The McCay Twins +1!

feeding the baby

My sister and I talk all the time. Whenever she calls and asks what I am doing, my normal response is "feeding the baby" which she laughs at.

We went to a friends farewell party last week. And this was the only picture I was in. Figures...

He does love this set up though.

Noah 3 months

Noah is 3 months old and getting so animated! I cannot believe how much he has grown. Amazing.

He is really sleeping well now. Most nights he sleeps 10-11 hours. Sometimes he sneaks in his 4am feeding.

He still hates the car. I wish he would get over that because we are a family on the go!

He loves his snuggle time in the am with me. If he wakes up at 6 or 7 he wants to go right back to sleep after he nurses and I love that time snuggling with him. I did that with the girls too (out of desperation for sleep) and they have always been late sleepers. Maybe I am on to something?

He is still a belly sleeper, and likes his swing a little more now. And he takes a good nap during the day which lets me get dinner done. I appreciate that.

His favorite thing right now is his bath. Loves it. The pool he could live without but he gets all excited when we sees the water. Just like his sisters.

He smiles all the time now. It kills me when it is the 4am feeding or his nighttime feeding and he will look up at me and just give me this huge grin. Which makes me smile. Which makes him smile more. I hate it, but I love it.

Pajama Day

We have pajama day a lot. The girls can not be in the house and be in regular clothes. But this one day it was planned because it was nice and rainy outside. The perfect day to stay comfy and watch movies. Noah joined us.

Monkey see...

Matt walked into the bathroom one night and the girls were playing "babies" while taking a bath. This is a common game for them. When I was pregnant, they were often seen walking around with a doll under their shirt. But they will swap up, one being the baby and one being the mommy.

On this one occasion, I heard Matt yell out "NO!" and then walked out of the bathroom and told me to deal with "my children". Ha.

Turns out one child was being cradled by the other and the "baby" was nursing. For real. Guess thats an issue for the actual mommy to handle.

I talked to them about it and told them that it was only for real mommies and real babies.

They have done it again a few times, and when I ask what they are doing, they quickly respond that they are only sucking on each others shoulders, and not doing it for real. Good to know.

Sweet Big Sisters

The girls are constantly asking to hold Noah. Hannah gets really mad if she doesnt get enough time with him. It is so not fair, according to her, that I get to hold him all the time - even if I am just having to nurse him. Leah loves her time with him, but eventually she will say that she is tired of being stuck. They are so sweet to him though.
