Three Months Old

Kiernan turned three months old on the 26th. I can't believe it's been that long already. So much has changed and it has flown by so quickly. He's gotten so big as well - growing almost right before my eyes. I feel like we've reached a harmony in our relationship in that time. We've gotten a decent sleep schedule most nights now, with Kiernan sleeping as many as 5 hours in a stretch. I think I finally understand what most of his different cries mean now too. Breastfeeding has gone from trying and sometimes awkward to feeling natural at last.

On the flip side of that, this week has been very long and trying with work. Monday was my first clue I was in for a bad week. I spent the first part of the day busting my ass to get something done for a particular client and was hugely relieved to have a chance to leave for lunch. I took the opportunity to go across the street to see Kiernan. The mere sight of his big smile made everything better and made it easier to face the rest of the day. I'm very glad I'm able to do that.

I've finally beat the cold that hit me a couple weeks ago, but Kiernan is still fighting off the tail end of his. Hopefully he gets better soon as his stuffy nose and the snoring it causes makes for some long nights sometimes.
