3 Months

Asher is three months old today!

Here are a few updates..

Asher:

He is very social and wants you to talk to him all the time.
He loves it when Isaac is near him.
He runs his hands through his hair a lot!
He makes cute gurgling noises and will repeat himself if you do it back to him.
He's the only kid I know who LIKES Nose Frida. Maybe he's just starved for attention.
He eats 6-7 times a day and is up to roughly 15 lbs.
The most he's gone in between meals is 5 hours. Sometimes it's 2 1/2 though. Most of the time it is 3 1/2. We're not quite at a fixed schedule yet.
We've just moved up to size 2 diapers. That has helped the blow out situation quite a bit. :-)
He likes pulling Alex's chest hair, so he's been wearing socks as mittens a lot lately.
He likes when I sing You are my Sunshine. But, it's kind of a sad song, really.
He likes looking at

Not to forget the other little boy in my life...

Isaac:

He's recently discovered plugging his ears can change how much sound you hear. It's actually quite funny as he is doing it often.
He tells us what he wants by saying, "Want to play iPad, okay?" So when you say, "Isaac, would you like to play on the iPad?," he says, "All right!"
He narrates himself as he does things. He also drags out words. Like, a lot! "You can use step ssssssssttttooooo .......... ooooollll (step stool) to sit on."
He still doesn't drink milk - I keep trying every few months, but he'll take a sip and then ask for juice. I'll even put chocolate syrup in it.
He is really good at trying foods. He may not eat any more than that, but he'll try it.
He's still super into elevators. We have painters tape in several places around the house that I cut into an up triangle and a down triangle (for the call buttons) along with several small square buttons (for the floor selection buttons.) He uses them all the time.
He wants to play with Asher's toys. He'll even get on the play mat. I let him. He gets bored of it quickly and isn't hurting anything.
He loves to laugh and will start fake laughing until I actually laugh and then we end up giggling together.
He's learned what Zombies say, "BRAINS!" I think he thinks it's an animal b/c he then says, "What does a cow say, MOO!"
When we tell him 'no' about something, he'll respond with "Oh no!"
His vocabulary is getting so much bigger! Some of the recent words that he's used are:

He comments on just about everything: "This one has a window." (about an elevator, of course)
His favorite book is now Little Blue Truck. If we only had a book about elevators ;-)
He's a happy kid.
