| SO BIG...another common mantra you hear daily from me..."So big, so big!" |
Where on earth is our time going? Each day I can't believe that you are a day older, week older, and mostly, a month older! Three months was a hard month for Mommy to chew. This is the first time I have had to start telling people how old you are in months because it is no longer appropriate to account for your age in weeks. It just seems silly to go on saying 14 weeks, 15 weeks, etc. So, three months you are.
 |
| There are those hands I'm talking about... |
This month you have officially become our "little lug". I love seeing you grow and "grow" rolls each and everyday. Our biggest prayer was for you to be healthy and, healthy you are. I'm not 100% sure how much you weighed this month, but with our very scientific way of weighing you, we are guessing about 15 lbs. Holly smokes, you are our "Mr. Chunky Man".
 |
| You are so handsome, I can't even stand it! |
It is also funny to see all of the silly faces you make. People are constantly telling Daddy and I that you are one of the most expressive babies they have met. You can go from shocked to pondering to smiling to "mean mugging" in minutes.
 |
| Your "shocked" face is by far one of my favorites. |
This month we are loving to see you smile. And, the smiles are intentional which has been so much fun to see. They are not all of the time yet, but we know when you are happy and I just love it. My other favorite habit you are developing is the ability to charm the ladies. Every time you get oogled by a lady passerby, you smile and hide your face. You little flirt!
 |
| Everyday I remind you of one very important thing...you are AMAZING. |
And, tummy time is getting a little better (very little). But, we do a little each day and soon you will be rolling over to avoid it I am sure.
 |
| Less than impressed, but much happier than last month.... loving those little smirks you always make. |
Things you love this month:
1. Fans. No, you don't stare at them, but you love for Mommy to stand in front of one when you are trying to go to sleep. Maybe it is because we live in south Alabama and the cool breeze is so nice when the heat is unbearable!
2. Your hands. You have finally found you hands and it is hard to take your attention off of them!!
3. Telling everyone stories...you have become such a chatterbox and I just love it! I also find it funny that no one ever believes your stories...the first thing everyone says as you babble is, "that's not the truth"!
 |
| This was my first attempt at the timer on the camera, but I had to get one with you, MorMor, and I! |
Things you hate this month:
1. Being hungry...this is your biggest beef. No tears for wet diapers, just hunger.
2. Naps...seeing a trend. I was not blessed with a napper, but most days you will snooze long enough just for Mommy to brush her teeth or take a shower...note the "or"!
3. Saying good-bye to MorMor. We were so blessed to have MorMor with us this summer, but she had to go home so she could start work:(
 |
| MorMor loves you so much. It wasn't until Mommy had you that I could even begin to understand how much MorMor loves me. And, I tell her everyday that if she loves me even half as much as I love you... she could move mountains... |
You are my sunshine, Mason Lee.
Love,
Mommy

| It took some coaxing, but I captured a smile. |

| Your monthly tongue photo....I wonder if I will be able to catch one of these every month? |
