He Loves to Stand

Mickey has been loving his little excersaucer! He loves to stand up so it makes it all the more fun for him and easier than me holding him up all day long...he's been exploring all the toys that are on it as well. He has started to grab toys that are close to him too. He doesn't really reach for things, but if they are there he grabs them. He had one of his Ugly Dolls in his stroller today and he just kept staring at it and touching it's eyes and grabing it. It was very cute to see him.

He's been laughing too! This past week he has just been really laughing at different things. He gave lots of laughs to his Aunt Cally at church this past Sunday. His Aunt Ember was rocking him back and forth toward her and she (Cally) would rub his head and he thought it was hysterical! It's so cute to watch him laugh and smile. He's such a sweet boy...

Also, Chris and I have learned a weird comforting thing he does at bed time...he rubs the back of his head! As soon as we lay him down with his pacey, his hand goes to the back of his head and he rubs it. His hand is usually still there in the morning too...he has a bald spot there now from all the rubbing he does! What a cutie pie!!

Bouncing Baby Boy

Mickey bouncing away in his seat for the first time!

He even noticed the toys on the front and played with them a little bit...

Little Squirt...

Mickey woke me up a lot last night...it was funny though because he'd make sounds like he wanted his pacey and when I would go in, he was wide awake on his back looking at me! He did that several times so I'd roll him back on his belly, give him his pacey, and then he'd go back to sleep for two hours. He finally got up around 5:40am (I had gotten out of that habit and so it was pretty tiring for me) wanting to eat. This boy is going to keep me very active!

Well, we are leaving him with a non-parent babysitter this weekend...Uncle Paul has graciously agreed to watch the munchkin while Chris and I go to the Shins concert Saturday. Hopefully he behaves and is a good boy (Mickey, not Paul...lol...) for his god-father...we're going to put nanny-cams all over the house to catch Paul spoiling him too...lol...just kidding...

It Goes By Too Fast

Well, Mickey is officially three months old today...where does the time go? I've always heard parents say it goes by so quickly and I never understood that until I had Mickey. They really don't stay baby-babies for very long. Sigh...it's okay though because he's more fun now. He gives us such huge adorable smiles! He's really too cute...

He's been laughing at the fan a lot. He doesn't really laugh laugh, but he giggles at it. Even if it's not on, he loves it. It's really cute! Except, I am selfish and I only want those smiles directed at me and not some ceiling fan...lol...

He's still be sleeping well, except he's been waking up like 5 times for his pacey. They usually run together as in I get up twice around 4am and three times around 6am...he can suck on his hand, but I guess he likes the pacifier better. Little rascal...
