Griffin is 3 months!

Griffin is 3 months old! So what is he up to?

*He LOVES to suck on his hand! It is always the right one. Sometimes it is because he is hungry but he does it just for fun too.
* He goes to sleep about 9:30-10:30 and sleeps until about 6. Then he goes back to sleep until about 9. Not bad!
*He is slowly loosing his hair :(
*LOVES to take naps in his swing. This is the way he sleeps best during the day.
*Is content to hang out in his bouncer, under his play gym or just on a blanket looking around.
*Loves to hear his mammas voice and usually lights up when I start talking to him.
*Likes to have something up close to his face when he naps. 
*Is starting to reach for objects.
*He is cooing more and more and it is the best sound ever!
*Went on his first long car ride (to Colorado, 8 hours) and did SO good!
*Is SO close to laughing!
*Is ticklish on his thighs and belly.
*He is such a happy and content little guy. Only gets upset if he is hungry or sleepy.
*Still spits up but not nearly as bad as his brother did and it seems to be getting better.
*Wears mainly 3-6 month clothes and size 1 diapers although he could fit in 2's I am sure.
*Still nursing for the most part but gets a bottle of formula occasionally when we are out and about.
*Eats about 4 oz every 3-4 hours during the day.
*Prefers to be on the boppy for tummy time rather then just on the floor and holds his head up much higher this way.

Here are LOTS of pics of our little man from the last few weeks!










 Not the best pic but the little travel swing has been a life saver in the trailer!





 Practicing his karate moves!


 Such a happy boy!

Yup, love his fist!




Big blue eyes and crazy hair!

 This was taken last night. Such a sweet boy.




And these were taken today on his 3 month birthday!

We love this boy so much!

Hunting for Eggs

The weather was yucky the day before so I was worried how the egg hunt would go but it was perfect!



Griffin was zonked out for the first while.



He had a great time hunting for eggs!
 

Not sure whats up with this face. ha ha



A little more hunting......
 

And then he got to turn his eggs in for his loot!
 


Griffin got a fun basket too!
 


Hanging out with Madison.

We had a yummy lunch and then headed home for naps! We are very thankful that the Leishman's let us crash their Easter festivities each year. Its always a blast.

Coloring Eggs for the First Time!

Deegan got invited to go color easter eggs with the Leishmans! He loves going over there and talks about Maddie, "Emawee" and Joani all the time.



 Madison was nice enough to let Deegan "help" her. He loved it. I am sure she would love that I was taking pictures of her but hopefully she won't ever know. ha ha Love you Madi!



He had such a fun time! These eggs were for the Easter egg hunt the next day. Deegan went last year but wasn't quite big enough to grasp the concept. He loved it this year! Now for that post.....

Baby Animal Days

We finally made it to Baby Animal Days this year and let me say, it was crazy busy! I am still glad we went and Deegan loved all the animals. Aunt Coco and cousin Tay met us there too.




Deegan loved this donkey or whatever it was. :)



Deegan and the sheep!


He wasn't too sure about the pigs though!


Courtney tried to help but he still wasn't interested. At least she looks cute and is looking at the camera!


Deegan also really liked the goats! I bet this kid is about the same age as Deegan. Just a tad taller though! ha ha




Daddy helped him pet the cute calf.


I was so glad I caught this pic of the cow licking his face. So funny!


Deegan and Tayson waiting to hold a bunny.



Cute!


Tayson's bunny was super soft.


Cute little flower :)


They had the baby bears again this year and since they were younger (with fewer teeth:) they would let you pet them. They we were so fun to watch! Their fur was much more coarse then I thought it would be.

Griffin was there too but apparently I didn't take any pics of him :( Even though it was busy, we had fun and I am very glad we went! Eric also go the phone call saying he was being sent to Colorado for work while we were there.
