Love my little man!

Jacob - TWO months old (almost THREE!)
I can't believe my little baby is almost THREE months old already! Where is time going? It's slightly freaking me out. I don't like how fast it's all going. Tomorrow he will be 11 weeks. He gets more amazing as the days pass. I have NEVER loved anyone like this. He melts my heart.
He changes by the day and seems to get more interactive, which is amazing. I love watching him learn new things and explore the world around him. Each smile and coo makes me tear up. We have "mommy and me time" everyday a few times a day. It's where I put him on a blanket and we just look at each other and talk. He smiles up and me and just talks and talks! It's amazing. I catch myself tearing up every time. It amazes me that he's mine. ALL MINE! Well, and Alex's too...I guess I will share.
Here's a few things that's going on with my pumpkin:

Here's a few things that's going on with my pumpkin:
- You are still in size two diapers. You wear Seventh Generation and they seem to work great for us. You haven't had an "accident" in awhile.
- You love your swing and nap in it during the day. I tried to put you in your crib for naps, but you would wake up after 30 minutes every time, without fail. It's like you had an internal alarm clock that told you to wake up. I put you back in your swing and your naps range anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour and a half.
- You still take a bottle every night from your daddy. I will pump in the morning and at 9:30 every night we give you a bottle. You love it.
- You LOVE bath time! We were giving you a bath in the kitchen, with your tub on the counter, but you like to splash so much, that we had to move your tub into the big tub.
- You are in love with your bouncy chair. You will sit in it and talk to the little frog (it's actually a gecko, but mommy didn't realize that until daddy pointed it out). You smile and coo for 20-30 minutes!
- You are so strong. You love to stand up and sometimes you won't bend your legs because you just want to stand.
- You love your daddy so much. When he gets home from work, no matter what you're doing, you will stop to say hello with a big smile.
- You are a great sleeper at night. You will sleep from 10pm-4am almost every night. You will go back down from 2-3 more hours.
- You sleep in your "yellow thing" next to mommy on the couch. We tried to put you in your room last Monday, but you woke up at 2am screaming. You were so upset. Mommy isn't ready for you to move into your room either. Eventually we will be though.
- You're not a big fan of your carseat. I think you hate being strapped down and confined.
- You are wearing all different sizes right now. You are getting too long for your 3-6 month footed pjs. We put you in your 6-9 month ones and you seem happier. I can't believe how long you are! You still fit in 0-3 month clothes though too, it just depends on the brand and what it is.
- You noticed your toes for the first time a couple days ago. I had you sitting on my check and you would wiggle your toes and you even tried to reach for them. You talked to them too. You also started to look at your hands more. You always have them in your mouth.
- You recently discovered that you have a tongue to stick out and will sometimes smile and stick your tongue out.
I say this every time, but we really do love you more each day. Even when we don't think it's possible to love you more, we do.
