3 months

I know I say this every time, but Nixon is 3 months old now and I can't believe how fast he is growing. The time just flies when you have a baby. He is getting to be so much fun and is so active all the time. Here are a few pictures.
Here is a super cute one of him smiling for Nic. (I couldn't get it to rotate)

Here he is in his favorite outfit. He loves to be naked. Check out that nice physique!!!

Things Nixon is doing at 3 months:

-smiles all the time
-cries less (woo hoo!!!!)
-still sleeps through the night
-naps more during the day
-rolls over from his tummy to his back
-rests up on his elbows on his tummy before he rolls over (i need to get a pic of that)
-eats 5 oz. every 2-3 hours
-when he eats, he inhales his bottle within 2-3 minutes...he acts like he hasn't eaten in days
-loves to sit up and face out to see what's going on
-makes a lot more noises
-recognizes his mom and dad when he's around other people
-he never stops moving...he's always kicking his legs, flailing his arms, playing with his hands, or something
-loves to hold his legs straight up in the air when laying on his back
Here he is in his super cute Easter outfit on Easter Sunday. We had a really nice day. We went to church and then went over to my mom and dad's and had a really yummy dinner and then watched Twilight. Nic and I have read all the books and hadn't seen the movie yet, so we were glad to finally be watching it. It was so nice to just hang out and spend time with the family.
And here I am with my little man. (this is his favorite way to be held) I love him so so so much. It's amazing how much you can love someone. I am so grateful to be able to be a mom. I have a few friends that are trying to become mom's and are having trouble, and I am just so thankful that I was blessed with this little guy. He brings so much joy and happiness into our lives. It's so fun to watch him grow and learn new things every day. It truly is a miracle!!! And I am also so grateful for such a wonderful husband. He is an absolutely amazing dad and he loves every second of it. I love watching him with Nixon! I am definitely a lucky girl!!

Cute Easter outfit on Nixon and you! You are one hot mama. I noticed you use the Costco diapers. They are our favorite. It sounds like Nixon is quite the athlete like his daddy. All his skills are impressive. Axton is doing more and more fun things too. Motherhood is the best!
