three months

so handsome

this is his laughing/talking with daddy

i love my little man

at three months, liam...
-loves to be in this johnny jump up
-now sleeps in his own room at night and for naps
-is not a fan of the carseat, especially when it's not in motion
-still LOVES to be held at all times and sleeps best in someone's arms
-still can't figure out how to sleep at night for longer than 4 hours  :)
-smiles at everyone.  this really makes for happy strangers behind me in the check out line.
-tries to sit up when I lay him down
-'talks' a lot and says the sound /g/
-loves to be outside
-has officially grown out of all 0-3 month clothes (it seemed to happen overnight!)
-weighs 16+ lbs!
-is learning to like the bumbo...but still not a real fan
-likes the tv (ya, i know...good parenting, jaci)
-loves to spend the mornings with grandma lea ella
-still adores bath time and being naked! he smiles when i start the water and take off his diaper.
-is testing out a 'no dairy' diet to help the pooping process!  this stresses mommy out because she's having to relearn how to cook and eat with no milk, cheese, yogurt or butter (and that means no ice cream either!)  he also drinks prune or apple juice at least once a day.  again....pooping is proving to be harder than you would think! (no pun intended)
-has started really noticing his hands and goes cross eyed when he watches them move
-is a very happy and smiley boy!

...i am so cute i even match my daddy for church


...i'm totally getting strong

and..
better late than never...
i finally have a nursery!  though the walls and dresser aren't painted like mommy wants, it's still cool to have my own room.

...now she just has to get brave enough to let me sleep in there during the night

So proud to be one of his posterity.
So appreciative of his long and incredibly fulfilling life.
So much admiration for his life of service to others.
So grateful he got to meet my first born (great grandchild #50!)
So hard to put my feelings into words
So miss him already...


love you grandpa
