Three months, how things have changed!

Three months ago today, Thing 2 was born. He has grown so much in these past three months. He is beginning to sleep through the night (2 nights in a row now!!). He laughed out loud at me today as I was imitating the noises he makes. He is awake more during the day and more observant. He loves to stare at his older brother and "talk" to him. He has found his hands and enjoys chewing on his fingers. The Mr. and I believe that Thing 2 is trying to sit up. He is a little young but really doesn't want to lean against anything. Each time he tries, he tends to fall to one side. Don't worry, Thing 2, you will get the hang of it one day and will be sitting like a pro in no time!
Here he is at 3 months of age.


Of course, I can't give an update on Thing 2 without giving an update on Thing 1. Thing 1 has done very well with his potty training. Before Thing 2 was born, Thing 1 was starting to get the hang of using the potty, but once Thing 2 came along, Thing 1 went back to old habits. Now, Thing 1 has the whole potty training thing down. He can tell us when he has to go and does not holler when we tell him he needs to sit on the potty. This past weekend we went on errands and to church as usual. However, this weekend was far from usual when it comes to our outings. This time we had to see the inside of every bathroom of every store that we went into. We also went to the bathroom at church twice. Each time we took him to the bathroom, he would ask "Are we going to the girls' bathroom or the boys' bathroom?" Each time we had to explain that if Daddy takes him, he will go to the boys' bathroom and if Mommy takes him, he will go to the girls' bathroom. And each time we explained, we always got the famous "Why?"
