being 3

[posted by bkmarcus]
Today, our boy is 3 months old.

This afternoon, Nathalie carried Benjamin over to the neighbor's back yard to watch some bigger kids play in an enclosed trampoline. One of the kids came over to meet the newcomer.

Kid: Who's that?
Nathalie: His name is Benjamin.
Kid: Hi Benjamin ... Why he's not talking?
Nathalie: He's too little. He's only 3 months old.
Kid: Hey, I'm 3 too!

(And since it turns out that units are everything, let me, benpapa, add that I too am 3. And next year I will turn 4.)

And this is today's email from BabyCenter.com:
Your 3-Month-Old This Week

Hello, Brian!

Your baby may be strong enough now to do mini-pushups, lifting his head and chest off the ground for a better view. To encourage him, try placing him on his stomach on a play mat for short periods of time every day. You'll be surprised at how quickly he learns to raise his upper body to see what's going on around him.

Learn more fascinating facts about your 3-month-old's development.
