3 month update!



My unofficial weight via bathroom scale = 14.4lbs!

Skills I have mastered:

Smiling, laughing & squealing in delight at people is still my best skill. I can flash a killer smile at anyone who asks for a smile. I often get my whole body into my smile or laugh just to show them how much I love the attention.
I can make lots of baby noises now, things that sound like ooh, aag, yea, ahh are my favorite noises.

Stuff I am working on:
I am getting much better at using my arms. I have a bouncy chair at baby school that has items dangling down which I can grab and play with easily. I also like to use my right hand to hold my left hand and help guide it to my mouth for easier thumbsucking.
Rolling over - I have done it twice now from my belly to my back, but I cant figure out how I did it! I think I wanted to get off my belly so much I just kicked myself over.
Sleeping through the night - most nights I have my last meal between 9-10pm and sleep until 4:30-5:30

Likes:
Going for walks is still my favorite. If I am in my stroller I fall asleep and if Daddy carries me in the bjorn I love to look around and check everything out around me.
I like to be read to, the epic tales of "Elmo so big" and "Fluffy Chick and friends" are great.
I like to stand up (with people holding me of course)
I like to talk with Gram on Skype every Sunday night.
I like to make spit bubbles, in fact drooling is becoming quite popular.

Dislikes:
Tummy time is still not my favorite but I tolerate it now for a few minutes at a time.
There isn't too much more I dislike, I think I am a pretty relaxed little man. In fact here is a picture of me in the massage chair relaxing!

He's so adorable!

What happens if he spits up on Dan's uniform? Does he have to come home to change clothes or is the Air Force understanding of those things?

I can wash it off and the water stains just look like more camouflage.
