It happened quite suddenly...you grew! It was one morning or evening I forget which, but we got a kick from just staring at you. You suddenly had these adorable rolls on your arms and legs. It made us laugh and so we have these pics to prove just how cute and cuddly you are!
So far, the first two months of your life were a little hectic. Most of the time you were uncomfortable and unhappy and we learned that you were underfed and had acid reflex. Then in April we had an emergency trip to St. Luke's Hospital because one morning you had spit up a lot of blood. We stayed in the hospital for one long restless night, only to not have much news about the cause. Austin you have stumped the docs, and for three weeks now the symptoms have completely disappeared...thank you Lord! So at three months you are growing rapidly and you don't have the doctors concerned because you look healthy. You have enjoyed conversation with people, sang with mom and dad, cheered little T on at baseball games, rolled from back to front, stood with support, slept through the entire night 3 times, nursed great and often along with much and continued spit ups, put things like little rattles and blankets in your mouth.
Things you love: being held so that your back is aligned with our stomachs...you've become very curious.

Austin we love you very much. I'll never forget when I was in our bedroom rocking you and dad came in and bent down and looked in my eyes and said, "I knew I would love him, but I didn't know I could love him this much." Our love for you is amazing and abundant. Dad says what he loves most about you is when he comes home from work and you greet him with the biggest smile. I love our peaceful mornings that we spend smiling and talking.
So far you remind me of your daddy because you look like him and you also do the same thing that dad does with his foot (you keep it either flexed or curled)!
Next to your teddy bear for sizing.
Hey mom, I am bigger than the teddy right?
