3-month old today

Ah, I am a 3-month old already. That means I am technically no longer a newborn but an infant. Also, I've finally doubled my birth weight.

My birthday wish today is to be able to play with my cousin, uncles and aunts, and have grandpa and grandma hold me. Mommy said they all live far away, but maybe one day we'll move closer to them (or they to us). When will that be? I get jealous of cousin Esther who gets to play with her other cousins every week. I don't want to be left out =(

Hopefully Grandpa Charles can come visit me soon and play with me (now you know where I got my middle name from). And Grandma, even though I won't get to meet her, I'm sure she's watching from above praying for me. Maybe I imagine her cuddling with me that's why sometimes I smile out of the blue. Mommy said that her hugs were always warm hence she called her warm and fuzzy mommabear. I want some of that! Okay, okay, let's not get too sentimental now, I'm just gonna chill on the couch and do a big stretch of my fast-growing body. Too much thinking is causing me to lose more hair than I already have.

Maybe this weekend I will tell my birth story. It was pretty exciting for me, since I only get to go through it once.

say cheesy!

hihihihiiii.....heheeehaaa
that tickles!

My imaginary ice cream cone

It tastes good the first few seconds, and then it became sour, eww...

My favorite socks

I like these socks from Aunt Stella. Daddy has a pair like them that Mommy likes to wear. Sharka , the big-bellied surfer shark from Hawaii happens to blend in.

First tailgate party

What a crazy Saturday! My parents took me to my (and their) first tailgate party with Daddy's classmates and boy was it crowded. College Football is definitely the most celebrated thing in this city. We kept driving around and around in circles before we finally parked illegally. Daddy said we'll be quick so it's okay. Mommy got upset because it was hot, people were smoking and playing beer pong around me, and it was noisy. Daddy got upset because she bugged him about why she got upset. I got scared and started sweating, so I hugged mommy so tight and didn't move a hair.

The sun was so bright on my face I had to squint my eyes. The world around looked dirty orange. Was that a longhorn that I saw? This expression on my face pretty much sums up the afternoon. Grrr...

Hoahm.... I'm sleepy. Usually my days are pretty boring, but today, what a full day. Some people are coming over for kahlua pie tonight so I'm gonna go recharge now. zzzz...

Who is who?

Putting me next to Mommy's baby picture makes it obvious where my good looks come from. I'm sure a lot of my Daddy is also on my face but we don't have any baby photos of Daddy when he was my age.

My First Self Portrait

What's up everybody! Here I am sitting up against the couch with my homeboy, Moo Moo. Moo Moo's pretty cool; he's kind of aloof sometimes but I let him hang with me.

My Parents and I

Colorful picture of Daddy and Mommy with me!

See the proud smile on my parents' faces? I'm not looking at the camera because I'm about to execute my grand plan and pbwrrrtthh in my pants (see post below).

Getting Ready To The Mall

We're going to the mall to buy me some new clothes. However, we came back with nothing. Daddy says it's because he couldn't find anything cute. Mommy says he's just cheap. That's why I'm wearing the exact same thing in the next blog. But it's ok, I have a plan. If I out-poop my diaper and soil all my onesies, they'll have no choice but to buy me some new clothes.
