11 Weeks Old!

Late post because Bear turned 11 weeks old 3 days ago.

New things he is doing this week:
Eating his hands: He never used to do this until just now. He constantly has his hands in his mouth and slobber every where! It is cute lol I did not know babies did this at such a young age. The only thing is he spits up a lot and so when he sticks his hands in his mouth they end up smelling like puke. Ick.
Rolling over: He can't quite do it yet but he sure is trying! as you can see I caught it in this picture :] He can half way roll over now. I am pretty sure he will be all the way rolling over pretty soon.
More interest in the world around him: Bear has started to notice the things around him more. As you can see in this picture he is looking at the keys Daddy is holding. He actually loves those keys. He would rather look at them than his toys. He does watch TV now too! Like he not only listens but watches the screen. He likes Sesame Street and Yo Gabba Gabba.
Sleep: His sleeping pattern has changed a little this week. He is now sleeping from 7:30ish to 4 am! YAY! So he is almost sleeping through the night. He wakes at 4 for a bottle and goes back to sleep and then wakes at 6:30 for another bottle and goes back to sleep til 9:30 when he wakes for another bottle and to stay up for the day. He is taking about 3-4, 2-3 hour naps a day. The only thing is it is very HARD to get him to sleep at 7:30. He gets really really tired and fights his sleep. He screams bloody murder til he finally does fall asleep. I really hope the bedtime process changes soon.
Growth: We went up to a size two diaper this week! Not because we chose to but because Publix did not have any size 1s left in Papers Swadlers (and we refuse to buy any other brand or kind). Turns out size two fits him great so we are gonna stick with it for a while. I think he got taller as well because a lot of his NB clothes is becoming too small. I think I may put all of his NB stuff away soon and take out all the 0-3 months stuff. I also noticed he has long arms! It's like the outfit will fit but if it is long sleeved the arms will be too short. Maybe he will play a sport when he gets older like tennis maybe? 
Eating: We are still feeding him 4 oz ever 2 to 3 hours. He is still doing good with it for the most part but sometimes he just gets super hungry and screams for more. So we offer him 2 more oz but most of the time he will only take one more. So he is basically at 4-5 oz every 2-3 hours now.
First real boo boo: Kind of hard to see but this was his first boo boo. It was from his nail! This one is pretty bad it has been there for about a week and still has not healed like the gimpy little scratches he got as a NB. My poor baby.
