Max: A Portrait At Almost-But-Not-Quite 3 Months

Weight: 53 pounds (probably really about 14)

Length: 12 inches (probably really about 24 inches)

Clothing size: 3-6 months

Eye color: Brown

Hair color: what hair?

Looks just like: Mom

Bedtime: anywhere between 7-9 pm. Currently sleeps in the bassinet at night, but we will be making the switch to the crib next week.

Gets up at: anywhere between 6:30-7:30 am

Been sleeping through the night: for about 2-3 weeks now. He will occasionally get up around 2-4 am for a snack, but that's after about 8 hours of sleeping. Really depends on when his last feeding was before he falls to sleep for the night.

Eats: during the day, about every 2-4 hours (anywhere between 2-6 oz per feeding)

Favorite food: milk

Food he cannot wait to eat: popcorn. At least that's what he loved when I was pregnant with him.

Skills: can hold head and neck upright (pretty much has total control and he's a show-off, too), can majorly focus on pretty much anything, holds hands together as if plotting destruction of the world, smiles, laughs, coos, talks to God, excellent dancing ability, regularly flips people off

Potential thing we can exploit on the Maury Povich Show: his massive umbilical hernia (his outtie)

Hobbies: talking to God, staring and smiling at blank walls, boogie-ing, sitting in the bouncie, staring at the beautiful butterflies on the mobile, being licked by the dogs, going for strolls with mom, dad, and the dogs, walking around the house, staring at the mirror, making big poopies

Things he dislikes: tummy time. I swear this kid will never learn how to crawl because he hates tummy time so much. We can only get in about 2 minutes before all hell breaks loose.

Favorite dog: Lucy

Favorite dog to harass: Shelley. He likes to burp and not let her get the milk that dribbles from his mouth.

Dog that loves Max the most: Pippi. She is giving him free spa treatments.

Favorite thing he is looking forward to: wearing his corrective helmet

Favorite tv show: America's Next Top Model, The Fashionista Diaries

Favorite books: Paris Hilton's "Confessions of an Heiress;" "Everyone Poops"

Favorite sport: shopping

He's a big wimp because: he has to be swaddled (still!) before going to bed, and sometimes when feeding; loves beautiful butterflies; and America's Next Top Model

The thing that's going to embarrass him the most when he's older: his parents call his pacifier a, well, let's just put it this way--it rhymes with "kitty."
