3 months

We have been having so much fun these past few weeks. Remi has been a happy happy boy.
We had our first road trip. Success. We went up to Oroville to see Grandma Bonnie. Remi did better than I expected him to in the car for the 6 hr drive. On the trip up and the trip home he was good up to the last hour then he was over it. (so was I) Having Brooks in the car was a huge help. I dropped her off to visit family in the Sacramento area. At grandma's we hung out with Aunt Tammy and Uncle Mick, went to church (and did not make a peep the whole service) and enjoyed all the yummy food grandma prepared us. Remi was such a happy boy and gave everyone who smiled at him a smile back. The goofy voices helped too I am sure.

It's amazing how fast this little guy is growing. He is 14 lbs and an active little boy. He is usually wearing 6 month tops and 3 months bottoms. He's got a puggy little neck that usually has leftovers from the previous meal. He's a spitty kid and it's amazing he can still grow so much for how much he spits up sometimes. We are prepared and are getting quite good at catching it. We use a lot of bibs and burp rags =) We have just started doing baths in the big bath tub. He enjoys kicking and playing and this saves my kitchen sink area from getting flooded.
Remi is slowly getting into toys. He loves his play mat with the toys hanging over him. We position him so when he kicks he can make the whole thing shake and move. It's super fun. It may be a little early for the Jonny Jumper... but he loves to stand and enjoys it for a short while. Tummy time is getting better and he is enjoying it for longer. Just these past few days he has been scrunching his legs way in that he rolls over to his sides. I think his number one toy may be his hands and a burp rag.
Remi is finally noticing the dogs. He looks at them and watches their tails wag. The dogs are still not really sure what to think about Remi but they do love seeing us get the stroller ready... That's their signal to get excited.

Shaw and Remi playing before dad-d00 had to go back to work. We have lots of fun with dad while he's home. I love seeing these boys together and enjoy our family time. Shaw and I were able to get some time away from our little buggaboo. Brooks and Jared watched Remi one afternoon and Shaw and I went for a motorcycle ride and out to lunch at local fish restaurant Pier 46. It was pretty fun and YUMMY. Another day while Grandma Thompson (MoMo) and Remi hung out we checked out a happy hour at Que Pasa... impressive place for Atascadero and my margarita was tasty

Amazing how much this little boy has grown on us... and it's only been 3 months.
