Rollin

Scott rolled over on Sunday, but he was on the couch, which has a slight decline.
Then Tuesday he did it on the flat floor. I broke out the camera and he did it again. I think his huge diaper booty gets him off balance so it's easier to flop himself over. He kicks, kicks, kicks, then (I edited some kicking out) he rolls!
He's only three months old! He doesn't belong rolling over! I am not ready for him to grow up yet!

13 Weeks

This smiley guy is wearing almost all 3-6 month clothes now.
He had more visitors this week. Ari and Nathan came over a couple times while they were in town.
We were invited to go strawberry picking one morning. 
I think he could be a farmer with those overalls.
He slept in the car and was happy while we picked . . . probably thinking about eating the strawberries. 
Scott came to pick me up from book club dressed as Pooh Bear. He was a hit.
His hair is still mullet/male pattern baldness style. 
Luckily babies look cute bald.
Lots of our baby shower guests are Sharks fans and Scott is excited to start wearing the (5) onesies in his new size.
He was lunging forward and grabbing the pillow then eating it. I'll have to add a video of that later because it was hilarious.
After learning to hold his keys, he's all grown up and off to work. Britta was happy to find someone to make her look tan.
Scott acting like a puppy to match his pajamas.
Or jams, as he calls them.
He looks up to his dad. Literally and figuratively. 
Scott being trained on how to grill.
Licking his lips in anticipation.
I heard him whimper during a nap, but he never cried so I went to check on him.
He was sucking his thumb with his little bum in the air. 
This is our typical night: sleepy John and wide-awake Scott.
Being tickled.
He started sticking his tongue out, but always to his right.
Must be something tasty over there.
And a final development was finding the cute baby in the mirror.
He was all smiles as he gabbed it up with his new friend.

3 Months

Scott is growing too fast for my taste. Around 15 pounds and 25 inches by home measurements.
 He's also able to do more now, such as grab his Bubba cow.
 He is a sweet and happy boy.
 His favorite things to do, besides eating, seem to be kicking and talking.
We love watching and playing with him.

New Overalls

My mom bought Scott this new outfit and there were too many pictures I liked to narrow it down enough for his weekly post.
 He looks so different with hats on.
 Complete with matching shoes.
 I made it on the blog!
 Perhaps I should work on a matching outfit for myself next.
 He's such a little snuggler.
 And it's easy to get a smile out of him now.
 John was reading on the couch and Scott wanted to join him.
 Here he is chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool.
He loves his new big boy clothes.

JCPenney

We took Scott for 3-month pictures yesterday. We pick them up in one week, but here's a sneak peek:
We think they turned out perfectly!

Party Sunday

After church (and a meeting and home teaching for John) we went to Karen and Alan's.
We had a family dinner for Lucas' third birthday.
Before every present, Lucas looked at the camera and said "cheese!"
Then we had Dick's burnt almond cake for dessert.
He loved being sung to, but had some rough times trying to blow the candles out.

Then we went over to Garrett's mission homecoming get together.
Ari came into town for it and met Scott for the first time.
Scott was passed around and adored by everyone. Britta got a little turn in as well.
When we came home John and Scott both crashed.

12 Weeks

Scott loves playing with his dad.
He is getting more expressive
and vocal.
We went to the Harlines to make crepes one night.
John learned how to lasso
He was good at it.
Scott started researching for his upcoming Disneyworld trip.
One day John was carrying him on his shoulders and I warned that he had just finished a 4-ounce bottle.
Needless to say my warnings were not heeded. Poor John was slimed.
Those chubby cheeks were soon forgiven.
And they went back to being best buds.
I dressed Scott one morning to discover his clothes were too small. Sad day! This one's a newborn outfit, but most of the 0-3 month clothes are snug, too.
Now he's naked.
Just kidding!
He has plenty of 3-6 month clothes he's excited to wear.
This is his last time wearing his (newborn) Cardinals onesie. See that big belly?!
Next week my goal is to get a picture of Scott with me in it!
