I have an aunt! I have an aunt!

This weekend I went to my 5th state - Maine. I had a wonderful reason to do so, my Uncle Andy married a wonderful woman named Katie. Here are a few, not amazing pictures of me at the delightful events. Mommy was quite busy with me and Daddy was as busy being the Best Man so this is all they could muster. I am counting on lots of relatives to send us some more pictures of our family at the wedding! It was great getting to see so many relatives and meeting some new ones.

Showing I am not a true Scotsman at another family dinner, though that is my family tartan (paternal grandfather's side)...


Relaxing in a hotel room...


Don't let the pictures fool you, I wasn't all that quiet and serene at the events:)

More recruiting

Not only do the big companies want me, but so do the schools. Mommy's high school alumni magazine was begging for news so she told them of my arrival. They sent me this t-shirt when they heard. Apparently they have money to burn, but I guess that is not surprising given their large endowment and high tuition. It came complete with engraved card from the head of school and his wife. They didn't bother to sign it by hand, but apparently are less formal than when mommy went there since they used just their first names on the card.

jump, jumperoo.......

my new favorite place to hang out..

One-Quarter Birthday

I am 3 months old today!


I am so big I can no longer use the bassinet part of my Pack N Play, so now mommy and daddy need to strengthen their backs so they can pick me up from naps. I am now a long way down...

Video!

Yay for blogger for adding an easy way to upload movies. This is just a little something mom took last week as a test. She took it with her regular camera, not the video camera, so the quality isn't amazing. It isn't me at my happiest, because I am SO tired from holding my head up. However, you can see me in motion, which is pretty cool!

Go Pats (belated)

You can tell I was excited pre-game! Of course I am always happy to be on my changing table - it is best if I am naked, but even clothed it is a fun place to be.






PS - Thanks Uncle Andy and Aunt Katie - I LOVE my jersey:) It is the perfect size to carry me through the playoffs too...

Space Issues...

mommy has run out of hard drive space on her computer, so it will be a few days before more blog photos can be added!

In the meantime these are some of the things I have been doing and am planning!

* I giggle....Mommy and daddy aren't that funny so it is still a rare event
* I can hold my head up very well (though do get tired of this eventually)
* I am getting quite good at grabbing things in front of me. My arms/hands still don't quite do what I want them to do, but they are getting there
* I still don't like to be on my tummy, but can tolerate it if I am very rested
* I am starting a yoga class with mommy on Tuesday and a mommy/baby enrichment class on Weds.
* I have been to 2 movies (Ocean's 13 and Sicko) and am going to my third today (No Reservations)...Mommy brings us to the baby-friendly movie at the Capitol Theatre right here in Arlington
* I have been to 4 states (MA, CT, NH and MI) and will go to my 5th in a few weeks (ME)

My First Pair of Jeans!

I am a giant 12 week old - these are size 6-12 months! Mommy tried them on me just for fun thinking they would be too big but they fit me fine around the waist, though are a tad long. Given I can't walk yet that is ok. It isn't like I will trip over them!

Sleeping...

Mommy and Daddy let me sleep unswaddled last night for the first time. Up until now I have slept in one of these SwaddleMes since they can't figure out how to swaddle me well in a receiving blanket. I am way to clever to stay in one of those. Not only did I sleep very well for them unswaddled, but I showed them how I can turn on my side. I have done this for them a few times the last few nights.


For those of you interested in such things, I normally sleep from about 9:30 until about 4-4:30 and then go back to sleep after getting some food. If I am feeling especially tired, I will wake up only at 5:30 and if I am feeling like I want to annoy Mommy, which is rare lately, I wake up at 3 and 6.
