3 months home.

Our sweet son has been home for 3 months! That's a quarter of a year!

September .......................................... December
Weight: 17.5 pounds ........................... 19.8 pounds
Height: 28 inches ................................. 29 inches

In September... he sort of army crawled, but got tired really quickly.
In December... he is crawling at a good pace and keeping his parents busy!

In September... he could sit with a little support (pillow behind him).
In December... he can sit up by himself from lying down!

In September... he could sort of stand if you had your hands under his armpits.
In December... he stands hanging onto hands, toys, couch... and the little daredevil will frequently lift his hands up and simply lean against something!

In September... there was no walking, whatsoever.
In December... he can walk holding mommy or daddy's hands!

In September... he would spit out food with any texture.
In December... he's eating Cheerios and has no problem with textures!

In September... he wouldn't touch food on his tray.
In December... he picks up food and puts it in his mouth! 

Also in December...
- He's "blowing kisses" (i.e. puts his hand over his mouth).
- When asked for a kiss, he will lean forward, open mouth and put his tongue on your cheek.
- Regularly says "Dada" and "Mama" and "Bobo"... as well as a lot of other nonsense babble.
- Loves turning lights on and off. 
- Looks for and points to Zooey when asked, "Where's Zooey?"
- He's stacking his blocks instead of just trying to knock them over!
- Still loves seeing himself in the mirror and in pictures. 
- Still very clingy to Mom & Dad, but we don't mind that one bit.

Bo-berry-bean, we love watching you learn and grow. You never fail to amaze us.
We sure do love you lots!
