12 Weeks Old

Wow.  12 weeks already. 

 

For comparison, at 1 Week

He’s in love with the mobile in his bed.  He’ll sit and watch it, kicking and cooing as each Winnie the Pooh character floats by.

He smiles a lot and seeing that will make any bad day better.

He eats and eats and eats… sometimes he eats 8oz in one feeding and then is ready to eat his normal 5oz again in 3 hours.  (Definitely his Daddy’s son)

He’s sleeping 8+ hours every night (YAY!!!)

His neck and back strength is really improving.  We don’t really have to worry about holding his head when we hold him.

You talking to me, Pooh?

Hey Ladies, I’m available!

I go back to work on Monday.  I guess I don’t “go” anywhere until Tuesday as I’ll work from home on Monday.  I’m most stressed about all the logistics of everything. I know I’ll miss the little man but I’m also a little excited to get back into my routine at work.  I’ve never dreamed of staying home so I always knew being with Cason every day was temporary.  I’ll admit that after spending 12 weeks at home with the little guy there is now some level of wanting to stay home but not enough to actually take the plunge and do it…yet! 

Monday will be Cason’s first full day with the sitter.  I took him yesterday for a couple of hours and he did great.  The other kids seem to be excited to have a baby joining the group.  I know he’s going to thrive being around the older kids and that makes me really excited.
