3 months

Orrin is a lot more difficult to photograph lately - he never holds still!

My Photoshoot:

He's cute, but pushing the cow up.

Still cute, but he got the cow all the way up.Oooh, my hand...

Ooooh, the wall....Finally!

Please excuse the legwarmers - he was getting a little red so I'm trying to let him air out a little without a cover.

Developments:

He doesn't seem any chubbier, but definitely longer. We won't know his stats for another month. He is wearing 6 month size cloths now, and they aren't even big on him (well, maybe a little wide).

He can hold his head up so much better, so tummy time can actually be fun for a few minutes if there is a toy in front of him to look at.

He loves to sit upright, either with my hand on his back, or propped up with a pillow and the boppy.

He loves to hit at his hanging toys and is getting much better at hand control. He also likes to hold onto toys, but I have to put them in his hand.

He still loves to talk, he'll repeat "boo" now (with some effort). And probably other syllables but that's the one I say to him most often I guess.

He will usually sleep all night long without getting up (so from 8pm to about 7am). I like this!

We're still working on the napping but its getting better!

Orrin hasn't figured it out yet, but Spot has learned how to push the buttons on his music toy to get it to play. I've been hearing the music turn on in the other room all day today.



This is how I get things done:

This chair is on the table and he'll watch while I cook dinner.

This is how I get the laundry folded and put away. Give him a sock to hold on to and I'll get at least 10-15 minutes!When all else fails, I've got babysitters.... :)

Of course this is why I have to clean so much, I turn my back for one second and a dog is sure to find its way onto the blankets or steal a toy.



And a few just for fun:
