Three months old and finally sleeping better.

Among other things, Greyson turned 3 months. He has also started rolling over (back to front) and he can do small little belly-push-ups from his front. He is starting to discover what those things at the end of his arms are for... grabbing things and shoving them in his mouth. And Alex, some of your genes slipped in somehow because he is a big-time drooler. Every piece of clothing is soaked after an hour or two. Greyson has also been on 4 airplanes now. Luckily each of them was not full and we were able to leave him in the car seat and he slept the entire time. I'm still dreading the first time the flight is completely full and I have to hold him in my arms... crying and screaming is a definite possibility. And my favorite part of his development... Grey is finally sleeping longer than 2 hours at a time at night. We can usually get a 4 hour section of sleep, followed by a 3 hour section, followed by a 2 hour. Hooray!!


Today is a very big day for our friends having kids... Brandi and Michael's little girl Berlin just turned one... Andi and Charles are finding out the sex... and Matt and Steph are inducing this morning... stay tuned for the exciting conclusions.


Since he has started exploring the world around him a little more, I put together a bunch of new toys for Grey. He now has the following equipment in his arsenal of "awake-time-distraction-toys": Infant sit-up seat (bumbo), infant sit-up seat with toy trey attachment, 'discover and play' activity center, mobiles, play mats, bouncer, swing, jumper, walker. If you come over to our house, it looks like we are running an infant day care.


Two pictures in the walker...

This is a very nice smiling picture in the sit-up thingy with toy trey...

This is the bumbo (Patty tells me that "anyone with kids knows what a bumbo is, so you don't have to explain it")

This is me and Grey playing on the floor.

We've seen bathtime pictures before, but this one shows his new favorite meal... hand-sandwich.

Tia MacKenzie bought him a very cute UC Davis onsie. Here are couple pictures. Notice the extra-fat cheeks
