Christmas Miracles

3 months old

Christmas Eve!!

I took Skeet to the doctor the Monday before Christmas because he was congested. They thought he might have RSV, but didn't test him or even take his temperature! He never ran a fever, and after a couple of days of Baby Vicks, a vaporizer, and TLC, he was better. I was concerned about Skeet not lifting his head when he laid on his belly, and the doctor said that if by 4 months he couldn't lift up on his arms we'd have to have him evaluated. Well, mama hen freaked out and immediately started leaving him on his tummy. So lo and behold on Christmas Eve, he could hold himself up on his arms! I took a picture of him, but he wouldn't smile so I tried to take another. He cocked his head to the side, grinned at me, and rolled over to his back!!! I went nuts! I ran to get the video camera and made him do it again. Then on Christmas morning, he laughed the biggest, cutest laugh! On New Year's Eve we made it home before 9p.m. and everyone thought we were crazy. But he had slept two or three nights in a row all through the night, and I didn't want to mess him up. Even to today (January 3rd) he has slept all night! Now if I can just get him to sleep in his crib...
