The Big Move & 3 Months

At 7 am Jonas' alarm goes off, and shortly after Lilah comes into our room, awake for the day.  It's a lot of commotion, and Jonas Henry (who is sleeping soundly in the bassinet next to me) is usually woken up.  As much as I hated to do it, it was time for him to move to his room.  (The girls didn't move out until 5 or 6 months). Since he wasn't eating in the middle of the night anymore, I really didn't have a good reason to keep him in our room.  I really like to hear him breathing next to me, but I had to give him a chance to sleep in if he wanted to.  So, on Tuesday night (one week ago),  he made the big move. 
And then, of course, he started waking up again.  Just once a night between two and three, but waking up nonetheless.  Maybe it was an adjustment period?  Growth spurt? Missing his Momma?  It just took a few days, but now he is sleeping well once again. And going to bed at the same time as the girls, so Jonas and I have quite a bit of free time in the evening. (He sleeps 7p-7a).
As my return to work approaches, we have been practicing with a bottle and storing a lot of milk.  So far he is doing great, so hopefully we won't have a repeat of Emma. He's very talkative and loves smiling at his sisters.  He hates tummy time and loves his swing.  He naps there everyday, and I'm already worried about when those days will end.
I'll try to post a link below to his talking video from last night.  I love to hear his sweet little voice.  You should be able to click either the title or the link...
