Tomorrow my boy is a whole 12 weeks old. Before i know it he is going to be off and leaving me isn’t he? For all the fear and doubts i had all i want is him to stay this way, i want my boy to be little forever. Im completely head over heels for him and constantly feel like the luckiest person alive.
He is a fun, adorable and funny little boy. Personality wise seems to be right in the middle of his sisters , a mix of all there good parts (for the moment).
You still have to work for a smile but they are given a little easier than a few weeks back . You get a few giggles now and then (normally when tickling - he is very ticklish) .
He is trying to roll , loves kicking around and playing with his toys. He seems to take everything in and is not the loudest of children, he will coo and babble when happy and excited but he mostly remains silent and watches… He loves the song “Clappy Clappy Handies, Daddies coming home ” and he nearly always giggles at it
He loves to kick about naked
His sleeping is still great, he is now spending at least half the night in his moses basket and when he wakes up i take him in with me . I barely wake up for that just grab, latch him on then go back to sleep. He is getting into a routine during the day.
He is a big boy, last weight in was 2 weeks ago and he was 14lbs and 24inch (so i think he will not be around 15lbs and about 24 1/2 inch now) 3/6 Months clothes are fitting perfectly and i imagine will only be doing so for a few more weeks.
He has fitted right in and just goes with the flow, now if i could just get him to stop growing so much i would be happy.

He’s gorgeous! And doing really well. Sounds like Noah - a speedy grower and very chilled out! I used to struggle hearing Noah’s cry if we were somewhere noisy it was so quiet. Noah’s growing has slowed a lot since he started walking so we’re getting more for our money out of clothes now, fingers crossed it’s the same for Ru.

What a beautiful boy! He really is. I’m so impressed you’re up and blogging when your baby is so little. Thanks for your kind comments on the blog and sorry you also had a bad experience in the NICU (I’m guessing that was with your eldest?) It is a stressful time for all concerned. x
