Time for a Ben update!  He’s 3 months old and as you can see, he’s hardly the tiny little baby we brought home from the hospital.  Ben is growing like a champ in both length & weight.  Without an official weigh-in or height check, I’d say he’s probably about 14 lbs., and 26 inches in length.  The super big news at our house is… We’re getting a lot more sleep now!!!  On good nights, Ben can sleep from 9PM to about 5 or 6AM.  We’ve cut out those 1 AM & 4 AM feedings.  This is huge!!!  You might have heard me doing the happy dance about it :)   Other things that have happened:  Ben has visited Cheekwood, Target, my allergy doctor’s office, our local Fourth of July street fair, and Tim & Tracy’s house!  He’s quite the traveler! :)

So what kinds of things does our 3-month old love?

  • Ben loves to play on his activity mat– especially with Tim the giraffe!
  • Ben loves to look at books and listen to mommy and daddy read stories to him
  • Ben loves his boppy
  • Ben loves his swing & his bouncer
  • Ben loves stroller rides around his neighborhood
  • Ben loves to giggle & laugh
  • Ben loves tummy time
  • Ben loves to flirt with all of our light fixtures and ceiling fans.  It’s hilarious to watch!

Now… I know you still want to see more of our little guy… Sit back and enjoy the Ben Show-months 2 & 3 of his sweet little life :)

    Ohmygosh, soooo cute!! He has such a sweet smile! And you guys are so lucky to be getting that much sleep at this point. What a thoughtful little boy, letting his parents get some rest. ;)
