1 Year Later

Dear my sweet Nolan,

Exactly 1 year ago today I found out that you were already growing inside of me. As soon as I saw that positive test my heart start beating faster with excitement, anticipation, and joy! I couldn't wait for your Daddy to get home from work to tell him the good news. As soon as I told him he was so excited! My journey to your birth was fairly easy- minus the morning sickness for the first 12 weeks- but it was all worth it!

The day you were born was one of the happiest days of my life. I couldn't get enough of just staring at your sweet little face and just holding you all day. I also loved watching your Daddy interact with you and help take care of you, he is an amazing man and we are both so blessed to have him.

Now, at 3 months old, you're developing your little personality so much already! You love smiling at Mommy and Daddy, laughing at your doggies, and talk our ears off! I'm looking forward to watching you change and develop even more during the first year of your life.

My dear baby, my life has just improved and been filled with so much more joy now that you're in it. I absolutely love being your Mommy and wouldn't change it for anything.

I love you!

Mommy

Nolan- 3 Months

Weight: 15.6 pounds (according to our home scale)

Likes:
- Talking! This kid will talk your ear off when he has something to say. Most mornings he'll wake up and talk to himself for 30-45 minutes then go back to sleep, it's hilarious!
- His playmats. He's really starting to reach for things and focus on his toys that dangle.
- Chewing on his hands. I'm not sure if teething is starting but he chomps on his fists alllll day long.
- The song "You are my Sunshine". If he's upset and I sing that to him it usually makes it better.

Dislikes:
- Getting dressed. He's decided he doesn't like clothes going over his head and cries most mornings when I dress him.
- Getting out of the bath. He loves his bath and splashing and cries every time I take him out.
