Ryder-3months

Ryder is 3 months old!  Time is flying by with this little guy.  A few things about Ryder: he is the happiest baby and is constantly smiling.  He is a great baby.  He is so chill I often forget he is even with us or that I have a 4th child!  He is so content to be in his bouncer or carseat just looking around at everything.  If he is tired he will just fall alseep in the bouncer without making a peep! 
He is sleeping 9-10 hours straight at night and takes about 4 naps a day.  I put him in his crib or carrier for naps and bedtime wide awake and he will put himself to sleep without a fuss.  It is awesome!  He loves his blanket, nuk, and being swaddled.  It has been great to have a baby sleep so well in the carrier because we are always picking up or dropping off someone.
He started doing this funny grin with his tongue sticking out.  The kids still adore Ryder and love making him laugh and smile.  I think Heavenly Father knew I needed a really good baby to survive having him and Brooks so close in age!  I am very grateful let me just tell you!  I think that is why the transition to four has been easier than I thought because Ryder is such a good baby.
He has been my favorite child to photograph lately!  He is so easy to capture a smile on camera!  I love it!



His smile really does just melt my heart!  We love this little guy so much.

Your kids are all so cute! I am already getting very envious of how well Ryder is sleeping! What, he's 3 months old? All my kids but Zack were still waking up when they were 10 months old. I hope this little guy will be more like Ryder :)

So how do I pre-order one like that for my fourth? ;)
