Bentley 3 months

At 3 months Bentley:
Finally holds his head up- it is heavy!

Enjoys the bumbo and swing for short amounts of time

Loves watching tv- will crane his head so he can see it

Starting laughing right around 3 months.  He never laughs at the same things twice though.  He is ticklish under his arms.

Smiles right after he goes to sleep most of the time.

Goes to bed between 8 and 9 pm and wakes up around 8 am

Still wakes up once in the night a few times a week.  He will drink 4 ounces and go back to sleep.

Wears Size 2 diapers

I switched out his clothes so he is wearing 3-6 month clothes, but most are a little too big

Usually drinks 3- 4 ounces at a time (every 2-3 hours), but occasionally will drink 6-7 ounces at once

Has a hard time waking up from naps and sometimes cries for a while

Starting to drool and will suck/ chew on almost everything- wondering if he will get a tooth soon

Can turn onto his side, so will be rolling over soon

We noticed some bones in his head that we're sticking out and a flat spot.  We took him in to the doctor who thought it was possible he had hydrocephalus.  So we had to have an ultrasound done on his head.  Thankfully it came back normal.  So now we just have to hold him  in our right arm (and bottle in left hand), switched the crib so he is laying on the other side, and do more tummy time every day.

They checked Bentley's height and weight and we were surprised that in only 1 month he grew nearly an inch and gained almost 1.5 pounds.  He now weighs almost 14 pounds!  The weird thing is he is only in the 45th percentile, last month he was in the 47th percentile.

He is 25 inches long (74th percentile).
Aunt Miranda made this toy for him and he loves it.




Bentley is starting to like brynlee a lot more these days.  He smiles and laughs at her instead of crying when she comes around.
He is staring to hold his own bottle


A rare picture of me





Sleeping baby =heavenly









If I havent mentioned this before, Bentley looks exactly the same as john when he was a baby.  


With bentleys cousin penny.  They are 8 weeks apart


With penny and Stetson.  Stetson is the oldest, about 6 weeks older than Bentley.  But Bentley is obviously the biggest.  Stetson is johns cousins little boy.
