3 Months!!

Geez!  It sure would be nice to get this posted before the babies are 4 months old, which is two weeks from tomorrow.  What the heck?!?!  Where does time go?  It makes me sad!

So, here it is, their 3 month post!

Kanon –
·         You are getting so big! 
·         You are taking 5 ounces now in your bottle
·         You are sleeping amazingly at night!  We started letting you sleep instead of waking you when Sissy wakes up, and you now sleep through the night.  You go to bed anywhere from 8:00 – 8:30 and you wake up anywhere from 5:30 – 6:00. 
·         You are still in newborn diapers, but I have a feeling that won’t be the case much longer as they are getting snug!  You can only wear the Huggies now as the Pampers fit smaller, so we’re saving those for Remi.
·         We’ve moved you from newborn clothes to 0-3 months.  My baby is growing up!
·         You LOVE talking!  Especially to Grammie!  You think she is the greatest and you will just grin and chat up a storm with her.  You say “I love you” in your baby-cooing language and it is ADORABLE!  We finally captured it on video and Grammie and I were thrilled to finally get it!
·         Today, on your two month birthday, you saw your first fireworks and went to SWC for the annual 3^rd of July Celebration (which was on the 2^nd this year since the 3^rd is a Sunday).  You weren’t overly impressed by the fireworks and watched for a little bit before you feel asleep.  Oh, and you looked darling in your blue headphones to protect your sweet little ears!
·         At SWC, several people commented about how you look like your Papa Wolfe.  He would have loved you and your sister so much, and I know he is keeping Chandler & Paisley entertained in Heaven. 
·         You love your little monkeys on your swing, and will tell them you love them!  It’s so cute!
·         You have the most adorable smile.  It just melts this momma’s heart and I never want to fail you.
·         Ducky is still your favorite wub.  You will raise Ducky up and move him around, and then try so hard to put the paci back in your mouth. 
·         You pretty much hate tummy time.
·         You haven’t had a doctor’s visit since May 31, so our best guess on your weight is somewhere close to 11 pounds.  
·         Perhaps your favorite time is bath time!  You just love it!!

Remi –

·         Baby girl, your personality is coming to life and we love it!
·         You don’t really like to wake up in the mornings and most times, when we let you wake up on your own, it is about a 15 minute process involving lots of stretching and falling back to sleep before you finally decide you are up.
·         You take 4.5 ounces in your bottle now and do so good with feedings!  You have also started nursing a lot better when we try it, and it makes momma so happy!
·         Although Lucy was your favorite wub for a while, Paulie seems to have moved into first. 
·         You have started talking too, and you have the sweetest little voice.  You coo “I love you” and “I’m good” (or at least that is what we think it sounds like).
·         You are still in newborn diapers and newborn clothes.
·         You loved sitting on Daddy’s lap and watching the fireworks.  You just stared at them and loved every minute of them! 
·         You are so strong!  You hold your head up so well!  It amazes us. 
·         You even like to stand up on me and Daddy.  We’ll hold you up and you straighten your legs and just love standing!
·         You rolled over from your tummy to your back just a few days ago!  So proud of you!
·         You sleep through the night most nights, but occasionally still wake up anywhere from 2:30 – 4:00.
·         When you are finished eating, you do not hesitate to let us know!  You have started this “gag thing” where you make a noise like you are gagging.  It sounds like a really loud “Yack”, and it is hilarious.  You aren’t gagging, because you’ve done it when we are just starting to put the bottle in your mouth, so we know it is just your way of letting us know you are finished!  It cracks us up!

·         We guess that you weigh a little over 9 pounds.
·         Just like your brother, you LOVE bath time.  You cry instantly when we take you out!

Kanon & Remi – You truly are the light of our lives.  Although we miss Chandler & Paisley so much, you have brought us a happiness that we never knew if we would have.  You make us smile and laugh, and in those moments when we are sad that your brother and sister aren’t here, we can look at you and feel love.  I still don’t think Dusty and I understand the depths of darkness that we were in that you saved us from.  We love you, sweet babies.

P.S.  I promise to get your 4 month post done on time!
