Ronan seeing the world from a different angle

Ronan has become playful and moves his hands and legs in the air. When kept on the bed, he tries to turn 180 degrees with his head in the position of his toes.

When kept on his tummy, Ronan can lift his head and balance himself well on his stomach. He loves it. He can see the world from a different angle now. He sees the trees and birds outside through the window. He enjoys the wind blowing and the leaves swaying.
I sing this song for him (tune of Una, Paloma, Blanca),

The wind is blowing,
The leaves are swaying,
Singing a sweet song specially for you.
You are my sweetheart, you are my darling,
And I cant stop loving you.

Tummy Time for Ronan

Ronan is trying to roll over on his tummy. He is 3 months old now. He turns his body half way but cannot lift his head completely to roll over, as he is on the heavier side. He turns on his side and then shouts angrily as he cannot roll over. I give him a little push and lo, he shouts with glee as he reached his mini-goal. :)
Then he does mini-pushups to strengthen his little shoulders. He tries to grab the toys around him with lot of puffing and panting to reach them.

3 months old baby - Mama, mama, what is this?

Kids nowadays are really smart. They also have a very good sixth sense. They start understanding the outside world at a very tender age. Ronan completed 3 months and he already wants mama to tell him what is happening around. When I take him in the garden, he looks at the plants, birds, the blue sky as if to ask "Mama, please tell me what is this?"

When we go for a walk, he looks at the cars, motorbikes, cycles, buses and wonders what sounds are those? I repeat "whrooommm, brooooomm" and he stares at me. He looks at the neighbours cats and dogs and when I say "The dog says, bow-wow", "The cat says, meow-meow" , he looks at me and smiles.

Yes, Ronan is growing up fast. You can feel the difference and know that you have a budding individual who wanna make a mark for himself in this world.

How is your baby growing up? Isn't he or she inquisitive about the world? Does she/he ask you questions?

Rattle Rattle Shake Shake Shake

Ronan is almost 3 months old. He can hold rattles well and shakes them when I say "shake, shake, shake". He stops, smiles and shakes it again. I guess he loves the sound of the rattle and wants to listen to it again and again. Rattle, rattle, shake shake shake.:)

Which month did your child achieve this milestone? Did you record it?

2.5 months old baby - milestones

Ronan is 2.5 months old and is growing well into a cute chubby baby. My elder son Richie was on the thinner side. I used to have lots of difficulties taking care of Richie. Richie used to cry a lot as he used to suffer from colic in the evenings. Maybe being a mother for a second time, it is different. You know how to handle stuff better and can do it easily.

Milestones:
Ronan is trying to recognize faces. He turns in the direction of my voice.
He has started laughing out loudly whenever he is tickled.
He also tries to imitate and laugh whenever someone laughs.
He tries to hold our hand and tell stories.

Ronan started cooing today.

It was a wonderful day today. We went for 7am mass. It was bit cold due to the misty dew. When we came back I changed Ronan and kept him in his pram to play. We were all having breakfast when Paa went to talk to him. He was asking him questions and Ronan started cooing back for the first time. It became louder and louder with Ronan smiling and throwing his hands and legs in the air as if to say "Lift me up Paa. I wanna play with you".
