Happy 3months to Henri



Wow, time flies. It's an easy thing to say, I know, but it's feeling very true! Henri came home on October 1 a very tiny baby, just a little over 5 pounds, and he now weighs around 13 pounds and barely looks like the same person. He's overcome all the concerns of early on and is growing and healthy in every way that he should be.





While he seems to have a somewhat serious nature, he's quick to smile, especially at his family. He coos and gurgles, his facial expressions showing that he's really trying to communicate.
His eyebrows go way up when he's excited and alert, he tends to furrow his eyebrows when he's tired or obviously thinking hard about something. He now sleeps ALL night long in his bassinet, eating at around 8pm and not eating again until after 6am. He wakes up a few times in the night, but easily goes back to sleep. He is awake more during the day and only sleeps about 30 minutes at a time if he's not being held. He prefers to cuddle for his daytime naps and most of the time we can oblige. He is as taken with Aaron and William as they are with him. He seems to never tire of their attention, and he's content for long periods to just sit where he can watch them. He also really likes to take a bath, he gets very relaxed and coos softly through the whole thing.






We are all madly in love with this little guy!

Madly in love is exactly right. He is a captivating fellow. Fits in with his brothers and stands out all at the same time. Happy quarter birthday, Henri.
