon has really preferred to be held upright since he was born (and before I guess, since he was breech) so I feel like his neck is pretty strong for a 3-month old. Maybe sitting up is not far off?
I think we have finally got the whole "sleeping through the night" thing down. A week ago, I started mixing cereal into his last bottle of the night and he hasn't woken up for a 4 a.m. feeding since. So right now it's just formula and a little rice cereal, but I honestly can't wait to start giving him more real food! I think he's going to like it and I know I will enjoy introducing him to new foods and figuring out his favorites. A few days ago, Scott actually gave him a few bites of refried beans. I did not enjoy that diaper. But he understood right away how to eat off the spoon and I think he liked it. He better, with the amount of Mexican food that gets eaten in this house!
We can't quite decide who Baby Way looks like. He's much paler than either Scott or me and although the Brizzolaras think he looks like Scott, the Manos fam seems to think he looks more like me. The only thing I can tell for sure is that he has Scott's chin and my mouth. Well, and my temper. That baby has the best angry face ever and is super loud when he gets impatient. It's cute now, but I'm going to have to reign that in sooner rather than later. Here's a pic of Waylon just out of the bath this morning. He loves the bath but never actually remembers that he likes the bath, so he screams for about 10 seconds right when you put him in.
I never posted the 2 month photo, so here's both the 2 month and the 3 month....Little boy is really growing!
