Max is 3 months old!

I can't believe how fast time has gone! Max turned 3 months old yesterday! He is a whopping 16 + lbs and is happily transitioning into daycare and eating from a bottle during the day! He has definitely found his hands and loves to suck and squeak on his two middle fingers. He's strong enough to try and pull himself up when you grab his hands and sit him up, and he loves to smile and giggle all the time and especially when he sees Kar dance! We are just waiting for him to turn over, and we are working on tummy time, too. We just got FLOR carpet tiles for the family room, so more floor play time is happening with both kids and us too.
As I mentioned, Max started daycare two weeks ago and he is  doing really well. The ladies call him the little angel, as he doesn't cry or fuss unless he's really hungry. He's in a class of all boys - Ryan, Miller, and Jackson, and then next to another class with two girls and two guys. Ryan and Max are about the same age - and size - and they have seemed to become good friends already! The other day I walked into the class room to get Max and he and Ryan were cracking up laughing at each other! It was really funny and cute! I wish I had had my video camera!
We are all starting to get into a routine, which is good, though it isn't at all easy!  But we will get through it and it only makes the weekends more important as a family. Karmann refers to us a lot as the family, which she thankfully includes everyone and never ever leaves Max out. She really likes him and now that he is starting to interact a little more, she's falling in love with her little brother! He is still often referred to as "she" and "little sister", but she'll learn. She also often talks about how he was in my stomach - which I think is funny, but at least she remembers. I always emphasize that she was in there before also. Anyway, I am happy to know that there is a chance my children will get along and love each other!!
Well, its a quiet house tonight already, and with the Super Bowl tomorrow, I should get some sleep! I'll update 3 month photos of Max later :)
