Ned is three months!

Baby Ned is three months old! Actually, a little closer to four at this point. He is rolling, smiling and grabbing things. When I put him down on his mat to play he's somehow magically not always in the exact same spot when I go back to get him. He's happy to hang out in his Jumperoo and Bouncer as long as someone is nearby to watch. We've got bedtime moved up to 9:00 p.m. and he still sleeps swaddled and in our bedroom, but we are working on napping in the sleep sack and in his crib. The "big boys" LOVE him and JC is always checking on him and asking where "Nedders" is and "What's he DOing?" Ned really only gets fussy when he is tired or hungry or when we stop at a red light in the car. He HATES red lights!

Side note: The white roses were from Ned's baptism, and the larger arrangement was from our 10th wedding anniversary -- Clay recreated my wedding bouquet. Big month around here!
