3 Months

For a little guy Benjamin has been very busy.  So far he has doubled his birth weight, learned to roll over, found his hands and fingers  though he doesn’t suck his thumb or fingers – he just gums his entire fist!, started smiling and laughing, started (and then stopped) sleeping “through the night”, and learned how to grasp a rattle.  He has continued to be an easy-going baby even though he has started teething and is obviously uncomfortable at times.  He is starting to prefer to be propped up in a sitting position rather than lying down and he likes standing up as well… very similar to Julia’s preferences at his age so maybe we’ll have another early walker?  He has also won over his sister, as evidenced by his buddy in the picture below.  She doesn’t share Bunny lightly!

And I can’t resist posting this picture as well.  It’s going to be hard to say “no” to this smile as he gets older!
