Andrew's Laugh

OK! Here is my most favorite video of Andrew laughing! From my phone so a little blurry, but makes me smile everytime I watch it! So darn cute! Turn up your volume!!! (From 9/8/09)

Rollie Pollie

Andrew is a rolling machine. I can't put him down today without him rolling over! Here is a short video ... the good one is too long...

WOO HOO!

15 Pounds

Alright, he did it! Andrew broke the 15 pound mark. Today at our hospital's weekly Mommy & Me class (Which I LOVE!) Andrew weighed in at 15 pounds 3 ounces. This boy is growing and mommy is gaining lots of muscle! At our class today, Andrew had a great time with his friend. He loves this other little 2 1/2 month old baby boy. They just stared at each other and Andrew made all sorts of noises and cooing to his little friend. It was adorable. I am so thankful to have such a happy (permagrin) baby boy :-) I'm not sure where he gets it from...

Sleep Changes

Andrew started changing some of his sleep behaviors recently and it makes me smile. He used to only fall asleep in our arms and if we put him down, he would wake up immediately. As of this week, he falls asleep anywhere! It's hilarious. The other day he was slightly whining, and I was in the kitchen and walked over to see him as he was playing on the floor. When I got there he had already zonked. Then today he was playing with his bouncy chair and seemed to be getting frustrated, so I went to move him and he was crashed. He is such a silly baby. I am learning that certain sounds signify that he is about to fall asleep :-)

Another Weigh-In

Enjoyed another wonderful New Moms Connection class at the hospital! So much fun! Each time we get our babies weighed. Andrew is progressing rapidly and weighed in at 14 pounds 13 ounces. WOW! I think he's bullking up for Football Season!!!

The State Fair

So the family and Aunt Natalie decided to head to the state fair on Labor Day, what an adventure! The weather was perfect and we were there from 12:30 until nearly 7:30! WOW! We walked, talked, sat and just enjoyed our time alot. Andrew does well, although he isn't a fan of big crowds and would much rather be carried and see what's going on around him rather than just watch from his stroller. Overall he did great. We were watching the roller derby ladies and he did not enjoy that one bit, but I have to admit they are a little scary (in that tough kind of way). Natalie found his ticklish spots and he would giggle and laugh so hard, it made my heart melt, so darn adorable.

3 Months Old!

Andrew turned 3 months old today. I am amazed at how much he has grown. He weighs 14 pounds 7 ounces. He LOVES to suck (strong) on his full fist, occasionally gaging himself. He smiles all the time. He is such a happy guy. He coos and even giggles. Our friends Tim and Kori were over and he kept giggling at Tim! I've got to get it on video tape. It is so cute. I love this stage. His personality is showing and he is so much fun, exhausting but fun. I am becoming more confident in going out with him and we went to a New Mom's Connection class at Salem Hospital today and that was a lot of fun.
