First Christmas
posted on 12/24/2007
It's hard to believe that Michael is three months old and that we are celebrating his first Christmas. Where does the time go?
In the last month Michael has changed so much that he is no longer recognizable as that frail, tiny little baby that was hooked up to all those monitors. In fact, he's quite the little chunky monkey now.
Developmentally speaking, he appears to be ahead of where he is supposed to be. I get an email each week telling me what my baby should be doing this week, but most of the time, Michael has been performing that task for a week or two already. As an example, he's supposed to start grasping items this week. This is something he's being doing for at least two weeks. Also, he is already trying to talk. Yeah, it's gibberish, but it's not a simple "coo." He will string 8-10 sounds together at a time. He's also good at taking turns talking, and there are several words he repeats. (I have no idea what Err-Wig is, but it is VERY important to Mikey).
Every moment I spend with that kid brings more joy and amazement. This from the woman who was freaked out about being pregnant again - LOL!
