Maxwell is Three Months

Well, Maxwell was three months March 30th and now it's April 17th, but all of these pictures are from his Three Month session.  I'm just a little behind on blogging.  It might have to do with the 4 month sleep regression hitting us a little early and the transition to the crib and getting back into photography and life...just life.  Blogging isn't at the top of my list these days, but since nugget is sleeping on my chest, Jared is outside playing with friends, Ryan is golfing, and Lira is snoring next to me, and I am wide awake, I have a little time to catch up on blogging!  

A lot has changed since his two month mark and we love him more and more every day!   

Three Month Memories

His neck control is so much better and he doesn't hate tummy time anymore.  He doesn't love it for a long time, but he enjoys it when you get down and talk to him!  

He smiles and laughs and coos all the time and responds to you!  It's the best!  He has the sweetest little voice!  Waking up to his coos puts me in a wonderful mood even with limited broken sleep. God knew what he was doing when he created babies and mommies.  I have a bond with this little guy like no other and am so blessed to be his mommy!

He rolled from tummy to back!!!

He loves being on his back, kicking his piano, and being read to!  His favorite books at the moment are "Giraffes Can't Dance" and "Rainbow Fish." Mommy happens to like reading them too!

We celebrated St. Patty's Day with a "Kiss Me I'm Irish-ish" onesie and shamrock leg warmers!

He met his Uncle Ross and his Grammy Peggy in March! 

We celebrated Easter at my parents' house with my brothers and sisters and right after that Maxwell started sleeping in his crib in the nursery.  He took the transition better than I did at first, but now I am completely adjusted to it and enjoy having alone time with Ryan again!  I forgot what it was like to be in our bedroom and not have to whisper.  We can actually have conversations!  Thanks for the push babe!  

He sucked his thumb for the first time and actually self soothed himself while we were driving!  HUGE milestone for this mama. This picture is from the second time he sucked his thumb.

A little photoshoot with Brother during his spring break was mandatory before the rain rolled in. This was the first time he wore shorts!  Baby legs look funny in shorts!

Our monthly Mommy & Me photos were taken at the Norfolk Botanical Gardens!
