3 Months old

Wow, it's hard to believe the man is 3 months old! It's been so great getting to know him and seeing all the changes as fast as they come. He has been a great baby so far and we anticipate nothing but the best from him! He changes every day it seems. Now he's focusing on things and reaching for and kicking the objects on his play mat. He likes watching the football games and things outside. I realized today though that we don't lay him down flat on his back very much. He's usually in the swing or bumbo seat or with one of us. He can't learn to roll over if he's never on his back! It's been fun seeing him change and it's happening so quickly! What not happening so quickly anymore is my weight loss! I'm right in that awkward stage where maternity clothes are too big but most of my old clothes are a little too small. No one ever tells you that pregnancy will require 3 separate wardrobes before it's over! Oh well - I'll survive!

On a more serious note, there was a bomb that went off yesterday at a law office across the street from the courthouse. I was at one of the high schools when it happened so I didn't hear it. We have a friend who works in that building who, thank God, is okay but it was a super scary situation for everyone. It was a crazy man whom the lawyers had a case against. Somehow that seemed like a good way to remedy the situation and instead he ended up dead. There was one law partner that was burned badly, but no one else was seriously hurt. I feel bad saying it but I'm not sad that he's dead b/c now there is no opportunity for him to be released b/c of some technicality in his case.

Anyways back to cuteness here are more pictures of my big 3 month old, 16 lb 25.5 inch baby!

Yes he really is that white! The flash bounces off that pearly skin! What did anyone expect coming from Curtis and I?!


Those cheeks are awesome!

Watching the Carolina game with Nana!

Mr. Pumpkin. This was supposed to be his Halloween outfit but it was a little short for him last week when we went to Curtis' office Chili Cook off. I love the leaf collar!

This was his first day in shoes! He has the cutest little Nike's and his track suit was perfect for the cool day out. I know I'm biased but this kid is stinkin' cute!

He's so urban in his hoodie! hahaha

Big man in his Bumbo seat - which he is a pro at now!
