Atticus at Three Months Old



Whew! We made it through our second photo shoot with the professional photographer without any peeing incidents. When she did the naked shots she first put down a doubled-over bathmat and a blanket on her platform before she let Atticus anywhere near it. Plus she left the picking him up to us this time.

We're enjoying every minute with Atticus. He's growing up so fast! At three months old he:
  • Weighs about 16 pounds (90th percentile)
  • Prefers a sitting up position, though it's still a challenge for him to hold up his big old head
  • Smiles a lot and giggles sometimes
  • Squeals with delight occasionally
  • Bats at and grabs onto toys
  • Loves being outside
  • Pretty much hates tummy time
  • Loves stories, nursery rhymes, and songs

Kirsten - Atty is so darling. He's really starting to look older. How fun. The crinkly wrapping paper cracks me up. :)

We'd love to come up to swim in your pool! Cannon got a bunch of swimming supplies for his birthday and we really need an excuse to try them out. :)

Hi you two! This is Melanie Walton (Taylor's wife). I just found your blog and must tell you how adorable Atticus is! I can't believe he weighs 16 lbs. and is only 3 months old. Our little baby Gracie is 6 1/2 months old and she only weighs 15 lbs. 11 oz! She's a bit of a lightweight though. We have a private blog so if you'd like to see it please email your gmail email address so I can add you as a viewer. My email is melanieewalton@gmail.com or Taylor's is taywalton@gmail.com
