Nate - 3 months

I am a little behind on blogging, but here is Nathan at 3 months. He continues to be a sweetheart. My favorite thing about Nathan is that he is a good sleeper. He sleeps about 8-9 hours at night, eats, and then goes back to sleep for 3-5 more hours. And yes, he does this every night. I only have to get up once! It is absolutely lovely. He's been doing this for about a month now.
We're not sure of his weight and height (he has no doctor's appointment until 4 months), but I'm guessing he's between 14 and 15 pounds. I have no idea on the height. But I know that he's growing because he's a good eater and he fit into his 3-6 month clothes at 2 months. Coming from a 5 pound 13 ounce baby, he's sure big now!
He looks just like his daddy. Everyone thinks so. He is a very happy boy. He smiles whenever someone gives him attention, coos at everything, squeals with delight, and is on the verge of giggling. He lifts up his head all the way when laying on his stomach, can hold his head steady when upright, and loves to stand up! He likes to bat at objects and is starting to "claw" everything around him---especially my hair and necklace.
It is tough to get a picture of him smiling, because whenever we take out the camera, he stares at it in fascination. But here is one that we did catch:


We are so lucky to have this little guy in our life!

He's so cute! And, getting so big. I am extremely jealous of his sleeping, maybe he could have a little talk with Matt...
