A Little Over Three Months

These little men have been with us now for a little over three months. It's amazing. They're now starting to smile, and almost laugh. There's a lot of cooing and vocalizing going on, too. There's been a few times when I've had "coo conversations" with them. Or, at least it seemed that way. It's hard to tell what's interaction and what's coincidence, but it's all pretty damn cool.

Last night, Oscar rolled from his tummy to his back, three times in a row. That was pretty exciting. He's a little mover. They both have the crawling motion down with their legs, but they're not strong enough yet to pick themselves up onto their hands and knees. Their head control is getting much better, though, and soon, I think, they'll be able to sit up right without leaning against something.

Both boys are over 13 pounds, but it feels like 20. I suppose that feeling is just relative to the five pounds at which they were born. Hard to imagine they tripled their weight in three months.

Still no more hair on either of them than they were born with, though Petar's hair looks a little more fuzzy.

Here is perhaps my favorite picture of them, so far:
