We're back!

So, after many months of being absent from this, we're back.  Life is falling into routine now with our little man.  He's 3 months old now!  He's more then doubled his birth weight and is right on track with his developmental skills.  Except he hates tummy time and I hate feeling like I am torturing him, so we're slowly working on getting more tummy time in.  He can hold his head up, though, when you hold him over your shoulder.  He definitely prefers to have us hold him up so he can flex his little legs, or sit on our laps so he can kick and kick and kick (kick our stomachs that is)!  We're getting more aware of when he is just bored and wants to be moved around until he finds a sight in the house to observe and look at.  It's so cute.  And he's even getting too long for some of his 0-3 months sized clothes.  It's so crazy to look back at his pictures from the NICU or when we first brought him home; he was so little.  At that time I didn't know he was so little.  When people say he's little now, I am flabbergasted almost, but I have to remember that strangers weren't there from the beginning. 

Look forward to more!  As I often sit and hold a sleeping baby, I do research on some things and I am excited to share some insights I've come to about parenting.  This post is a bit unorganized as I am between laundry loads and straightening up the house while hoping my child stays asleep in his swing!
