Fortunately there were no shots this month (he will get the same series of 3 shots that he had at 2 months during his 4-month visit in June). The doctor said CJ looks great. She commented that he was very expressive and chatty but also seemed to have a bit of stranger anxiety because of the way he reacted towards her. She said this was actually a good thing because it means he shouldn't have it later around 9 months when most babies have it.
At three months CJ is an excellent nighttime sleeper. He goes to sleep around 8:30 and sleeps for 10-12 hours. Daytime naps are another story. He doesn't like to nap during the day, and when he does, it's anywhere but in his crib.
CJ's big discovery this month was his feet. He began starring at them when in his stroller or propped up on the couch and is now reaching for and grabbing them. He also brings his hands together and reaches for and holds on to objects. And, he smiles more, makes squealing noises, and laughs too (and not just in his sleep).
Here are a few photos from the day after CJ's 3-month birthday at our Boogie Baby workout and music class combo in the park.
(no those aren't mom's legs, but CJ sure did seem to enjoy this)
