3 months old

My little man is already 3 months old.  Actually 3 1/2 months old!  Crazy stuff.  I was telling Cody today that we hadn't even told anyone we were pregnant yet at 3 months along.  I feel like we have had this little guy forever, and yet, only days.  It's crazy to watch him grow and change so fast.

I tried to take some pictures of him the other day.  He is such a mover and a shaker that I took 50 pictures and got about 10 clear ones!  Gone are the days of still baby legs and long naps.  He is so active!

This is a new one.  He is about to give a little yell.  He has lots of cries now, and his yelling is getting PRETTY good.

We went to the farmer's market and the library this morning.  He loved it.

I took these last week when I got home from work.  Cody had dressed him in his White Sox outfit and they were both going to be all White Sox'd out and watch baseball while I worked.  Well...  Arlo had a different plan.  He wanted to scream and cry all day.  Guess who won?

He has become quite opinionated this week.  He likes to sit facing out and he likes to be carried.  All the time.  I like to tell him we can't always have what we want.  {He is learning.}

I have about 20 pictures that are just like this.  Almost perfect, and then he moves. He really likes to wave those arms and kick his legs.  Love it.

 After being away from him for a few hours while I worked the other day, all I wanted to do was cuddle and hold him.  Lucky guy, he was in heaven.  I can't wait to see what changes another 3 months brings.  Crawling, drooling, and grabbing everything in sight.

Evening Stroll

Arlo and I try to get out and walk a few times a week.  It is a little tricky because we have to time it right to beat the heat.  Today I missed out on the morning walk and opted for an evening stroll instead.  He goes to bed before sunset, but it was still really pretty and almost bearable temperature wise. 

We just made the switch this week to riding in the stroller without the little car seat attachment.  He seems to enjoy his rides a lot more, but now I can't see his face to see if he is awake, frowning, or super stoked.  Oh well, he lets me know if he is really unhappy with a loud yell.

He loves being outside.  His eyes get huge and he turns his head from side to side.  He is just realizing he controls where he can look, it is hilarious.

3 months old and looking chubby.  I love him so much!

His little face peeks just over the side.  Hey buddy, what's up?  This is a little different from your usual white box we call an apartment, huh?

I can't wait until Fall when it is a little cooler and we can go for walks anytime we want.  Yay for cooler weather on the horizon.  For now, we bask in the sunrise and sunset time period.

Visit to Arizona

The whole family came out to Tucson to meet our new baby Arlo.  We had so much fun and now Arlo is missing his Aunts and Uncles AND Grandpa of course.  He wants to be played with non-stop and held.  Thanks guys...  I think he misses the pool time with everyone the most.

 

Splish Splash!

 

I miss my baby hot tub.

 

Play with me! (Arlo screams while I try to comfort him.)

 

An heir and the spares (and Arlo.)

 

Makes you want a little one, huh guys?  :)

 

 

Arlo, Dad, and Grandpa.

 

My Uncles rock!  Please don't dunk me in the water.

 

 

Loving Grandpa.

 

We still have Grandma here to play with but it just isn't the same without everyone!
