Reid you are three months old today

I can not begin to tell you Reid how much I love you!! You have completely changed my life. I never knew I could love someone as much as you. I knew I loved you, but I don't think I knew completely how much until last week when you were chocking and I thought you were going to die. It scared me so bad and as I rushed you to the ER I just kept praying to God to let you be ok. I was mad at myself for not knowing how to suction your nose and mouth out. Why didn't I learn this before a tragedy almost happened. I can promise you this I know how to properly suction you now. You are three months old today and you are growing so fast. One of the names I have for you is "Sweet Cheeks" you have the cutest cheeks that I have ever seen. You continue to be a very good baby and you do not fuss much. If you are crying you either are hungry, wet, poo poo diaper or fighting sleep.  I am enjoying staying home with you every day and we continue to have the best time.  Here are some of the things you are up to at 3 months:

you are sucking on your hands
you are grabbing your blanket with your hands and sticking the blanket in your mouth
you track mama and daddy as we walk past you sometimes when you are upset you only want mama to hold you (o how that makes my day)
you continue to sleep through the night (which really makes me happy)
you eat every 4 hours during the day and you are eating 6 oz each time we have started giving you an 8 oz bottle before bed at night we will try cereal in another couple of weeks
we were preparing for Hurricane Ida two days before your 3 month birthday (turns out the storm could not stay together and was down graded to tropical storm Ida) schools were closed and we had lots of rain and wind, but everyone stayed safe
you will sometimes coo at daddy and when he coo's back at you; you will in turn do it back at him...
My most favorite thing you do right now is you are laughing out loud; mostly at your daddy. You seem to think that he is really funny and when I hear you laugh back at him it just tickles me so much.

You are going to see all of your cousins in the next two weeks as you take your first trip to Mimi's and Grand daddy's and to Kay-K and Pop's. We will be going to North MS and TN for your very first Thanksgiving. I think I need to start packing your stuff up now. I am always afraid I am going to forget something you will need.

We did a video of you waking up in the morning. Look as soon as the video starts you have the biggest smile on your face. You are so happy in the mornings when you see your mama and daddy.



I didn't know Justin recorded the whole diaper change. I thought he was just recording his face.
