Playing around

Sean is now sitting up in his bumbo chair and even standing when we hold him.  The video is after he slept for 9 hours! He woke up and wanted to talk up a storm and play peek-a-boo.

Big Boy

Sean is 3 months old today, from what the literature says we no longer have a newborn but now an infant.   He still is being a little camera shy with all his "talking" but we did capture a little clip.  He is also beginning to hold on to his blanket and play with it.  

Yesterday we were supposed to go to Billings to meet Grandpa Jim, Richelle and Larisah for the first time, however, weather and bad roads kept us home.   Hopefully the weather will cooperate next time. 

Hello

Sean is almost 3 months old and seems to be changing everyday.  He recently found his voice and is making all kinds of new noises and really mimicking Ethan and I.  I've tried to get video of it but as soon as the camera comes out he gets interested in it and stops "talking".  Hopefully I'll have better luck this weekend.

Head Held High

Sorry it has been so long since my last post.  Back to work full time doesn't allow for much extra time.  Sean is doing great!  As you can see he is holding his head and chest up very well, he is even beginning to roll from his stomach to his back;  back to stomach hasn't been mastered yet but that is because he is more interested in sucking on his hands.

We have really gotten over the fussiness, now we see more smiles and curiosity which has been wonderful.  He even has been sleeping for 5-7 hours at a time!

Good sleep

I'm probably going to jinx myself by posting this but oh well!  Sean has been sleeping for 4-5 hours at a time, which has led to him being a very happy baby when he wakes up in the morning.  It also has been wonderful since I'm back at work, I can actually function!

Back to work

Yesterday was my first day back to work.  It felt good to be back, however, I missed Sean very much.  He did well at daycare for the first day.  The hardest thing was that he wasn't able to tell me what he did all day or how he liked it.  It's so hard to judge how he likes it when you only see him a few minutes at a time in the environment.  He seemed really happy when he got home and he slept for 5 straight hours last night so I guess that is another good sign.  We'll see how day 2 goes.

6 Years

Today Ethan and I have been married for 6 years! It seems like yesterday that we were planning the big day.  I couldn't have asked for a more wonderful man to have in my life.  He is a great friend, husband and father.  Here is a look back at our time together.

G'ma in the House

Grandma Barb came to visit us for a few days during her winter vacation.  I think her and Sean really enjoyed hanging out and it gave me a chance to run a few errands without having to load and unload a car seat.  Also it was great practice for when I have to go back to work next week, I think it's going to be harded than I originally thought.  The one thing Sean found to be a real snooze were our pinocle games.  Hope you all had a safe and happy New Year!
