This holiday season was by far the most fun, but most chaotic one! We have had lots of family come visit us and come meet our new little guy. It was fun having Thanksgiving with lots of family and a new little guy!



Baby: Cole Isaac



Birthday: August 14, 2015



Age: Three Months




Weight: 11 lbs 13 oz



Height 23 1/2 inches long




Sleep: Sleeping through the night still! Most of the time bedtime is 9:30 and little man will sleep till anywhere between 5:30/6 and then go back to sleep for about another 3-4 hours. Same schedule as last month. Gets up and eats, plays and hangs and then its back down for another nap. Usually 2 hours after initial wake up.




Bedtime: 9:30




Favorite Toy: anything that makes noise and lights up




Clothes Size: NB and 0/3 months




Diaper Size: Size 1



Milestones Reached: Hands in mouth has been the biggest one, but we are also reaching and grabbing for things too


Firsts:
*Drooling lots
*Chewing on hands
*Grabbing on to things
*Sitting in the bumbo
*Nursing without a shield (Yay!!)
*Giggling
*First Thanksgiving
*First trip to Disney



Best Mood: Mornings! You are really happy when you wake up and usually stay happy till evening time and then we fall apart. Rough life I tell ya!


Best Moments: Getting to meet Great Grandma Foltz! Grandma Foltz was here for several weeks and she got lots of snuggles! You also got to meet Uncle Dick and Aunt Tammy. They all just loved you to pieces. We got to do Disney at Christmas time and that was a blast! You did so well. You just hung out and took it all in, and you mastered the night in the hotel like no ones business. Thanksgiving was also lots of fun too! I dont know if you categorize this here, but Christmas Photos! You blew out your entire outfit that I spent forever working on and putting together and at last minute you had to wear a diaper cover, but praise God it matched our colors and the pictures came out super cute!



Worst Moments: Worst moment was when I had to get hospitalized for a kidney infection and had to stay the night away from you Cole baby. You handled it like a champ, but I wish mommy could say the same thing.



Love: You LOVE to have all eyes and attention on you. If you don't have all eyes then you scream. You love lights, you love playing with Paisley or just watching her, you love getting a bath, you love playing patty cake and you love watching yourself in the mirror




Hate: You HATE tummy time. You scream like its the end of the world. Its kinda funny really.


**Cole Isaac. We are falling more and more in love with you little man. Things are starting to settle down in our crazy worlds and we are finally all starting to fit into a groove and its getting easier dealing with two kids. You are also calming down a lot more and arent as fussy. Its been a month full of lots of fun, laughter and just watching you grow. I forgot how fast time moves by, but this time I feel as if its going even faster. You are the cutest and sweetest little boy. You have a sweet spirit about you. I love you my little man!

Cole Isaac TWO Months


Its been a month of lots of fun and visitors! Grandpa and Grandma came to visit us for nine days and during that time we never stopped! Cole got to see and meet new people, but also got to experience a lot of outings. Despite having company, I feel like we are starting to get ourselves into a routine, and for that I am extremely grateful!!


Baby: Cole Isaac



Birthday: August 14, 2015



Age: Two Months



Weight: 10 lbs 12 oz



Height: 23 inches



Sleep: Sleeping through the night! Bedtime is generally around 9:30 sometimes up to 10:30 after last feeding and then little man will sleep till anywhere between 6:30-8:00. After that feeding he will sleep for another 3-4 hours depending on how tired he is. Once he wakes, he will eat, then hang out for about 2 hours and then sleep for another few hours and repeat :) I can I just say I am so thankful for a baby who sleeps!!



Bedtime: 10/10:30



Favorite Toy: Loves anything that rattles or plays music



Clothes Size: Newborn, but we are slowly moving into some 0-3 months, especially sleeper jammies since little man is getting quite long

Diaper Size: Size 1


Milestones: Sleeping through the night!! Smiling and Cooing



Firsts: First overnight outing to Orlando where we did Women of Faith. Cole Isaac you were a champ! You slept well in another place, you were excellent during the conference and you slept all the way to Orlando and most of the way home! You also attended your first church service too!


Best Mood: You are really happy in the mornings and when you first wake up!


Best Moments: Watching you grow! Its seems like he is growing a lot faster than Paisley did and I am trying to keep up and soak it all in.


Worst Moments: Still trying to figure this evening stuff out. Evenings are tough but we are slowly getting better.


Love: You are loving being in the ring sling and carried around. You love to be held, talked to, and just looked at. All eyes have to be on you, and all attention has to be on you. Its a rough life sometimes kid :) You also love to chat it up while you eat. You might be a talking boy. Your newest thing you love is being able to stand--alot like your big sissy!


Hate: You hate to be laid down and you definitely hate to lay on your back. You also arent a big fan of being cold, or people kissing your feet.


Eat: You eat a lot! I feel like I cant keep up! We nurse every two hours or so during the day unless if someone is sleeping then its back to eating soon as he wakes up. Cole Isaac you have to eat everytime you wake up, which is sometimes hard, but you are a growing boy! I have never seen anyone eat as much as he does! He will sleep through the night but will have to eat constantly once 6pm roles around. Did I mention evenings are rough?



Cole Isaac are time is flying and you are growing at an insane pace. One that I dont think I can always keep up. I want to keep you little forever, but then there are days I cant wait to see who you will be like. I cant wait to see what you and your sissy will be like together and I cant wait for all the fun of raising a boy. A journey that I will learn along the way. You are fun. You know what you want, when you want it, and you dont settle for "no". You arent always patient but we are working on it. You like to be the center of attention, which, I am sure you will give sissy a run for her money. You've got a bit of stubborness about you, but at the same time you are sweet spirited. I am so thankful for you. I couldnt have asked God for a greater little boy to be a mommy to. I love you so much little man!
