Cold while attending baby

You know I hate complaining but catching a cold is the worst thing nursing with a small baby. This is the 2nd cold that I´ve had since Patrick was born. Its tough because not only does my dear lil one not have a strong immune system yet...but I´m nursing and the only one that takes care of him. Christian helps when he can, but stays pretty busy studying, work, church calling, etc. So most of the time until around 10pm we (Patrick and I) hang out. Its fun...but really tough being sick.

So, Patrick is now laughing more...not just a cute squeal. He lets it all out when I hide behind a piece of fabric and say "Boo!" He also laughs when we play in front of the mirror. His reflection totally fasinates him.

Anyways other than that like is pretty normal.

3 Months!

Well, he´s definately the CUTEST lil boy! Ok, so I´ve been soooooooo out of the blogging world. I´m back. Honestly, the first 3 months were tough. Patrick was really really really colicky at the beginning. But now, he´s the cuteset funniest flirty lil boy. We LOVE playing. He´s quite a playful guy. Now he only cries when he´s tired or hungry or wants attention and wants to play. He´s a very good boy and now we are actually able to get things done...a bit slower than before, but by the time the end of the day gets here...we´ve finally made the bed. :) He laughs and smiles. He´s quite a flirty lil boy. You only have to smile at him and he gets all excited and smiles back...its doesn´t matter who you are...he loves smiling at people when they smile at him. The other day I heard his first REAL giggle. It wasn´t just a squeal...but a real Ha Ha Ha! It was soooo cute! We are STILL struggling with sleeping through the night...though he has gotten better. Now he´ll sleep about 4-4.5 hours alone and the we are back to every 2-2.5 hours at night. He loves to eat. He´s grown sooooo much that he´s only 3 months old, but he where´s clothes of 6-9 months and is about to grow out of them. I just LOVE being a mom! Its sooooo much fun...a lot of work, but I love it.
