Im starting to get sick of this whole ‘weeks’ thing. So we will switch over to months – Wil is about 3.5 months now. The first 3 months of life are sometimes referred to as the 4th trimester (Which mathematically makes no sense. The 4th quadmester maybe?). Basically Wil is still adjusting to being outside the womb and has no idea what the f*ck is going on until about this time. We’ve spent a lot of time soothing, swaddling, and singing in the last few months and I think Wil has finally decided that the real word ain’t so bad. He cries less and less and is smiling more and more. Id go as far to say hes a honest-to-goodness ‘BABY’.
Exhibit A:
Blurry, but happy, baby. Hes laughing too – we have a few videos of it that Ill get Phil to post soon. The last few weeks have been pretty uneventful. I go to a baby play group once a week now and we are still taking lots of walks. We STILL dont have the Jetta back, so I stay pretty close to home most days and then we run errands at night or on weekends. Im very excited to get a car back, then I can run errands during the day and spend more quality time at home. Hopefully we’ll get it next week. Its been 68 days since we were a two car family. Sheesh.
Anyway, like I said, pretty uneventful. Wil loves to sit out on the stoop and watch the leaves blow and cars drive by.
Barney enjoys it too. He also watches the car go by from the couch inside, but the other day he fell behind the couch into the window well and couldnt get out. I thought it was pretty hilarious.
We go to the farmers market on sunday mornings. Its under the overpass in downtown baltimore.
We went to a street fair where we needed an emergency clothing change. This is what was in the diaper bag:
Yellow short-sleeved onesie. Blue jacket and dinosaur socks. We bought the leggings at the fair because it was cold. We looked for a hat but couldnt find one. Parents of the year over here. We also snapped this gem – this one is for you, mom:
We’ve gone hiking a few times:
Other than that, Its been some of this:
And a little of that:
Life is good, my friends!
22 pictures in this post people!! Im getting better! I feel like you can even see it in the progression of photos – Wil is no newborn anymore! Hes so alert and interactive now. He loves to study faces and make noises. He is starting to grab things and then put them directly in his mouth. Hes rolling over more frequently and loves it when I sing songs to him.
