Here's how Cooper is doing compared to the milestones in What to Expect the First Year:
Stats:
Weight: I'm guessing between 15-16 lbs.
Diapers: Size 2
Clothes: Still some 0-3 months, all of his 3 months, and a lot of his 3-6 months. I'll be washing all of his 6 month stuff this week!
Schedule: We're still on the 3.5 hour schedule.
7:00 - 7:15 up for the day/eat
8:00 -8:30 down for a nap
10:30 eat
11:30 down for a nap
2:00 eat
3:00-3:15 down for nap
5:00 - 5:30 up to eat
6:30ish cat nap with Mommy or Daddy snuggling him
7:40 bath
8:00 bottle and straight to bed
2:00 or 3:00 eat
Cooper can do all of the things that a three month old baby should be able to do:
-on stomach, lift head up 45 degrees
Cooper can do all of the things that a three month old baby will probably be able to do:
-laugh out loud (he's still working on it - it's more like a dog panting - but he's trying!)
-on stomach, lift head up 90 degrees
-squeal in delight (I LOVE this!)
-bring both hands together
-smile spontaneously
-follow an object held about 6 inches above his face and follow it 180 degrees
Cooper can do some of the things that a three month old may possibly be able to do:
-hold head steady when upright
-roll over (one way) [he actually can go both ways!]
There are three things that Cooper can not do from the "may possibly" section:
-on stomach, raise chest, supported by arms
-grasp a rattle held to backs or tips of fingers
-pay attention to an object as small as a raisin (again - I just haven't tried this one!)
Cooper can do some of the things that a three month old baby may even be able to do:
-bear some weight on legs when held upright
-keep head level with body when pulled to sitting
-turn in the direction of a voice, particularly mommy's
-say "ah-goo" or similar vowel-consonant combinations
-razz (make a wet razzing sound)
Cooper does not do one thing from the "may even be able to" section:
-reach for an object
My little man sure is growing!

Oh Mr. Cooper... you are cute ;)
Kaden is a spitter too. I'm hoping when we go for the 4 month shots, he's still gaining enough weight.
I can't believe how quickly our boys are growing!
