Celebrate good times!

Ok, folks, we have officially reached the halfway mark.  The state of Utah, where Joshua was born, requires a six month waiting period until adoptions are finalized.  Today Joshua is three months old, so he's halfway to ours legally!  He has given us a FANTASTIC three month present.  For the past three nights, he has slept all the way through the night- one sleep was 8 hrs. 42 min., the next was 9 hrs. 9 min., and last night was 9 hrs. 13 min.  It's amazing how functional we both become when we've had enough sleep.  One month ago, I noted in his baby book that he was just moving toward 3 hours of sleep at a time during the night.  Way to go, little one.  Mommy and Daddy thank you profusely.

According to my yard stick and my home scale, (the scale is a bit hit or miss with his little body), Joshua is now 20 inches long and weighs about 8 lb. 2 oz.  He's really close to having doubled his weight.  Huzzah!!

Here's our running total:
1 month= 5 lb. 10.7 oz
2 months= 6 lb. 15 oz.
3 months= (I think we're at) 8 lb 2 oz.

And with that, I have to run.  Little boy is fighting me on sleeping during the day and is now awake again... after a whopping 10 minutes. sigh.  ooop- just kidding.  False alarm.  He's settled back down.  Phew.  Love to all of you!

That's his "I'm looking at my toy Eeyore that Mommy is holding" smile.



So tiny!

He has only one or two more wearings of these cute jammies before he's too big for them.
