We have had a busy few days & lots to catch up on! Tomorrow is your last day of being a 3 month old. You are going to turn 4 months old on Wednesday. Each passing day of you getting bigger just amazes me!
Thursday - when I picked you up from Mary's, she said that you act like a trained circus seal. You roll over from your back to your tummy, the kids all cheer and you smile. Then, you roll back over from your tummy to your back, the kids all cheer and you smile. I don't ever see this at home so I think you are lazy at home but I tell you it is because your cloth diapers are too big for you to be so active :) Thursday night, we had dinner with Gramma Debi D & Mr. Pepsi. Then, we ran errands to get ready for our trip.
Friday - it was off to see your Minnesota family! We packed up Great Gramma's car and we took off. You were so good on the way up there - you slept most of the ride. When we got there, Brandon was in town already and your Minnesota Godparents were working. You and I took a quick nappie before we hung out with the family at a late dinner. We stayed at a hotel and you slept with Daddy tonight. You were so cute laying in bed next to him with the blankets up all around you. You looked like such a big boy! I really love this photo because not only are you & your daddy super cute lying next to each other, you can see both of your bottles in the background. You are both addicted to your individual bottles - you to formula and him to Diet Coke!
Saturday - You woke up for some food then we all slept in until 9:30. You are a good vacation sleeper! We went over your Baby God Daddy's house for awhile then we went shopping. We finally found you a diaper bag we could use. It is a Nike Backpack inspired by Brian. I think we have finally found our final diaper bag. We bought you a little windbreaker jacket and it was one of those moments where I look down at my hand carrying this little squirt's coat and I think "Who does this belong to?" Then, I remember, that I am a mommy now and you are my son and I have to buy you coats. Almost 4 months later and I still am occasionally taken off guard. When we got back to the apartment, Auntie Val was in town to love you up. She spoiled you while we grabbed dinner. Your mom and dad packed our bags for 75 degree weather but it was in the 50s. It made soccer a tad chilly. Thankfully, your Auntie and Great Gramma loaded up a bag with winter coats. We wrapped you up in one of those to stay warm. You liked all the cheering but when the crowd boo'd, you got upset and started crying. Baby GodDaddy played for 28 minutes and their team won! Afterwards, you hung out with Auntie Val while we played cards. It was your last chance to hang out with your cousin Brandon. Each time he held you, you were fussy & he didn't quite know what to do with you. I think he just picked the worst times to hold you rather than you disliking him :) He has committed to teaching you how to ski when you are able to walk so you need to stay on his good side!!
Sunday - You woke up again for food then slept until 10:00!! I loved it! We had breakfast at Brian's and you got some last minute loving from Auntie Val before we packed up the car and headed out again. You slept almost the entire way home. Your job was to entertain Great Gramma in the car and I don't think you passed! Sleeping is not entertaining but we were all happy since you were not fussing.
Monday - Back to daycare and to your routine! Mary said you were all smiles this morning. She is altering your schedule a tad so that you sleep when I pick you up so I can keep working. It has been working out good. You give me a couple of smiles then you fall asleep for about 45 minutes. Afterwards, I was going out to run errands and Gramma Debbie wanted to see you so you hung out with her tonight. When you got home, it was bath time (plus some oily gook on your head again!), food time and bed time!
Tomorrow, you are going to hang out with Grampa Keith & Heather during my last hour of work then we are going to go see Uncle Jeff! You haven't seen him in 3 months! You will also get to meet Auntie Sheila's parents - Linnea and Norm. I think we are also going to get to smooch up Baby Jacob if we can snatch him away from all those other people who want to love him up!!
