3 Months old!!!


I had my 3 month birthday today - I can't believe how fast the time is flying by. At least I have some comfy clothes to pass the time with.
My parents

These are my parents - they take a lot of care and feeding but they're worth it!
Rose and Midge

Rose came back to see me and brought Midge with her this time and it was a really fun visit. I can't wait to see them in Saugatuck this summer.
Mom 'n me

Dad finally picked up the camera and took a picture of me with my mom!
Twelve weeks old!!


Look how I've grown in twelve weeks! I was impressed to learn that I'm weighing in at 13 lbs. 12 oz. with a height of 26 3/4 inches.
Prince Charming

I've got my fun frog outfit on - and then my Mom kissed me and said I was her Prince Charming.
Reading

Every day I hang out with my dad and he finds something to read to me. Today he found something with pictures - a bit more my speed than the Economist articles he sometimes tortures me with!
Can I get some cheese with that whine?

I'm sick of being up here so please just move me, please, please, please, please! Waaaaaah!!!
Say no to burps

No I will not burp, dad! Try as you might I'm holding it in and I dare say looking pretty cute fighting the burp - you have to fight for your right to not burp these days!!
Over the shoulder

Dad has to hold me tight in this position - otherwise I might leap over his shoulder!
Nightly Bath rituals


I enjoy my nightly bathtime routine - first I hang out like a Prince in the "tub" and then I get the spa treatment with a towel massage. I only vaguely remember what comes next because I get a wee bit groggy after all that!
Hanging out with Papa G

My Papa G stopped by the other day - in between stories (and I don't mean kids books) he took a break to let me know how much I mean to him!
Two month check up
So I had my two month check up yesterday! Here are my stats at 9 weeks old:
Head = 40.3 cm
Weight = 12 lb 12 oz
Length = 25.75 in
Mom and Dad aren't calling me Peanut any more, now it's String Bean since I'm so long and lean! Dr. Gosch was very happy with my progress. She had me do some tummy time and said I was lifting my head like a 4 month old. I had three shots and was very brave, I only cried for a minute and they haven't bothered me since. Mom and Dad are so proud of me!
Rock n roll

Look at me rockin' out with my AB/CD t-shirt. I'm working on the hand signals to go along with this great shirt - check back soon.
Personality




People keep commenting (yes I do listen) that my personality is really showing through these days. Mom took these shots of me and I heard her tell her friend Rose that I was being flirty and coy - those words don't mean much to me yet, but I know there's a dictionary around here someplace!
Me and Dad

I love my Dad!
Proper grooming

I learned an early lesson from my dad so I'm taking great care with my hair - brushing it every night so it doesn't fall out!
Two months old!

I am two months old! To celebrate I slept 8 hours straight at night. Mom and Dad were thrilled and have asked me to keep it up.
