3 Months

Today is the boys' 3-month birthday. They are really starting to show distinct personalities and are interacting with things much more.  Here are a few observations about the boys at 2 months along with some photos.

Magnus:

• Moved to 0-3 M clothing
• Has a bald spot on his head from lying in the same direction all the time
• Loves bath time and bubble baths in particular
• Loves staring at all light fixtures
• Enjoys looking at his reflection
• Laughs in his sleep
• Notices his brother and smiles at him
• Laughs when doing Itsy Bitsy Spider, and will laugh in anticipation when you start to play it
• Sucking on his hands to soothe himself but hasn't quite figured out his thumb
• Lifts his head up during tummy time
• Reaches and grabs for toys
