"Let's say I hope that I appeal to the more carefree times in a person's life rather than to his reasoning adulthood. I'd just like to be an image that reminds someone of joy rather than of the problems of the world" -John Wayne

December 17th-24^th: Duke is a machine at moving and rolling now. Going from back to side is common and he will show off his back, side, belly roll to those he find worthy (i.e. not many people have witnessed this). I am the only person to see the full back, side, belly, side back roll; which he has only done once. These are amazing things he SHOULD not be doing at 3 months more less 2 months gestationaly.

       His widow’s peak is defiantly there and not going anywhere. The funny thing is he is now naturally having a perfect Mohawk in the morning. He is a rebel in so many ways, and I am proud of him.

      He is up do 8 lbs 13 ounces, is in 3 month clothing and is sleeping at night for 5 hours straight. His sense of humor isn’t there, but he has laughed……once…..at my brother. He smiles during our 5 am feedings from ear to ear when we are cuddling in bed.

      So what did Duke do for Christmas eve, he got his hepatitis b shot. Poor baby L But it is what is best for him and his health. He has been watching his cousins running about since they got here on Wednesday, which I am sure will lead to a fun and tiring Christmas Day tomorrow.
