I don’t have much time (gotta
pack!) but I wanted to say happy 3-month birthday to my boy :)
He’s growing so big. He’s wearing size 3 diapers now (which
probably doesn’t mean anything to anyone) and just in the past
few days started really picking his head up and looking around
when he’s on his stomach. He actually enjoys tummy time, for a
little while anyway. We were going to use our JC Penney coupons
to get 3-month photos taken, but turns out that Penney’s
doesn’t have any studios for miles around. So that was the end
of that thought. Too bad, so sad, ’cause we have lots of
Penney’s coupons. These days Lex is also very active and loves
to play on his playmat. He’ll lay there for a long time kicking
his feet, batting at the dangling toys, talking to himself in
the mirror, sucking on his hands (he loves those hands!!) and
just having fun. I understand now why babies eat and sleep so
much – he must burn a ton of calories just laying on that mat.
He’s always going. I’m sure that will be less enjoyable once
he’s on his feet (or hands and knees) and really going!
My blog here is serving me two
purposes – 1) keep friends and family fully satiated with baby
news, and 2) serve as a record of milestones and stuff.
Traditionally people kept baby books, but we decided to do this
instead. Someday I’ll read back through this stuff and remember
when he was just a baby :)
