Jacob is 3 months old

It's hard to believe that Jacob is already 3 months old! He has done great his first two weeks at day care - he's in a room with 8 babies and there are always 2 ladies watching over them. Our morning routine is going pretty smoothly. Jacob sleeps about 7 hours at night and wakes around 4:30 a.m. for a meal, then either he wakes around 6:30 or I wake him by 7 for a morning diaper change and snack, and then Manuel is off with Jacob to Valero by 7:20. I get ready and try to be at work by 8:30 a.m., and I pump (breast milk) three times before we all arrive home around 6 p.m. Manuel typically spends his lunch break at the Valero Day Care - feeding, singing, talking, and holding Jacob.
Manuel and Jacob are heading out in the morning.


Jacob went to his first birthday party two weekends ago. His friends Jake and Holden turned one year old. Maybe at the next party they will play with each other.
Scott is feeding Holden and Jake is being fed by his grandma.

We had a family bath time the next day. Rosario helped me clean under Jacob's neck while his Grandma Elsa held him in place. We also had several other spectators.


We had a family outing last Saturday to Six Flags Fiesta Texas for Valero's Employee Family Picnic. Jacob opened his eyes for just a minute when we first arrived, then he slept for the two hours we were there.

On Friday we got together to celebrate Uncle (Friar) Art's 61st birthday. He was visiting from Indianapolis, spending the week to celebrate his birthday.

Jacob has had a stuffy nose for the past few weeks, but it's finally clearing up. It woke him up sometimes at night, but he never cried or complained.
Unfortunately, Jacob's UM outfit was not the good-luck charm they needed to defeat Michigan State yesterday. We still enjoyed watching the game and relaxing at home.
