So it has been a while since I have updated on the baby Magpie, but for good reason, Daddy and Mommy got married! :D
I managed to plan our wedding throughout the pregnancy and for 3 months after, I am pretty proud of that. However in the mean time I have been mommying and we do have updates! Magpie is just now discovering his hands, he spends quite a few minutes noticing them and what looks like signing the alphabet. It is fascinating. In the last month he has figured out how to roll from back to front. He will do it a couple times in a day then forget for a few days and relearn all over again. His chirping has become more frequent and much louder. It is getting hard to tell when he is just babbling and when he is crying out for attention. He has discovered that his fists are DELICIOUS! They are almost always in his mouth. Though he is almost regularly knitting his brow and giving us his scowl smiles are a lot easier to prompt from him and absolutely amazing at that. The giant full body toothless grin is my favorite thing in the world. In the last week or so I have been showing him his reflection and he has been responding with said grin and then hiding his face, who would have thought my son would be shy. I do however believe that his own reflection makes him smile like that, that he gets from me :P
As far as mommy goes, I have been finishing up with the wedding plans and various other life events. It feels really good to finally have everything finished. The only thing I have left to do is verify my child care, unfortunately I waited too long and I lost my slot where I wanted it. I am hoping they follow through with making a second class. *fingers crossed*
Come October big things are coming, I have been working on pumping. I learned after the festivities that beer helps my production. A lot. Which is wonderful because my production was scary low for a few weeks leading up to the wedding. I also came across the concept of power pumping and I believe I will be implementing this soon. I am a little bummed that I am not losing any weight even though I have been feeding like crazy and I am almost always hungry. I assume I am gaining some muscle because Mom says I look smaller. Now that the heat is about to break it should be easier for me to be more active, especially since I am no longer tethered to the couch folding my 1200 cranes :s
Happy 3 months to my baby, and I can't wait to meet up with the other couples and babies from our class in a couple weeks! :D
