Scott's Spot: Three Months

Little Man is already three months (November 2nd) I have no idea how or when this happened. All I can say is that we are so blessed to have such a wonderful little boy. He is still not the best sleeper, but he is getting better, and we are adjusting! Asante started at a new daycare, that we all love! his teacher's name is Ms. Lena, and Asante can't get enough of her! As soon as we get there in the morning, and he hears her voice, he starts looking around for her and smiling. It melts my heart. Dropping him off is so much easier when I feel so good about who is watching him :-) One bad thing about daycare is that all the kids share germs! Asante has had a little bit of a stuffy nose for about a month, and has now developed a cough. Hopefully it goes away on it's own, and for now we are just watching to make sure it doesn't get worse!

We took him in to get weighed on the 6th, and he weighed 11lbs, 11oz. He is gaining weight, but not at the same rate he has been. Dr. Cosgrove suggested supplementing him with formula after I nurse him. I can't produce enough pumping during the day so we have been giving him half formula/half breast milk bottles during the day. Now when he is home we do the same. Some bottles we even do all formula. He is doing pretty well with formula; I think it is harder for me than him! His next appointment is December 4th, so hopefully he is back on track by then :-)

Asante is so alert, and he watches everything! He still loves his play mat and has started to really enjoy tummy time. He is so strong, and will sit there holding his head up for at least 20 minutes before getting tired! However, his all time favorite thing to do is watch football with Daddy! They have watched every K-State game together this year, and I guess it's good luck because K-State is undefeated!
