1. Age this week? 12 weeks!!!

2. Achievements/happy moments from the week? He's laughing a lot more and seems much more Interested in what's going on around him. He's also becoming much more vocal.

3. Challenges? Not really. Knock on wood. Allll the wood.

4. How are the adults doing? We're doing well. We are all going to Long Island this weekend for a funeral (we are in PA) so that should be interesting with a baby!

5. Got a cute pic from this week to share? I was playing around with the Prisma app and made this:

QOTW: I miss my grandparents most of all. I wish they could have met Tommy.

1. 15 weeks! I can't believe he'll be 4 months 2 weeks from Saturday. Eeeek!

2. He's been nursing without the nipple shield since last week. Huge win! He's a really happy baby and loves giving me lots and lots of smiles.

3. He's been really congested and doesn't seem to eating as much as usual.

4. All right. Exhausted... lots going on with the older boys' birthdays and planning to visit family over spring break.

QOTW: without a doubt going to my grandparents summer houses.

PDQ... will poof!
My bald boy!

Check in:

1. Age this week? 12 weeks

2. Achievements/happy moments from the week? Pretty sure I heard a real laugh from her yesterday!! She's also holding her head up super high during tummy time now.

3. Challenges? She can still be a screamer at times, for no good reason at all. It's happened twice while trying to run errands and it totally sucks!

4. How are the adults doing? Doing good! I'm back to work and getting back on schedule.

Thank you! Your little guy is adorable!! I'm so jealous of everyone who gets to dress their kiddos in sweaters, my baby always seems hot so all of her fleece pjs and sweaters I bought have not been worn at all! 😒

Same!! Tommy runs hot just like me. He's been in lightweight sleepers ever since we got out of NB sizes. It's especially fun when I'm wearing him at the store, I can't tell who's sweating onto whom when I take him out of the carrier. 😳

At least when I get mom shamed for not putting a hat on his giant head I KNOW that he's warm enough without

4 weeks old

Starting to be more alert and checking things out.

Reflux is still killing us. Spit up constantly. All over. In pain after every feed. We just switched to a ppi med and hope it starts working soon.

We're tired but ok.

QOTW: I miss my best friend living so close. It's hard to find time to catch up very often and I don't get to see her but once every year or so.
