Anson 3.0

Anson is 3 months old!  And he's had a busy week trying to prove that he's getting bigger.  This week he has:

• moved up into 3-6 month size clothes
• smiled at himself in the mirror
• pushing up constantly with his legs
• developed a gurgling sound in the back of his throat to "talk" in lieu of his cooing
• brought toys to his mouth to slobber on
• rolled over back to side in both directions
• drooled enough to start wearing bibs
• chewed on his first frozen teething toy, and
•  nearly laughed when we tried to tickle him (sort of an "a-a-a").

Exhibit A: 8/17/10 Anson got his toy to his mouth all on his own for the first time!

Exhibit B: 8/19/10 Semi-rolling and throaty talking. (warning: the clip is 4 minutes long - sorry, I didn't take the time to edit it down.)

He makes his throaty sound first thing in the morning to let me know he's awake and ready to play or any other time he wants to "talk".  And when I make that sound back at him he gets excited as if to say, "Now we're speaking the same language!".

Next we're working on training to take a bottle and actually getting out audible giggles...
