Movie Monday: James Can Use His Hands!

On Saturday, something clicked and James figured out how to grab things (or, bat at them, at least)!

Here's a video of him "reading" with Daddy!

Weeeeelll, apparently blogger is having issues, so I'm embedding from Facebook. If you aren't friends with me on FB you probably can't view it. SOOORRRY. I will try to change it in the future. Anyway, here we are!

Three Months Old

Yesterday James was three months old!

The day before his three month birthday, he started holding onto and playing with toys. I was very excited and happy about this.

Today I put a little warm water in a sippy cup and let him chew on it. He really liked that a lot!!

It is starting to get warmer and I'm starting to be able to take him out a bit more. I can't wait for all the snow to melt and to really be able to take him on longer walks!

I can't believe it is nearly March, and that my baby is already three months old!

He is starting to babble more and have a lot more to say. Still no rolling over, which is aokay with me! He is starting to get better at holding up his head and shoulders during tummy time, though, which is nice. He still really doesn't like tummy time but hopefully now that he is getting stronger and can hold on to toys he'll start to enjoy it more.

I am really enjoying being home with him. I love hanging out with him and he has recently started to laugh, which is really fun and motivating, hehe! His Dad is really good at making him laugh!

It is awesome to watch him learn and grow and change so fast--I can't wait to see what he'll be doing a month from now!

Rattle!

James just held on to a rattle, shook it around and chewed on it for at least two mins before he dropped it! He has never held on to toys before, I was so proud of him!

James' First Bath in Videos

My first attempt at posting videos on the blog . . .

James had his first bath on Monday. We have the Prince Lionheart Washpod, and it was definitely fun washing James.

Here is the before bath video:


And here he is getting in for the first time:


Here he is in the bath! He seems to like it a lot actually, despite the fact that he's a bit too small for the bath, LOL:






And here he is all clean and getting dried up in his Pooh towel, hehe.


My only complaint about the whole experience was that I didn't get to squeeze him enough while he was all naked and cute. Therefore I've decided our next bath, we'll all get in the big tub together! There will be no video of this, LOL!
