the littlest carscadden: Our lives with a three month old

Will is now three months old. He's "waking up" as Lucas calls it. He's finding his hands and really seeing our faces. Every morning when he wakes up and I say good morning, his face breaks out into a huge grin. It is so satisfying. The fuss has officially passed. He still needs evening snuggles to be calm but does not require full on standing, swaying, or a constant music barrage to make it through. In fact, tonight, I got him to fall asleep by just patting his bottom. Lucas and I often spend time in our rocker because it's the most comfortable place to easily get him to calm down and fall asleep.

Big happenings in July: We went to Ocean City, MD for a week with our friends the Dorseys. I didn't take one picture outside the condo! Luckily, Lucas snapped a few.

Also, our friends, the Benoit/Rileys moved away to Colorado, taking Miles' best friend Frankie with them. It's been tough without them. We miss them so.

We found out that Miles got into pre-K at our local public school today! And I'm back to work today. And Lucas did sing along with two kids. Today was a big day. We survived!

Here is our family of four this month:
