9.5 weeks

This dude's a tank. At church today we met a 3 month old baby that also weighs 13 pounds, but looks way smaller. Oh boy, where will Nik be a month from now! But seriously, I hardly recognize this guy as my little baby. He's getting too big so fast! I love all of the random happy noises he's started making, and he is really getting to be more self sufficient - like he only has to be held 80% of the time as opposed to 90%! But I love doing it!

The little guy did great again at church. He eats during sacrament meeting time, is super alert and happy while Stas teaches his Primary class, and then sleeps during YW.

It is really exciting to start to see some patterns of behavior/routines to our day.

This morning Nikolai had wiggled around in his swing until he found this unusually comfortable position:
Whatever works little man!

He is adorable. You are adorable. I am glad you are all happy...though sad that you have to go back to work...though glad that you have a good job with insurance benefits...though sad that your job is so far away from me...though happy you are my friend...though...

Oh he is a big boy, Julie! Obviously your family is tall, but does your hubby have a tall family too? You will just have giant adorable children :)
