3 months already?

its kinda hard to believe he's already 3 months old. because its flown by in the blink of an eye. i *LOVE* this age. the snuggles, the falling asleep on my chest, the smiles, the NOTTALKINGBACK part. i mean, just look at this guy! how can you not melt right?
he is SUCH a happy baby! definitely my chillaxed one. he loves to play under his jungle gym, or in his crib and watch his musical mobile. he loves the swing, even if tucker gives him an under doggy. *tuckerrrrr*
he is enjoying tummy time more (before he would just lay his head down) and is strengthening his neck and back. he's almost rolling over, he rolls to his side now. he discovered his voice and is cooing and singing like crazy! after his naps i'll go into my room (his crib is in there) and he's just talking away. and then gives me big smiles when he's sees me. *ilovehim*
he's sleeping 6-7 hour stretches at night like a good boy. he's just so easy. i'm not sure if its because he's #3, but i think he kind of has to be. and honestly, sometimes i forget he's there. is that awful? its kinda nice really. because let me tell you, i've paid my dues. i earned this baby. elliana was collicky and super fussy for like the first year of her life, although i don't tell her that. she always asks if she was a good baby like toby and i say, "of course, you were mama's firstborn, i loved you first."
tucker just adores his baby brother. he loves him loud and rough and fast, just like tucker. and crazy enough, toby loves it. he lights up when tucker is around. its adorable. i know these two are probably gonna give me a run for my money in a year or two. so i'm super enjoying the non-mobility (so far) and quietness of my little tobykins. toby roby. *lookatthosecheeks*
elliana was begging me to feed toby a bottle. she has been such a good helper. she'll come home from school and say, "can i hold toby? i haven't seen him ALL DAY!" both the kids come up to constantly and kiss him on the head. little toby is so very loved. and its so easy to love him. my easiest, mellowist, happiest baby by far. i've been reading my past journal and blog posts about when tucker was this age, and he was pretty happy too. i guess that's how it is, mellow happy babies=wild and crazy toddlers? hmmmm, i see how it is.
so i will enjoy this moment. even if the dishes are piled up, laundry is piled up, toys are piled up. because my heart is piled up with love for this little guy.
wuv you tobykins. <3
