Caden turned 3 months old on the 21st. We are so grateful to God for blessing us with him. As you can see from these pictures, he's very healthy :) I took several pictures of him in his 3 month outfit and almost every one is blurry because this little guy is always moving! Here are some 3 month stats...
These are unofficial measurements done by us at home :) His next appointment with Dr Holly will be in September, so we'll have official numbers before his 4 month update. I'm expecting him to not only be off the preemie chart, but above average on the regular chart.
- weight-13 lbs
- height- about 22 1/2 inches long, he's a little to wiggly for exact measurements
- diapers- size 1 for a little bit longer
- clothes- 0-3 months and 3 months
- new skills- he's started being interested in toys and loves kicking a ball around with his feet, he continues to be very vocal and "talks" and laughs a lot.
- hobbies- playing on the activity mat, reading books, taking walks and car rides.
- feeding- he is doing about the same feeding schedule as last month. My best guess is he's taking between 4-5 ounces now. We're still working on a consistent routine.
Thankfully he loves to go for car rides.
He gets so excited when you put him in his car seat!
My cousins on my mom's side of the family hosted a shower for Caden last Saturday. They choose to have the shower after he'd arrived so they could all meet him. We waited until August so that they would be able to hold him. We have been so blessed by friends and family celebrating with us!
Caden wore his Royals outfit, but it didn't help them win!
Rock Chalk Jayhawk! We've been practicing already!
Don't you just love this face! So cute and ornery!
Well, August 1st we were given the all clear by the NICU doctors to take him out and about. We celebrated by going to Olive Garden for dinner that weekend. We also went to Sam's Club and Sunday School & Church.
We are so thankful he has stayed healthy!
Love hanging out in the bouncer!
Aunt Lesley came in town from Minnesota and this was her first time to hold Caden.
Snuggles with Uncle Michael :) I love this picture!!
This is the picture I took of Daddy reading Caden his Proverb for the day.
