3 months old

Of course I have to start by saying that Leyton's reflux is finally under control-he's still not sleeping through the night yet-but at least the reflux is not a problem. Yay!!!

Since I started back to work on November 15, Leyton stays with Granna 3 days a week and Nana & Papa 2 days a week-we are soo blessed- and it's a relief to know that Leyton is in good hands. He has gained so much personality over the past month-it's crazy. He is smiling ALOT (especially when he sees his mama :)), actually laughing-it's not just a cough anymore, he's constantly "talking", cooing, babbling and slobbering/blowing bubbles. He seems to be enjoying books and music more and really likes football, Oswald and Wonder Pets. He is grabbing, pulling, batting at toys and putting them in his mouth. He's also sucking on multiple fingers at once (3-4 at a time) and doing so on his left hand. He still loves his baths, infact we've added toys to the tub which he constantly tries to kick. As I said earlier-he's not sleeping through the night yet but seems to be waking up once a night on the average. We'll get there-it's the least of my worries. He is holding his head up really well and we are now working on rolling over and sitting up.

Leyton had two "first" events in November-his first wedding and Thanksgiving. We went to Austin for my cousins wedding and he did really well for all the driving around and events that we attended (rehearsal dinner, brunch, wedding & reception and post wedding lunch). This family picture, taken at the wedding, is our first since the day he was born.


















Thanksgiving was low-key this year and we enjoyed my Mom's delicious, homemade, enough-for-an-army cooking. This picture was taken that day and no I didn't buy him the shirt-it was a gift from his Aunt JuJu.
























December has also brought and will bring more firsts as well. Leyton got to experience his first snow last Wednesday-so his Granna dressed him accordingly as you can tell below.
















Now that I have started back to work I miss my baby immensely-but he is being taken very good care of. My favorite part of the day is when I come home and I see Leyton and he gets a huge smile across his face-it makes me melt!!!! Thank you God for such a wonderful blessing!!!!!!!!!!
