Ezra at 3 Months

Ezra is 3 months old! I don't want to forget all the little things about our little guy, so here are some Ezra facts.

Likes:
  • When mommy sings to him
  • Talking (being talked to and talking back). The best is when he talks with his mouth full.
  • TV
  • Yellow. He is fascinated with and tries to grab anything that is yellow, especially the Warning sign in his car seat, the yellow tag on his bag of diapers, and the lion on his bouncy chair.
  • His pacifier
  • Touching his cheeks with his feet (with some help from Mommy and Daddy)
  • Cameras. You can't get him to look away!
  • Lights. Pretty typical but he will stare and stare.

Dislikes:
  • His car seat
  • Being over-tired
  • Having a wet or dirty diaper
  • Tummy time, but he's getting better!

He's a pretty easy baby! More random facts:
  • He has really started reaching for things and grabbing them. He's a champ at getting things to the side of him, but it still learning how to get those things above him. 
  • Tummy time isn't so bad anymore, especially when we do "the Superman." He is fascinated when we "fly" him from room to room.
  • He does something that Tom calls "satelliting." It's looks like he's trying to get an itch on the back of his head. He moves his head from side to side like he just can't take everything in fast enough!
  • He is drooling. He especially drools when he is on his tummy.
  • He bites! Luckily, only when I stick my finger in his mouth. He doesn't just suck on it, he actually bites it. Sometimes hard.
  • He smiles a lot. He will smile when we just look at him. The best is when he's all swaddled up and all we can see are his eyes squinting.
  • He's sleeping in his crib now! Sometimes mommy has to reinsert the binky in the middle of the night (anywhere from 1-5 times....) but he usually goes right back to sleep. He will wake up in the morning anywhere from 5:30-7:30.
  • He likes his bath and pees out of the tub every single time. Luckily, he hasn't peed on mommy and daddy for a long time!
  • Every once in a while, he'll let out a yell. It's usually when we're somewhere noisy. It always surprises us.
  • He eats too much. He spits up a lot because he doesn't know when to stop. Mommy has to decide when he's done and just let him be mad for a few seconds until he realizes he's full.
  • He has started laughing, he's just got to figure it out a bit more. Sometimes he really wants to laugh and all he can do is a loud sigh. He's getting there!

I will add to this as I think of more! Sorry if it bores you; I just don't want to forget anything.

Now, some pictures!

Look at those blue eyes!

Newborn









I forgot to add to his "newborn pictures," Ezra pooped in daddy's hands. He was sitting in Tom's hand when we heard a really loud fart (the kind that echoes in a cupped hand) and that nice 'waterfall' sound that breastfed babies make when they poop. So funny.

A Few More

Because I can't resist.

Haha!

Love that precious smile.
