Jedidiah--- 3 Months


oh goodness- 3 months already! Jedidiah, you're looking more & more like a "baby" now and not a "newborn." You're always happy and smiling- such a joy to our family.



Height: 23 1/2 inches?

Weight: 15 pounds

Clothes: You wear 3-6 month/6 month old clothes. 
The pants are a little long but the onesies/pjs are perfect. 

Diapers: still size 2

Eating: You drink a bottle every 2-3 hours during the day for Oma. I feed you before I leave for work and then when I get home. You nurse every 2-3 hours. 

Sleeping: You still sleep in your bassiet. You go to bed between 10-11pm normally and then wake up between 6am-7am.

+You were dedicated at church. We had a big party for you after with our family. Such a blessed day to celebrate you & your relationship with God.

+you took your first trip to Chicago to the Navy Base.

+you LOVE attention. Amelia is always talking to you. It's so fun to see how much you love her.

+ we went to Eagle River with Grandpa & Nana. You loved the extra attention and enjoyed laying outside!

+we went to the Bookworm Gardens. Such a pretty place!

+you are ALWAYS smiling! The only time you're cranky is when you're hungry or tired, otherwise you're smiling.

+you love your family- you get so excited when mommy & daddy come home. and you're always watching Amelia to see what she's doing.

+you are so nosy! you love sitting up and looking around to see what's going on.

August Happenings

Hello August! The last official month of summer. I teach 4K and August means getting ready for the school year. I started a new job this school year. I still teach 4K but now teach at a new daycare center. It's an exciting/nervous time and I'm excited to see what the school year has in store for me!


Now onto our busy month...

+swimming lessons for Amelia ended this month. She's loved getting to go swimming every week in the "big" pool. It's so fun to see how much she enjoys the water!

+Jedidiah was dedicated at church. We had a big party after at our house. It was such a blessed day and we're so thankful for all of our family that was able to join us.

+we took a trip to the Navy base in Chicago!

+We took a trip to the Bookworm gardens. It's this cute little children's botanical gardens based on different stories. Amelia loves going!

+we enjoyed trips to the Farmer's Market--> corn on the cob. balloon animals. cinnamon rolls. fresh veggies.

+many trips to library class! Amelia loves getting to sing songs, listen to stories and watch puppet shows. We've been taking Jedidiah to a "baby" class where we sing songs and they play with toys.

+we enjoyed a weekend getaway with Paul & Judy (Brad's dad.) They rented a cottage for a week and we were able to go up for a night. We enjoyed swimming, fishing, and relaxing. Such a fun time!

+Amelia had a play date with a friend from daycare! She loved getting to see Ethan and misses him every day. Such a blessing they don't live too far and we're able to have playdates.


August has been a great month. Such a perfect "end" to summer. But September brings the beginning of school and (soon!) the beginning of fall.
