Do-Re-Mi, We Have Two Beautiful Babies!: Quarter of a Year Club

Patrick is an official member of the Quarter of a Year Club already. On December 9th, he turned 3 months old! I can't even remember what life was like before him, just three months ago. Here's a picture of the stud muffin and daddy in front of the Christmas tree.

3 months old today!

Patrick has changed so much in the last couple months. He is such a joy and we have so much fun spending every day together. New developments include lots of talking (all kinds of noises!), starting to laugh, reaching and grasping, flirting, sucking on his hand, and lots of interactions with mommy and daddy. He keeps himself busy on his play mat batting and grasping at his toys for about an hour at time, which I really appreciate! The other day he actually played on his mat for so long that he tuckered himself out and fell asleep. That was a welcome first!

Passed out!

I know that everyone just wants to see pictures, so here you go:

Flirting with Daddy. Patrick and Daddy miss each other very much
when Daddy has to work long days.

On a walk in the redwoods with mom and
the doggies

Tummy time! (I put him on his tummy)

Nakey time is still a favorite :) Patrick has figured out how to
roll onto his side. Pretty soon he'll be on his tummy.

Post-bath hair do

Still has his beautiful blue eyes. Fingers crossed!
Can't say as much for his hair. Looking a bit bald like Grandpa Nakamoto these days!

So Patrick is doing a wonderful job of sleeping at night. Usually, he'll sleep for about 8 hours, wake up to eat, then go back to sleep for a few more hours. He is an angel! The only downside is that he doesn't nap much during the day. He typically takes 2-3, 20 minute naps a day. Needless to say, he keeps me busy during the day!
