Callen: 3 months



Callen's 3 month stats:
weight: 14 lbs 
height: 25.5 inches

This little guy is such a joy!!
He is cooing even more and loves to talk to anyone who will look at him.
He started really giving us giggles this month and is so ticklish.
His favorite spot to be tickled is right around his neck and chest.  
Callen is still SO loved by all the boys. They really are so wonderful with him and love to hold him and snuggle him.
He loves being held and snuggled and walked around. 
His favorite position is upright, against your shoulder.  He loves falling asleep like that.
He traveled for the first time on a plane and slept a lot of the time, he did wonderful during the airport parts...but he didn't have a very good time in MO. At. ALL.  Apparently he is a home-body and loves his own bed!!  
He is a fantastic eater and loves his time with mommy!
His schedule is still not too strict...we've been working on getting in full feedings and setting his routine of eat/play/sleep in order.  
He is awake a little bit more in the daytime and  has is sleeping a pretty consistent 6-6.5 hour stretch at night from about 11 or 12 to 5 or 6ish.
We've been trying to get him to like the binky...but those fingers are winning out. We're still working on it, but it's not looking good for the binky!  
He's holding his head up better and better and loves to look around.
Not a fan of tummy time.
He has a darling dimple on his right cheek. It shows up when he smiles!

Talking to daddy:


Smiling while we talk to him:



Dear Callen,
You are growing so quickly and we are trying to savor every second of your sweet baby self!
The minute we look at you, we can't help but smile, you lift our hearts and brighten our home in so many ways.
Your brothers are your biggest fans. You are so patient with them and let them each hold you and tickle you. They all love to share their blankets with you, which is so sweet for this mama to see.
Your calm temperment is such a blessing during this busy time.  We all love to relax with you in our arms. Mine and daddy's favorite time of day is when we get to snuggle you all to ourselves and chat away the evenings with you. You love our quiet time together and are such a ham when you have us alone. :)  
We love you, our wonderful, sweet little boy.
Love,
Mommy & Daddy
