Letters to Connor: 3 Months

My heart is sad and overjoyed at the same time today. My baby boy is three months old today and in most books this officially ends the "newborn" stage. I remember those first months when we would just snuggle and nap in bed. Now, he wants to talk and giggle. I love all of his stages and how he has changed over the past few months.

I have not been blogging milestones like I should have, but I will try much harder in the coming months because I am quite certain they will pick up pace now that my little guy is off and running...
He can:

Follow objects held above his head 180 degrees both ways
Follow objects while sitting up both ways
Hold his head up pretty steady with no help anymore
Sit up while you are holding his tummy and back
Sit up in Bumbo for 10+ minutes (providing he is in the mood to do that!)
Chew on his hands
Brings legs up. He hasn't quite found his feet with his hands, but it won't be long now
He moves constantly
But even better....he smiles and coos. He has even started testing out the volume of his voice
He protest when he doesn't want to take a nap (but mom knows he needs one)

Most recently, as of last weekend:

He has started reaching for objects and putting them in his mouth.
Did a "mini push-up" while on tummy time
Sleeping through the night (YAY!!!) We still wake him to give him a late night bottle around 10ish, but then I have to wake him up at 7am.

He has the most amazing faces he makes. I just wish I knew what he was thinking.
Here are some pictures I took today, on his three month birthday. I am not as good as TiTi is with the camera, but I think I did okay with no editing.
