All milestones have been reached

So as of yesterday all of our milestones have been reached. I know I have said before that we were not doing tummy time like we should. Kale just didn't like it and we didn't do it. Well after the weekend at my parents house I started working with him hard core because I didn't want to be the reason that my little baby was behind, because like it says in my book they can't learn to roll over and lift their heads if they aren't given the time to practice. So last week I worked with him everyday. I gave him tummy time about three times a day and would do it until he got angry; I didn't want him getting too upset. He had learned so quickly to hold up his chest. It's so funny because he went from one day not lifting his head hardly at all just being interested in eating his hands to pulling almost all of his chest off the floor. It just goes to show you they do it when THEY are ready not when you are ready for them too. Well then yesterday he was in a really good mood so I put him on his tummy. In my book it says to pick an optimal time. You don't want to put them on their tummies when they are hungry or tired because they won't get anything accomplished. Do it when they're happy, dry, and fed. So I have been following that advice. I had just got off the phone with my mom and put him on his tummy. I looked up to say something to Ryan and as I did, I almost missed it, the kid just rolled over like it was nothing. Like he could have done it for weeks. It took no effort and he rolled all the way over not just halfway. I was so excited I started screaming for Ryan to watch and I put him on his tummy again so that Ryan could see. I wasn't sure if he would do it again but I was hoping he would. He did. I videotaped it so my mom can see in case he decides not to do it the next time we're in atlanta. I was so proud of him though. We gave him praise and made him do it like four or five times and then stopped tummy time for a while because he had, had about enough. It is amazing to me how quickly he picked this up and it makes me wonder if we had been working with him like we should have from day one how quickly he would have been rolling over. Our kid is a very fast learner. He makes his mama proud!

That was the only milestone he had left to reach for his age. He just turned three months old two days ago so now really the only thing we have to work on this month is him putting weight on his legs when his feet are on a surface when you lift him up and we have to wait for him to actually laugh out loud. He squeals with delight but we have yet to hear his laugh that is something that I can't wait for. I am so proud of my little boy! And even though it doesn't matter if he develops on time it makes me feel good that he is even doing things that he might be doing at his age and doesn't have to be yet. I am glad that I am a stay-at-home mom right now and can actually work with him because now is the perfect time.

So last night it became official he is a mama's boy to the T. He was watching me as Ryan was holding him and kind of fussing so Ryan told me to leave the room. I guess because Kale was too focused on me. So I left and as soon as I did the little boy started to bawl. Ryan told me to stay gone and let him handle it. Kale would not stop crying so Ryan came and handed him to me. He immediately shut up all he wanted was his mama
