Fisher Grows! 3 Months

THREE MONTHS

Fisher: I can not get over how much you have grown! You are becoming such a little man and we love every second of it! You are just so amazing - you look at us and we know that you recognize us as mommy and daddy. There is not a better feeling in the world! This month you stopped nursing. I had a hard time with it, but am getting used to things. Again, you are proving to me that I can not control everything. I desperately wanted to nurse for the first year, but after I got so sick having you, it was just not in the cards for me. We met with lactation consultants, and you had the perfect latch - perfectly willing to nurse. I just could not get milk in for you. I am accepting things and know that you will still be perfectly healthy. You are a truly happy baby and you make every day have meaning. We loved our 1st Christmas as a little family! You made it so special! We are so proud of you and love you so much : )
