I am 3 months old! Week 12

Milestone this week! Gabe is 3 months old, wow where has the time gone?

We have noticed that Gabe is now reaching out to the hanging toys off his capsule and giving them a belt, his favourite yellow ducky and the green turtle. It's the poor turtle on the left he is giving a good left hook! We are wondering if he's going to be a southpaw.

Gabe is so proud of himself when he belts the turtle, he give a little satisfied exclaimation when he bops it.


Gabes two hanging friends, ducky is a favourite. Green turtle gets bopped regularly.


Tuesday
Tuesday with the mummies walking group leaves us a bit tuckered out by the end of the day. I didn't get to cross the road for PT training, Gabe needed to be convinced he had to have a decent nap. Freckles was again outside my bedroom window squeaking at 20 to 5, she really thinks we should be going across the road to training. Poor poochie. Thursday seems to work so far during the week. We will work out this Tuesday walking group yet.

 Wednesday
Gabe was weighed in at the clinic on Wednesday 12 weeks and 4 days. He is now 6.2kg, 60 cm long and his head is 40cm. The MCHN's were loving his smiles and he was busy checking out the room and looking from nurse to nurse. (we had 2!) They loved his MCN's (Modern Cloth Nappies) they had never seen a bub in one before. Today he was wearing his lovely soft minky's, so nice to run your fingers over. Today was a 'cloth' day, and as we were heading out, I didn't resort to the disposables, we just packed our MCN's and wet bag for the dirty's and headed out. It was successful! So we try to spend our time in cloth nappies. My last fronteer is the night nappy. Imagine a slightly bulkier version of the pretty MCN's Gabe wears. They have a waterproof outter cover over the top. Fingers crossed we have a successful night and no leaks.

We are really sitting up well now, Gabe regularly gets propped up on the pillows and he sits there and chats away to me. He is growing up so fast! The weather is warming up nicely too & I can get away with him relaxing in his singles and t-shirts now.




Singlet wearing, you can't see the MCN in this piccie.
