Three months old

I really feel like I have blinked and three months have gone by. Strangely enough, I think I have become more patient with Julian around. Don't get me wrong, there are PLENTY of arguments and being too hard or too lenient still going on, but I have really had to relax some. 

I feel like the boys have all started to show their personality around 3-4 months. Julian LOVES his big brothers and is already laughing at them all the time. We are loving those little baby chuckles. There are lots of big smiles and kicking of the legs. He still DESPISES tummy time. It is so weird because the other two really liked it. I did read somewhere that babies with reflux tend to scream a little more. NO JOKE! We will eventually roll over!! Our home scale weighed him at 15lbs on his 3 month birthday. He is a major hand sucker or adult finger gnawer. 

Professional Pictures

We had these pictures taken back at the end of March while we were home in Baltimore. I wanted newborn ones but these turned out cute and I got some of all three boys together. 

 These few of Julian freak Chris out. He thinks they look too porcelain. I agree-but think they are super cute.

 Katie, Jacob and Carly came up to see Larissa and the boys before they leave and we got to visit for a bit. It was so great to catch up with Katie. Her family moved to Connecticut after we had known them for a year and its funny how quickly you form friendships with some people and miss them when they leave! (I just KNOW that is how all our friends in Baltimore feel….right?!)

 Ryan only wanted to sit by the boys but wouldn't go over there for some reason. Carly, RJ, Braxton and Jacob. RJ and Braxton were all boy that AM and had jumped around and had a ball in some muddy puddles. Luckily they live super close by.

 I had made these for Andrew's friends for his "party," and completely forgot to give them out

                          Ryan reading to Julian and making sure he was covered with his blanket.

Same shirt that has been passed down through Semesky boys. I found the others to compare.  Andrew was 8 weeks old, Ryan was almost 5 months, and Julian was 12 weeks in these pictures. I really don't think they even look alike here! 

 Andrew sporting his new TMNT koozie and hat from Aunt Rebecca, Adam and Ben

 Chris was away for three days in New Orleans (and we all survived-my first time home alone with all three!) and brought back this for me as a souvenir. So be it that I am trying to lose baby weight-these were gone in 5 seconds once I opened them. Yum!

 Andrew's card to his teacher for Teacher Appreciation week. I wouldn't help him spell or anything so for Teacher he got out a book that he knew had it in there! Obviously the rest are spelled incorrectly.

 Ryan, Julian and I headed out to the Great Lawn and Turtle Pond before playing with some friends.

                                  All three (and a half) boys watching the Three Stooges.

 Rainy day drive over to Mary's for dinner. Love how Ryan crossed his ankles to sleep

 Spinning and Dancing. Quinn LOVES the big boys. And the big boys love him. Julian will be up dancing with them this time next year!

 Andrew sporting another fever, strep throat and scarlet fever. The first picture was him asleep in the waiting room. You can't really tell in the next because he was being so silly, but his cheeks are rosy from the scarlet fever.
