Tate Update: 3 Months

Our little Tater Tot is 3 Months Old today!!!  Hard to believe it's been 3 months already and of coarse I took pictures to mark this special day!


Here's how Tate has grown in the last month!

- he is 14.9 pounds
-size 2 diapers
-anywhere from 3month-9 month clothing
-doesn't like being left alone, wants to be able to see you
-enjoys baths
-baby acne cleared
-says "ahh-goo" and "geeee" loves to have conversations with you
-blows bubble and razzes when he is excited or concentrating
-his hair can't decide if it wants to grow or fall out, he is on his third coat of hair :)
-wants daddy when he is gassy and want mommy when he is hungry or tired
-sleeps on belly in his crib
         -May 20th slept from 11pm-6am
          -June 6th slept from 11pm-9am
            -June 14th slept from 10pm-9am....in other words he is a good sleeper!
-Tried rice cereal twice but he didn't like it, so we stopped
-nurses every 3-4 hours
-Starting to adjust into a schedule, this is a good day: up at 6am to eat- eat every 3 hours-napping in between and asleep for the night by 10pm
-lifts head 90 degree when on belly
-can bear most of his weight on his legs, stands when we hold onto his hands
-holds head steady when upright
-brings both hands together
-rolled over June 1st and rolled over today!
-can grab things (blanket, pacifier...) and put them in his mouth
-keeps head level with body when pulled to sitting
-can follow an object 180 degrees
-turns head to mom and dads voice
-nicknames "Tater" for obvious reasons "Monkey" because of his long leg and arms
-occasionally sucks thumb



Over all Tate is an "easy" baby, he is so smiley and happy.  He just loves to look at you and talk.  Riley is really adjusting to Tate, Riley like to go in and wake Tate up "OOOHHH...good morning baby Tate...did you sleepy good!?"  it's pretty cute!  Riley also calls him Tater, which just cracks me up! Below are some 3 month pictures of Tate...and as you will see, I can't take much credit for Tate's looks :)

14.9 pounds ( the scale was dialed back for the padding, clothing and diaper, so it reads accurate)

Tate-Looking like Mr. GQ

           
                                             Could he look more like his daddy!?

                                                                   My little monkey!

Thumb War II

Guess who decided to start sucking his thumb.....

Riley sucked his thumb from 2-5 months

He never did it a lot, just once in a while...while he was chewing on his hands he would find his thumb.  

And that is what Tate does...he just happens to find his thumb and suck for a little bit.  

It's just too cute...as long as it stops by the time he is 1 year!
