finnick is 3 months!

that was the shortest month ever:) finnick was 3 months on the 28th. he is getting even cuter and he's just a really happy baby!
-he laughs now. i've only been able to make him laugh a couple times. it's my daily goal now!
-he is the most patient little eater, he wakes up happy and just talks in his bed a while even though it's been several hours since he's eaten. then i will lay him by me on the couch while i pump and he has to wait just a little bit longer and just sits there and waits, sucking his binky like crazy. but not crying!
-he has lost almost all his hair on top. just like jasper and bastien.
(embry just didnt have a whole lot to begin with)
his head is also a little lopsided on one side.
i try to put his head to the other side each time i lay him down.
i know tummy time will help too. i need to be better about that!
-he sleeps from about 9pm-6am. occasionally he will wake up around 4 or 5, and at first i would feed him but he just was really sleepy while feeding him so i stopped and if he wakes up i just put the binky back in his mouth a few times and he falls back asleep.
(sometimes i would be lazy and bring him to my bed to lay by me but
that always makes me so nervous-i never sleep well)
-he loves his binky (the mams or avent silicone ones) and needs it to fall asleep when we are out places. i have forgotten it 3 times and it wasnt fun. there are pros and cons to binkys but the pros are amazing! i love binky babes.
-after he eats i sit him in his little bouncy chair and he just sits there content watching his brothers. its nice cause i have about 30 or so mins to get stuff done, then he gets tired. i put him down for a nap in his crib. and i have some more time to get stuff done.
-you could say he is basically on a schedule now. his naps are not the same times everyday..and they are in his car seat a lot. as long as he continues to sleep good in his crib i dont care where he naps! i think i will be more concerned with a time schedule when Bastien starts school.
(a little over a month, weird!)
-he's a busy little guy-always kicking his legs!
