3 months old already!

Carter is officially 3 months old today (13 weeks). My how much he has changed in such a short period of time! He is much more social and not nearly so fussy!! He enjoys laughing, smiling at his reflection in the mirror (not unlike daddy!) and sucking on his fist. I am able to put him down now for longer periods of time which is a nice break for Mom. Yesterday his cousin Jonah's bumbo seat arrived and Carter sat up in it unassisted!

At 11 weeks Carter weighed 12 lbs 8 oz and was 23 3/4 inches long. He has the most adorable chubby thighs!

This coming Monday we will be doing a repeat EEG on Carter to determine if the seizures have stopped. I've been instructed that he has to be hungry and "sleep deprived" for the test - how fun! Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers!!

Here are some more recent photos of the little man.

Taken on our front porch Mother's Day weekend. We had our good friends Arnie, Chris, Lucky and Craig visiting from the Bay Area.


Our first trip to the zoo with our playmates. From left to right, Catherine & Abbey, Casey & Riley, Me & Carter. (notice all the little ladies are staring in Carter's direction!) :)

Carter chillin' with the ladies in his crib. To his left, Riley, to his right is Abbey. Carter is a very lucky man to be surrounded by such beautiful ladies!

We're very fortunate to have found great friends in our neighborhood who are also first time parents. Here are the parents (plus Carter asleep in his sling).
