Ollie is officially 3 months old. 14 weeks and 3 days if you want to count by weeks. We are having a blast with him. He is such a bundle of fun these days. Don't get me wrong, he has his evil moments, but we're overcoming those, one fit at a time.
As of lately, he is laughing out loud when he's in the right mood. Sometimes he'll open his mouth really wide and throw his head back, but no sound comes out. Other times he's cracking up. Sometimes, he cracks himself up. Sunday, January 25th, was his first comedic moment with his favorite cousin, Tina. We'd visited with family and friends and he would just stare and sometimes crack a smile, but when he met Tina, he went wild. He laughed so hard he gave himself the hiccups. Then he decided he didn't like cousin Tina anymore ;-)
From that day on he's been laughing frequently. Its such a joy to finally hear those sounds and see those smiles!!! We've worked hard to earn that!!!!
I don't remember if I blogged about this or not, but he can roll from his belly to his back now. Sometimes he needs to be reminded he can do it, but then he'll take off on his own. He isn't rolling from his back, but he is sitting up really well while supported. He sits in his Bumbo seat like a champ. He loves to be in his Johnny Jump Up, too. I've got pics of all this I'll include below.
Our big leap recently has been cereal. He has been spitting up a lot recently so I called the pediatrician and asked if it'd be okay to go ahead and start cereal. She said yes. So we spoon fed him some cereal and he did GREAT. He loved it. He'll be a healthy eater. Hopefully, he'll start eating on a better schedule. Right now we are feeding him about every 2.5 hours. Ugh!! At night he's still a great sleeper. He sleeps for usually 6 hours then eats then sleeps another 3-4 hours. He has his nights, but for the most part he's doing great. We put him in his crib to sleep one night, but he wasn't getting a good sleep so we switched right back to the car seat. Don't judge me, he sleeps well and it isn't hurting him. Someday he'll be a hunch back, but we'll just blame that on his slouching!!! HA!!
I think that's all the updates I have. He's growing and growing and I love him more and more everyday. Doesn't seem possible, but its all the new things he does that I fall in love with.
PS-- We survived the snow and ice storm and are patiently awaiting the next big snow we are supposed to get on Monday!!!
Blogger isn't allowing me to put up pics. There are some technical difficulties. So until I can fix this problem copy and paste the following link into your internet browswer for more pics on snapfish.com link
