13 weeks

Barret is exactly 3 months old now!!! exactly 3 months ago yesterday, he was born! Time is moving too quickly. He is already so very big! He is wearing 6 month clothes now! it is amazing.

He is getting so strong as well...as illustrated in the first photo, he can hold his head up all by himself. Travis loves to lay on his back and "help" Barret hold up his head by keeping his arms under him. Barret loves to do this, but can't seem to keep his arms under himself.

Also regarding this photo...I realized at around 7:30 that I hadn't gotten Barret's 13 week photo yet. I religiously take photos of him every Wednesday. So I grabbed the camera and asked Travis to come outside with me to take a few shots. He didn't want to because the neighbors would see us having a photoshoot out in the front yard. Well....look at him on the grass for all the world to see. It looks to me that he got over that concern quickly! What he won't do for our boy!

Barret now recognizes us! It is so sweet, whenever he sees our faces, he smiles hugely! It is so wonderful to see that he knows us! The other night at 3:00 am, I was feeding him. He was still in that asleep but hungry mode. He was nursing and all of the sudden he opened his eyes, saw me, pulled away and gave me the biggest smile...like he was surprised that I was there! too sweet.

I just want to cherish every moment with him. He is growing so fast, I am having a hard time remembering all of the small things like this.

happy 3 month birthday sweet boy!
