How big!

It has been amazing watching Graham grow both physically and developmentally. He will be 12 weeks old this Sunday, weighs just over 12 pounds, and is about 23 inches "tall". The doctor noticed how active he is and suggested that he is about as strong as a 4 month old already! He just can't sit still!
Yes, I have been training him :)
Graham has found his hands and his hands have found his mouth! At least he has begun to soothe himself, this has been helpful when he wakes up early in the morning and manages to "Houdini" his way out of his swaddle. We can hear him sucking away at his fingers.
Graham is also very alert and interested in everything. He loves to watch TV... which means Mom can't watch Jersey shore (and all the other bad TV shows) while feeding him anymore :( it's probably for the best for all of us!
Lately, we have begun to see his personality emerge, he is a happy little guy and smiles and coohs frequently (between his Reflux outbursts). He talks up a storm... just like his mom and loves to be sung to. 3 little birds (Bob Marley) and The Wheels on the Bus seem to always get a good reaction. In desperation for more items on the bus, I have combined the wheels on the bus with Old McDonald for an interesting rendition... kind of reminds me of the buses in Jamaica!
