Ryder's 3rd month has been so much fun with his cute little smile and giggles we get all the time! He has really started to show expression towards us, and it makes us smile every time. I love looking down at him and seeing him just smiling away.
Ryder's favorite part of the day is when we get home from the office and he can just stretch out at home. We turn his t.v. on above his changing table, get him stripped down to his diaper, and just let him hang out for a little while. He's a pretty big fan of getting lotion at this time too! He loves to squeal at the top of his lungs to show us how happy he is. During this time his Daddy and I will get into our p.j.'s and just hang out with Ryder in his room. We love to sing "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" with him as it plays on his mobile. Ryder absolutely loved his mobile that went with his crib bedding, but it broke. Daddy quickly jumped on the internet and found a Philly Phanatic one. It's pretty tacky and doesn't match anything in his room, but who cares because it keeps the boys happy!
Ryder has also started to do some tummy time. It doesn't last too long because he can't lift his head up yet, but the doctor said it is good for him. He is getting good at holding his head up when we are holding him though. I think he'll be there by the four month update.
We are really looking forward to Ryder's fourth month with all the holidays rapidly approaching. Ryder gets to see all four of his uncles in the next day!!! He needs that with all the woman he has in his life. They'll teach him to be tough!
The Stats: The little man doesn't go to the doctor this month, but I know he's still growing rapidly. When comparing with all the other little babies we know around his age he seems to be the biggest and the youngest... not sure if that's a good combo! The other day I weighed myself and then weighed myself with him and it was exactly 15 pounds more. So i'd venture to say he is about that weight... i'm sure it's not too accurate, but it shows how much he's growing.
What new happened: Ryder started his cerceal. He eats about twenty spoonfuls every night. It makes quite a mess, but he seems to love it. Another new thing is Ryder sleeping through the night. I think this started to happen because he has a really full belly at night, but he sleeps from around 7pm until 4ish every night. He eats then adn falls right back asleep. Sometimes he'll sleep a little later, but then doesn't want to go back down so i'd rather just get up at four.
Bottles: Ryder is still only drinking 5 ounces in his bottles. Sometimes he might need more, but other times he wants less so we just stick with that.
Diapers: Ryder is in size 2 diapers and slowly creeping up to the size 3.
Clothes: Ryder is growing out of his 6 months stuff really quick and all of his 9 month stuff fits. We have already put away boxes of clothes that don't fit anymore. It's so sad how quickly he went through them all.
That is about all for now. Ryder is waking up from his nap. We are heading to Pennsylvania for Turkey Day to enjoy some time with Daddy's side of the family. We hope everyone enjoys the upcoming holidays!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Love Always,
The Lutz's
