Levi is Three Months Old!


Age of Baby: 3 months

Size of Baby:
  • Weight: 14 lbs 9 oz (down to the 62nd percentile), +14 oz from last month
  • Length: 23.5 inches (down to the 20th percentile), +1 inches from last month
  • Head circumference: not measured
Levi has still been wearing a size 1 diaper, though only to use them up, as they were getting a bit snug! He was wearing 0-3 month clothes, but those will soon be added to the donation box! He wears a size 2 shoe.

Immunizations:
  • None
Doctor's Visit Summary:

No visit this month.

Picture of Baby:

Here is Levi's 3-month picture in the 12-month onesie. His eyes are still blue at this point. He's lost most of his hair up top, but not from the back.


And here is a comparison of all four at three months, just for fun. I would have to say he's looking more and more like Noah's little twin! He definitely has his size! Haha! He weighed in at just one ounce less than Noah at this point, but 1/2" shorter, too. Amos was a full 2 pounds smaller and Ethan was in the middle of the pack.



Accomplishments this month:
  • Laughing
  • Rolling from back to side
  • First movie in the theater
  • His first Christmas!
  • First road trip
  • Met more cousins and uncles
  • First day trip to Biltmore
Levi has continued to be a pretty great baby. He loves to laugh, especially if he hears me do it. And just as his brothers before him, he loves getting naked. He can't stop smiling once you start taking his clothes off to change his diaper, or put on his jammies! He also loves chewing on his hands. You would think he's starving the way he gnaws away at them all the time. Seriously, kid, I feed you. He can almost roll from his back to his belly now. He gets to his side, then stays there, instead of rolling all the way over. It won't be long.
Levi is still setting all kinds of records as the 4th child. Surprise, surprise! He went to see a movie in the theater for the very first time. We all enjoyed The Last Jedi, but I'm hoping that the fact that he nursed, then slept through the entire movie is no indication of his future feelings towards Star Wars. Ha! The reclining seats with foot rests were a must with a little one in tow.

After enjoying his first Christmas at home, Levi was able to meet four more of his cousins (on the Seeley side) when he took his first road trip! It was quite the trip, too. We made the approximate 6-hour trip to the East Coast to visit my sister and her crew first. From there, we headed back west to Josh's parent's house, an approximate 7-hour trip. Both of these trips were, of course, made longer due to a baby wanting to eat every 2-3 hours. In Ohio, Levi met his Uncle Jared, who flew in from Phoenix, and his Uncle Aaron, his wife, Dena, and their four kids! It was a pretty quick trip and we were back home to Tennessee in less than a week. Levi did a pretty great job traveling though! He only fussed when it was time to eat and slept most of the way otherwise!

Levi made his first trip to Biltmore with us on a very cold day in January! He rode in the Ergo for the house tour and managed to sleep through all of that, too. Ha! Someday he will be awake and appreciate it more. ;) All of the boys loved seeing all of the Christmas trees and lights. It was truly beautiful!

I know I said this last month, but hopefully I'll get back on track and post his 4-month update in a more timely manner! We are talking about the fourth child here though. He should just be happy I'm posting at all, right? ;) I realize this is wishful thinking with Ethan's 9th birthday (!!!) creeping up on me now and Valentine's Day just around the corner! Seriously, where it 2018 going already?!?
