Three Months

Desmond is now 16 lbs 5 oz and 26 inches according to our own very scientific measurements. I feel like that's big. Is it also weird that I feel like he was born WAY longer than three months ago? But at the same time that eternal push fest was just yesterday...

Dez did his first real projectile spit up yesterday. Luckily I was sitting between it and the couch. It all happened so fast.

He's also grabbing at a lot more and has discovered that his hands can touch each other. He clasps them together over and over and lies there staring at his hands. He's also grabbed his feet a couple times but he's still figuring that out.

He really only naps while I'm holding him or he's in the car or swing. He sleeps great at night once he falls asleep. But for the past couple weeks he only acts tired at his bed time and after being asleep in his crib for about 10 minutes he's wide awake until 2 or 3 am. He's such a little weirdo. When he wakes up he doesn't cry or anything but I don't have it in me to leave him in there drowning in his own drool while I know he's awake. Drooliest child ever. He only sucks his thumb sometimes while on his stomach, and other times he'll either try and shove his fist in his mouth, just his middle finger, the first two fingers, or any other combo possible. Nothing has stuck though. We haven't even tried a binky for a long time cause I know he wouldn't keep it in his mouth. He also chokes himself with his fingers pretty regularly. So there's that.

He's also been coughing a lot but about 99% percent of those sound extremely fake and it's hilarious. The other 1% is from choking himself with his fingers.

He's wearing a lot of 6 month clothes and I'm in denial he's too big for the 3 month stuff. Sometimes I still dress him in 3 month clothes so he can get one last wear in before I have to say goodbye. It's not weird.

So obsessed with my little buddy!
