3 Months and Daycare update!

First time in his saucer and he loved it!

Happy to be 3 Months Old!

Nolan decided he wanted to watch TV at 4 am rather than go back to sleep!

Nolan had a very busy week at daycare! For the most part he did very good. His first day was pretty tough, but he had lots to get used to. The rest of the week got better and I think he figured out his new routine. Luckily for us Nolan's exhaustion from daycare gave us a few uninterrupted nights. Monday and Tuesday nights he slept over 12 hours straight! He was still sleeping when I left for work, so I was sad I couldn't say goodbye to him, but I think it was easier for me that way. I had no idea how hard it would be to go back to work, and how much I would miss him! Nolan also made his first art project at daycare this week. He made a turkey made out of his hands and foot. I was so excited to get it, and even though I know he didn't do much to make it I was still so proud of him! It turned out so great. And as noted in the title, Nolan did turn 3 months on Saturday. Our little peanut is right on track and started wearing his 3-6 months clothes last week. I am pretty sure he won't be one of those kids that ever wears bigger sizes for his age! For Nolan's first Thanksgiving we will be starting out at my mom's house then off to Danny's parent's house and we are looking forward to it. Nolan will also get to meet some family members on both sides, so he will have a pretty big day too! Hope everyone enjoys their Thanksgiving!

Still cute even with a little spit up on his shirt

I cannot believe my maternity leave is coming to an end. Everyone told me it would go by fast, but I had no idea how fast! It will be very hard not being with Nolan all day, but it will be good for both of us. I am very thankful to be bringing him to my aunt Holly's for daycare. At least I know he is in good hands and will be loved very much! I think he will have fun watching all the other kids play and he will have fun interacting with them too. On our last post I said that Nolan was not taking his Prevacid very well, but I am happy to say that he has learned to like it and is now taking it very well! So this means he is spitting up less and is not as fussy after feedings. Woohoo! Our little man is still as smiley and talkative as ever. He is getting louder and I think he is figuring out that it is him that is making those noises. We have to laugh at him though, because he has started to fake cry. He was whining because he was hungry while Danny was holding him and I looked at him and held his bottle and kind of made fun of his crying and then he began to laugh and cry at the same time. I wish we could have taped it because it was so funny! I guess you had to be there. My poor man also got his first bandaids the other day. His horrible mother cut him while cutting his fingernails and made him bleed. We just got a new nail clipper and it was so sharp. I felt so bad, but it did not even phase him. I had to put band aids on because it would not quit bleeding and it got all over his outfit. It looked a lot worse than it really was.

Trick or Treat!

For Halloween Nolan was the cutest peapod there ever was, but was not a fan of the costume. He did not have enough room to kick his little legs around in there, but had a good day overall! To update from the last post, we did try Nutramigen over the weekend, but Nolan wanted nothing to do with it! He is pretty stubborn and set in his ways, and now is apparently a picky eater too. I don't blame him though, the stuff does not smell very good at all! I mixed it with his soy formula and he still didn't really drink it. Finally by Sunday I gave him his regular bottle again so he wouldn't starve. As expensive as the formula is, I was really hoping he would like so he would feel better. So now we are trying Prevacid for his acid reflux. I gave him his first dose today and the little stinker kept spiting it out while he smiled and laughed at me like it was some kind of game for him not to take it. Tomorrow I will have to try to put it in an ounce of his formula so he will take it and hopefully feel better soon. Enjoy the Halloween pics
