3 Months Old! Dec 3

Would ya just LOOK at this sweet face!?!?! Can't believe it's been 3 months. I just really CAN'T!!!
Here's a few things about our little Crewzer: 
- His cheeks are almost always covered in either bronzer or sparkly lipgloss. I can't get enough of them!
- He LOVES hearing the motor in the car. Always shuts him right up! All boy. 
 - When he's really excited, he breathes, squeals, and smiles all at the same time... sounds like a raptor. 
- He's been trying SO hard to laugh.. but all that really comes out are coughs. His FIRST real laugh on the DAY he turned 3 months!
- We call his chubby cheeks his "kickstands" because they help keep up his head. 
- He is SUPER cuddly. Everyone says that... not just me!
- When ya hold him, he likes to scratch off all your moles on your arms with his SUPER sharp fingernails that I am always deathly scared to trim. 
- Every morning, he doesn't really cry when he wakes up, but he yells. And he loves to pick up his legs and slam them against the mattress. SOO funny!
- My FAVORITE thing ever is when he locks eyes with mine, stares deep into my soul, and then flashes me thee biggest smile ever. Totally melts my heart!!!
- Moved up to size 3 diapers at 3.5 months old!
- Weighs 15 lbs now! We are wayyy past chubby!
- Discovered his tongue at 13 weeks. 
- He SORTA rolled over at 14 weeks.. but it may have been a fluke. I think he just really really hates his tummy. 
- HATES his hats! Better get used to it, Buster. Ya live in IDAHO!
- YAY for sleeping through the night! He went from about midnight to 6:45 AM when he turned 12 weeks. I've since put him on a different sleep schedule. Now he goes to bed at 9:30 or 10 and sleeps till 4 or so, then back to bed till 7, then back to bed till 9! 
- Pants are TOOO small :( Growing out of 3-6 mo! I can't keep clothes on this kid!
This month we also got to visit with a lot of our friends and family. We went to Utah to see the Nelson's and I got to go to a Jazz game while Crewzer stayed home with Gramma Nelson. The pups think they're babies. Or maybe...... the baby thinks he's a pup!?! Crew and I also love hanging out with Lindsey and Andi! We got to see my childhood friend, Kara, and her family! Her little guy is 9 months, and ours is 3, but they're the same size. HA!
And I went black friday shopping with my mom and sisters! Daddy stayed home with Crewzer.
We don't have our own house this Christmas, but I wanted to still put up our tree :) So excited for the holidays with our little babe!

2 Months Old! Nov 3

I blinked and just like that.. he's already two months old!!! I wish blogger had emojis. 
He is so much fun and slowly starting to sleep more. I love his little bird belly he's getting. He's stealing hearts left and right with his little bald head, pouty lips, and ginormous feet. His dad and I are officially obsessed! He's not quite as fragile and it just feels natural to love on him 24/7. 
Crew is such a chill little baby. He loves to hang out on his back on the floor and inspect the door frames, trim, can lights, wall paint, etc. It's hilarious. We're convinced he'll grow up to be an architect :) I just love that he is so content hanging out on the ground while I get to shower, or eat, or just give my poor back a break! He is SURE getting porky but we LOVE it. He went to size 2 diapers at 2 months old!! I've always wanted a chubby baby, and he is WELL on his way there. 
He really smiled for the first time at about 5 weeks old. I thought it was thee cutest thing I had ever seen. 
He LOVED shopping with his Aunt Jeni and cousin Callie! He likes wearing black nike socks to church... just like Dad. Grandma Furniss LOVES little Crewzer. She gives him almost as many kisses as I do. He still has a HUGE drinking problem... #milkdrunk. And I LOVE dressing this boy! It's way more fun than I thought it would be. He is SO alert and loves new sounds. 
One Sunday afternoon, he was being SO cute and smiley.. we caught it on video... but Alli caught US on camera too! Can't get enough of those big smiles! Mom and dad were working hard for them on 10-26-14.
One night... I needed some space for just 10 minutes! Jaren has been quite masterful at getting him to sleep when I'm at my breaking point. The next morning, I found his huge footprints embedded in the carpet. FUNNY!
Oh and he's having lots of blow outs!!! One time, he had one IN OUR BED! Big no-no. He doesn't lay by us anymore. And he always has them in the middle of sacrament meeting. Always. Maybe its the organ music or something... so relaxing. This pic of one may just be the worst I've seen.
Not a big fan of tummy time... but still so cute. Livvie LOVES Crew. She always kisses him and tries to pick him up. She always says that she wants him to stay little and cute forever and ever. I have to really watch her cuz sometimes she'll just pick him up! And he's almost as big as she is!
Crew reminds me so much of Jaren... especially when they both make the exact same faces. 
At his 2 month check up he weighed 12 lb. 15 oz. He's 65% for weight and 85% for height. Way to go, buddy! He also coo'd and goo-goo'd at the docs and nurses through his whole appointment. So much that I actually couldn't even hear what they were saying and they had to keep repeating 
themselves. Ahh I was dying, so adorable. He is a cutie. I think we'll keep him.
