Starting solids

We started Logan on solids shortly after he turned 5 months and he's loving it!  So far he's tried rice cereal, sweet potato, apples, and butternut squash.  Wai-po has been making hope made baby food for him and he's liked everything we've fed him so far.  He's so eager for the next spoonful, sometimes even crying out for more.  Looks like we have another good eater in the making!

Swings

My parents tried Logan on the Washington Park swings shortly after he turned 4 months and apparently he liked it right away.  I didn't get a chance to put him in one myself until recently when we all went to the park together.  Nathan was there too and really enjoyed pushing Logan on the swing for the first time.

Next up, slides...

4 month check up

Logan turned 4 months on Christmas eve (happy 1st Christmas Logan!)... but we didn't have his 4 month doctor's check up until 2 weeks later due to Dr.Brown being on holiday.  He's doing great and all laughs and giggles.  He weighed in at almost 18 pounds (no wonder my arms are so sore these days!)  Our main concern was a bump that we had felt behind his left ear and Dr.Brown reassured us it's nothing to worry about.  He also noticed a couple of birthmarks (one big one near his belly button, and another small one on this back).  

Drool, so much drool...

Logan is going through some major teething and all the teething toys are starting to come out.  The inevitable constant drooling has also started and it feels like he can get a bib soaking wet in 5 minutes.  He loves it when we rub his bottom gums with our finger.  Anything he can get his hands on, it's usually straight to the mouth.

First haircut

Following Chinese tradition, we shaved Logan's head at 100 days.  James is an expert at it now this being the 3rd time.  Logan didn't like the buzzer very much and cried through a lot of it, and doesn't help that it's middle of winter right now!  I do like the much more even look (instead of only being bald in the front).

Yummy fingers

Logan has become very interested in his fingers and can often be heard sucking on them.  He seems to have better control with the right arm, maybe a righty?

Month Three: Baby talk

Logan has become much more interactive in his 3rd month.  He would make "ah" and "woo" sounds at anyone who's playing with him.  Sometimes he'll even initiate a "conversation".

He's grown out of the bassinet now so we set up the crib a few weeks ago.  The wind-up mobile can usually keep him entertained for 10 minutes or so and he like "talking" to it too.

Another wonderful milestone is sitting in the highchair.  Even though Logan can't eat anything yet, he likes to join us at the dinner table during meals, and in general watch the chaos that's around him.

Last but not least, Logan rolled over for the first time (from front to back).  It surprised all of us since he doesn't get that much tummy time (a few minutes a day).  James happened to be holding the camera and even caught it in a video, yay!
