3 Months Old!

Christopher has started sleeping for 9 HOURS! He did it Sunday night and Monday night, but reverted to waking up once Tuesday night. Three nights in a row is supposed to be a new "routine." It was so nice being able to sleep straight through the night! Well, except for Sunday night when I was engorged for the first time ever! That didn't feel good at all! Every time I'd roll over on that side, I'd wake up. Uff da! Monday night was much better.

I can't believe that he's 3 months old today! Wow! Time is flying by so fast! Here are some recent pictures of him:



















































Even when he's crying, he's just so darned cute! Of course, I'm biased!

I learned over the weekend that Bank of America is hiring a part-time (20 hours) teller at the branch around the corner from my house. The best part is that they pay for childcare...even for part-timers! An added bonus is that they provide benefits for part-timers, too! I applied online on Monday.

I had a fun experience of babysitting a 15 month old in addition to having Christopher on Monday! A friend from church needed my help, so since I had no plans, I agreed. Not only did I have those two, I also had Brinkley who wanted my FULL attention, too. Uff da! I learned that Shad and I WILL NOT BE HAVING ANYMORE CHILDREN!!! This little girl, Maysen, was GO, GO, GO the entire 3 hours I had her!!! I don't see how mothers with more than one child do it! I told Shad to go ahead and have a vasectomy now so I can't change my mind! LOL! Of course, I'm joking...I think. On a serious note, though, I am perfectly content only having 1 child for now. I'm sure when Christopher get a little older, the baby bug will bite again. I'll just have to remember how rough the first several weeks have been when that time comes!

Milestones: Besides sleeping 9 hours at night starting Sunday night, Christopher laughed out loud for the first time late last week (12 weeks old)! He still hasn't rolled over at all, though. Maybe he needs some more tummy time/floor time.
