I thought about doing a belly cast, but our house is so small, would definitely not have anywhere to put it...

Well Hunter will be 3 months old in 9 days  It is just crazy, I can't believe she is already that old!! She is still getting up 2-3 times a night to eat, but she goes right back down. The only problem we are having is that she does not like to sleep during the day, she will take 30-45 minute naps, which makes it hard for me to nap during the day.
My DH has only been home for 8 days since January 6th, so he is finally getting a break from work on Friday and should be home for at least a month  So that is exciting, we are planning on taking Hunter swimming for the first time  I figure since she loves baths that she will love the pool !!
Hunter hates tummy time and this is the face I get when I do put her on her stomach
I am not sure what she weighs, when she was 6 weeks she was 10lbs 3 ounces, and we haven't been back to the doctor since then, we don't go back until April 27!! I have tried to weigh her at home and I think she is just about 12 pounds now. We are not vaccinating, so we haven't had to deal with her getting any shots, we may decide on a few vaccines once she turns two
I am feeling great, my c-section incision is healing really well and I have tried to start exercising but it is hard when you are on your own, taking care of a baby is exercise enough at this point
Here are a few more pics

LOVELOVELOVE the updates!!!
Kylar is 4.5 months and time is flying! He's right about 13 lbs and growing like a weed! He rolls from tummy to back and is working SO hard to roll back to tummy and to sit up. He's now on rice cereal and we've introduced bananas once or twice. He is so much fun! He giggles and talks all day! I am still EP and that is going okay. I still struggle with my supply but we do the best we can!
Here's my sweet boy!

A&E are 7 months tomorrow. I was looking at pics of a friend's twins who are a few weeks old and I can't even remember mine being that tiny. They are wearing 6-9 month pants today. I can't believe they already fit into some clothes that size as they were in NB for over 3 months. They are still pretty low on the growth charts, but are steadily moving up in % and are about the same size I was at their age. Both are sitting up on their own and both skipped tri-podding. They could not figure out how to bend to hold up with their arms. They have discovered their own feet recently. They knew about each others feet, but their own are new and exciting. E had her feet in her mouth for the first time yesterday.
Our biggest news is that we got the pathology report for their placenta and now know that they are indeed identical  I didn't care either way, it was just driving me crazy not knowing.
I'm nak, so too lazy to try to link pics. You can always see new pics on my 365 blog. The link is in my siggy.

Ana is 11 months old and is in to everything! She has been walking for about a month, but this past week she has got really fast and sturdy, no more butt bumping the floor every 30 seconds! Shes 29" and 16lbs, so very skinny and tall. We dropped her night feed and she goes 8.30-8 so thats fine by me!! Still bf, but she only nurses 4 times a day now. She´s really growing up fast!

Meg is just over 3 months old now - I can't believe how fast time is flying!
She laughs and smiles all the time and we hold regular conversations about anything and everything . . .  She really is quite the talker, sometimes she gets very loud while chatting us up, it's very funny. She found her fingers somewhere in January and now she sucks on them regularly. Thankfully she's only sucked her thumb a few times, so either she doesn't remember it or she just prefers her whole hand. Thanks to all this hand sucking she slobbers a lot, and often we hear lots of slurping because she gets so into it. It's pretty funny.
She was 12lb 2 oz at her 2 month appt (which was really at 2.5 months) and 23 inches long. (She was 7lb 6oz at birth and 20.5 inches). Since then she's had another growth spurt and I think she got longer because she no longer fits her 0-3 month sleepers - she couldn't straighten her legs anymore in them so I thought it was time to move up to 3-6 month sizes.
She hasn't rolled over yet but the other day she looked like she was going to attempt it from belly to back - she kept lifting her hip up off of the floor like she was going to roll. She will only tolerate tummy time for a couple of minutes before screaming but she loves to play on her back on her activity mat. She wears herself regularly on that thing.
I finally put her in her own room to sleep last night for the first time. It was definitely harder on me than her, she slept pretty well, only woke up once to eat and one time for her binky. Meanwhile I checked the monitor a gazillion times over night.
I'll update later with a pic - I haven't uploaded them yet.
UPDATE:
3 Months Old

This is a great thread! All the babies are just adorable. . . Megan, I must say that Hunter's tummy time face is hilarious!
Elliott is 13 1/2 months, which is hard to believe. I feel like parenting keeps getting more and more fun these days--he is such a joy and really an easy baby. Yes, I said baby. I am holding tight to that until he walks, which he is not! He pulls up and cruises, but will only stand unassisted momentarily until he realizes it and plops onto his hiney. Elliott is talking ALL the time. I would estimate around 20 words:
mama
dada
up (uh-uh)
down (duh-duh)
night, night (nigh-nigh)
all done (ah-duh)
agua (for water)
thank you (day-du)
bye-bye
eat (he typically signs this one)
baby
uh-oh
nana (for banana)
a close approximation of "Humphrey" (our dog)
milk (a sign)
oo-oo-ah (to imitate the sound a monkey makes)
more(sign on this one, too)
Hi
That's all I can come up with now. Thanks for bearing with me on the list. . . it was more for myself, I think, to see where we are so far.  Elliott is also eating us out of house and home! We call him our bottomless pit! His favorite foods are bananas and anything citrus (oranges, tangerines). He drinks whole milk now and loves it. We are seeing some dancing, playing with trains (seriously, this is so innate in boys, I think) and he loves a serious game of peek-a-boo.
And the best part. . . Here are some pictures from this week:

In a few hours Kaiden will be 9 days old...it is quite an adjustment having the world not revolve around me, but we are on cloud 9 and enjoying every second of it!! I never thought I could be so in love...
This is a pic from this weekend (then I did some minor touchup in photoshop to his rash and the lighting)...OMG, I could just eat him up with a spoon

Courtney, I agree - those eyes are gorgeous! Although I hope the nose picking picture was AFTER the finger in the mouth, not before  LOL
And Tonya, your little man... I keep saying it, but he's going to be a heartbreaker for sure!
So adorable... *sniffles* All these babies are making me cry! *sniff* Happy tears, its OK LOL

LOVE all the updates!!! All you pregos look BEAUTIFUL & are glowing, and everyone's LO's are absolutely precious! Camden is 2 months 3 days old! He's a total joy, and we love him more than we ever knew we could. Cooing and smiling these huge innocent smiles, ahhh those are the best things in the world! I'm pumping full time every 3-4 hours and Camden is quite the little eater! It really is crazy how quickly he changes, and he outgrows a new outfit every couple days it seems. Camden loves baths and water, and is sleeping 10+ hour chunks at night these days! He's SUCH a great baby! The cats and dog all love him and want to be near him at all times. We're already talking about baby #2  Probably will start trying again late fall! Can't wait to meet the upcoming babies!!

Jayla will be 6 months old in a week! thats half a year!! time freaking flies!! she is so much fun! she laughs and talks all the time! shes sitting up on her own for a little while now. shes lazy in the rolling department though. about a month ago she was so so close!(all she needed was to pull her arm out from under her) and she hasnt tried in like 3 weeks.

All your babies are so cute and you preggos look awesome! I'm counting the days until I go off track April first so we can get Abby's room done. I have an ultra sound tomorrow to check her growth, because they found some cysts that could be completely normal or could indicate Trisomy 18 (but my NT scan risk for that was like 1:3600, so I'm not too worried). After the Ultrasound, I hope nothing else will bother or alarm me until she's born. I'm also taking my glucose test tomorrow, so busy day! I had three people (my step mom, a co worker, and a student) tell me that my bump got huge all of a sudden, so I must have had a growth spurt within the last day or two. Ignore the circles under my eyes, they seem to have taken up a permanent residence.
