Mega Cuteness!

4 Months

Sorry for the long break since the last post. Adjusting to the new schedule with work has been a challenge. We have had an exciting month. Fisher pulled through the swine flu with no problems and actually had a pretty mild case so we were very lucky for that. He loves daycare and I think they love him too. He enjoys watching all of the older kids and playing with his little girlfriend Avery. They have nicknamed him bookworm because he likes to hold books and stare at them like he's reading. He and Avery are about the same age so they put them together a lot and the teacher told me Friday that they were both sitting in their bumbos and Avery was trying to hold Fisher's hand....too cute!

Fisher is much more verbal these days and has picked up quite a squeal from the other kids. It's really cute! He is putting everything in his mouth and kicking and grabbing his feet a lot. He continues to bring us so much joy and we are more and more in love with him every day! Here is a link to a few pics from the past month including his Halloween photos! Enjoy!

3 Months

Wow, I can't believe my little boy is already 3 months old! He is getting so big! Month three was the most exciting month for us by far. Fisher has made so much progress and is more like a little person now and his personality is starting to show. He is happiest in the mornings (he definitely does not get that from his parents!) and at bath time and he is "talking" up a storm. When we talk to him, he tries to immitate sounds and this week he started gurling and blowing bubbles which is super cute! This month he also started lifting his head during tummy time and his strength is really building. He pushes with his feet when you stand him up and grabs at objects and puts things in his mouth (his favorite being trying to eat his whole fist!). We think he's almost ready for the jumper but he's not quite steady in it yet. We're hoping that will coax his first laugh out of him because as happy as he is, we haven't had a real giggle yet.

Last week was my first week back at work and Fisher's first in daycare. It was definitely harder on me that on him. According to his teachers, he was a star student! He took his bottles well, played, and napped. It is so hard to leave him every morning but at least I know he is in a good place and I don't have to worry about him. There are 8 kids in his class but only one other 3 month old so he gets a lot of attention and the teachers all seem to love him! I think this is because he flirts with them, they all tell me how he smiles for them - I guess they don't realize he does this for just about anyone these days :) He is quite the little ladies man! Now that I am back at work the postings may be a little fewer but I will try to keep the blog updated as much as possible so you can all see his progress! Below is a little time lapse for you...

Month 3 Progress

Fisher continues to be more alert and loves talking to himself and everyone around him. This past week we had a tummy time breakthrough...he finally held his neck up and now he loves tummy time! He is also grabbing at things more.
