3 months!

Jackson turned 3 months old yesterday!  He is getting so smiley and interactive with mommy and daddy!  At three months, Jackson loves playing with his toys that make noises.  He is getting really good at "pushing" the buttons (which is really more like hitting his toys at the right spot!) and gets very excited when they make noise.

 Jackson has also turned into quite the escape artist.  If we don't swaddle him when putting him to bed, he wakes himself up by hitting his pacifier out of his mouth and wiggling.

We used to swaddle him in his blanket, but he got too strong for us and learned how to break free, eventually within seconds of being swaddled.  Here is the before and after. 

Then we started using his swaddle blankets that have velcro to help keep him swaddled.  They are kind of like straight jackets for babies.  Sometimes I feel bad velcroing him in, but then I remember he will wake himself up otherwise.  Of course within a day or two, he learned how to break free of those too, but it takes him longer. 

Jackson loves to play with daddy!  He also loves to cuddle with daddy!

He fell asleep holding Shawn's hands

Jackson loves sucking on his hands and bags of vegetables!

A week and a half ago Jackson moved into his own room.  He did pretty well his first night in his crib, but unfortunately mommy and daddy were so worried about him that we didn't sleep very well.  He now sleeps at least the first part of the night in his crib, and sometimes ends up in his swing in mommy and daddy's room when he won't go back to sleep, and always finishes his sleep cuddling with mommy in bed after daddy leaves for work. 

Jackson also still LOVES to wiggle and sing songs with mommy.  His favorites are "Mr. Sun" and "Popcorn Popping".  He always smiles and wiggles when mommy sings them to him.  Jackson also loves to be outside and to look around at everything.  Here are some more fun pictures of our little man at 3 months!

I was singing to him during this picture.  Look at his arms go!
