How Can So Much Come Out of Somone So Little?

Contrary to my prior post, we had to visit Dr. Huger yesterday. (He only weighs 15lbs 10 oz…Surprisingly, we overestimated.) Isaac has the stomach flu! Friday when I picked Isaac up from daycare they mentioned that Isaac had thrown up, but they didn’t call because he was completely happy and not running a fever. Of course, when they told me this, I thought they meant that he had spit up. Let’s face it…Isaac has always been a spitter, so this didn’t concern me. Well, Tuesday night…HOLY MOLY…. Puking Rally! It was on him, on me, on the couch, on the floor… it was everywhere! How can so much come out of someone so little? Being the happy little guy that he is, he pukes, then smiles and continues on with his day. Although the stomach flu doesn’t seem to be upsetting Isaac, hopefully it will pass soon!

The Third Month Montage

Stats:*
Age: 3 months
Weight: 16 lbs…WOW!
Length: 26 ½ inches
* These stats were measured by mom and dad because we didn’t have to see Dr. Huger this month. It is pretty exciting for us not to visit the pediatrician because we made way too many visits the first two months.


Isaac is beginning to… sleep on his side, roll over, make friends at daycare, giggle at mom and dad, sit with assistance, identify objects and grasp them and put himself to sleep in his crib at naptime.

Isaac has mastered… smiling, talking, and playing with mom and dad. (All right… I admit, he might do these things with just about anyone.)

Isaac loves…playing on the floor with mommy and daddy, zerberts/raspberries on his belly, tickling, daddy’s rap songs (Dad tries to keep this G rated), his play gym, the daycare’s “Stargazer” and bouncy seat.

Isaac currently dislikes…TUMMY TIME. (If you recall, Isaac disliked tummy time last month too!)

Names we call him…Munchkin (Ironic?) and Bud.
