Our tall and slender 11-week-old
We went to our 3-month check-up on Tuesday, since we’ll be out of town for Jacob’s “real” 3-month birthday. Here are the stats:
Age: 2 months 15 days
Height: 25 inches (63.5 cm) – 93 %
Weight: 12 lb 14 oz (5.9 kg) – 59 %
Head Circumference: 41 cm – 59 %
This weekend we’re heading to Ohio to visit Grandma Carol, Grandpa Ron, Aunt Renee, and Uncle Jared. It’ll be a shorter flight than our last cross-country trip, so I think we’ll be fine. After our visit there, we’ll spend some time at the Florida house with (hopefully) some warm weather!
Some highlights of the 11th week:

December 4
The toy bears have been the biggest hit these days:

December 4
We watched the first half of the USC football game against their rival, UCLA. My parents both went to UCLA, but I don’t think there’s any chance they could ever sneak a Bruins outfit on their grandson!

December 6 – matching USC gear (#32, to celebrate OJ’s recent media appearance, haha)


December 7 – First snow flurries in New York

December 7 – A Sunday stroll through the Union Square holiday market

December 11 – Tummy Time

December 11 – This may look uncomfortable, but Jax’s favorite position is to have his head back at 90 degrees. He also loves to be held, and so I’m getting better at doing many tasks with just one hand!

I picked up the wall calendar in Paris, at a store called “Nature et Découvertes.” It’s a chain, so easy to find if you’re in France, which sadly none of us are! It’s a great store for educational baby and kid stuff. Jax loves to look at the tree on it.
If anyone out there is interested, it looks like maybe you can buy it online and have it shipped:

He has the most fantastic hair. I can’t wait to see what it grows into as he gets older. And, of course, you look fabulous!

His smile while playing in his chair is priceless. And may I say how fantastic you are looking 2.5 months post partum!

He’s growing up so fast! I love all of his spiky hair- so cute. I tagged you if you have the chance and want to play.
