3 months

Little man turned 3 months on the 11th. He weighed in at 6 pounds 11.6 ounces. He was over seven but has been loosing weight while on the steroids. Let's just say it gives him a little buzz and he burns more calories. I always talk about him medically, but never about anything else. So here are a couple things about Carter.
- he LOVES his binki. He is going to be a good sucker let's just hope his vocal cord/airway gets stronger so he can swallow.
- he is such a mellow little guy. So even tempered.
- as he gets closer to term he is becoming so much more alert. He follows peoples faces and voices.
- he loves his boppy time
- his hair gets really fuzzy after his bath.
- he is not a fan of "bath" time until you wash his hair. He would be perfectly happy if we did that all day long.
- he loves his Daddy. He always has. I think his voice is his favorite to hear.
- his neck is very strong. Not such a great thing when they try to keep his head in the same spot for ventilator safety.
- speaking of his head his head shape is looking so much better. It was starting to get really long and narrow. They have been laying him on a donut and it looks great.
- he is one strong boy. He can wiggle himself out of any swaddle which leaves his arms free to swing around and pull on his vent. Scary.
- he loves watching his mobile.
- he has the sweetest spirit. You can feel it the second you walk in his room.

Carter we love you so much. You continue to amaze us with what your tiny body can do. You bring an incredible amount of joy into our lives. We are so blessed to have you. You sure have come a long way in the last three months.
