two & a half months

 

• Hasn't started getting the baby rolls yet, but his cheeks sure are getting bigger. 

• Starting to figure out how his body works. Over the past few weeks he has mastered his tongue. It goes in and out all the time. Derek and him love to sit and stick their tongues out at each other. First Derek, then Evan. 

• Right now he is working hard on making his arms and hands do what he wants them to do. He has realized he can make them move, but gets so frustrated when they don't grab the thing he wants. We have started hanging toys from his car seat and he just swings and swings his arms at them until he final can grab on......and then he never lets go.

• Fabulous sleeper. Usually one night a week we are lucky enough to have him sleep through the night (always Derek's night, never mine). The rest of the week he gets up once, has a drink, and is right back to sleep. 

• Smiles all the time. He has decided he likes the rest of us and smiles for everyone, not just Derek. The worst is when I'm holding him and while looking at something else realize he is smiling at me and I've missed it.....I hate missing smiles. 

• He has started closing his eyes when Abby and Sydney get close because they are always kissing him and dangling their hair in his eyes. Poor guy gets at least 30 kisses a day from each sister. Every time they enter and leave a room with him in it they HAVE to kiss him. Do you think they like him?

• Evan is an absolute joy to be around. He is calm and patient and really only cries when it is absolutely necessary. 

• He is very curious and is always checking out everything going on around him. I keep telling the girls he is watching and learning from them, so they better set a good example....sometimes it works, other times they just roll their eyes and keep on yelling.
