Recap: Month 3

1.23.2009

A few days ago we took Bean in for his two-month check-up. (Those of you quick with the math will realize that we were about 3.5 weeks late on that. Whoopsie!) Anyway, the doctor confirmed our nagging suspicions: Bean really and truly is a beefcake - in the 95th percentile across the board. I want to get him a onesie that says "Body By Boobie."

Despite his manly proportions, he's still our little Bean. About a week ago he discovered the trick to getting his thumb to land in his mouth. Mind you, he'll still attempt the whole fist, but gets great delight in just thumb sucking. I'm sure I'll be singing a different tune if he's still at it in some years, but for now he's as cute as the dickens doing it. And who am I to discourage my son's motor development?

Also filed under "be careful what you wish for" is his newly acquired ability to roll over. I know it's not a huge deal, but it means his mobility has begun. On the one hand, it'll be really fun to watch our little dude take off. On the other, I want him to stay my little Bean. It's bittersweet.

Damn this parenting anyway...
