you are a happy baby

Today you start to laugh really big now, you interact really well with grandpa and burst to laugh when he massage you. You can see so many things now, maybe that's why you don't want to go to sleep, you are always looking around, very curious. Yesterday, we brought you to Bestbuy to buy a new microwave, you were so curious, checking out at all the microwaves. And you were really happy and active at auntie Jeannette's halloween party yesterday afternoon, that's right, your first halloween is coming up soon. Since you didn't sleep at all yesterday afternoon, you slept for almost 9 hours at night, the longest ever!
But since you slept too long, mommy has her first plugged milk duct experience. It hurst very bad, especially at nursing. But nursing is the only and best way to clear it. There are many lumps on the top of my right breast, and I tried to message it in a hot shower, it helped a little bit, but still feel plugged right now. Hopefully it will clear in 24 hours, it's what it said online, otherwise I will need to see a doctor to prevent mastitis.

some milestones before 3 months

10/28 learned to suck your own hands, will need to suck them before going to sleep.
10/31 left eye has double eyelid,11/2 right one has double eyelid
11/4 fell asleep first on your own by biting your hands in the crib, from now on, we tried to let you fall asleep on your own at night, if you can't, then we will pick you up to rock you. Before that, every night, grandpa holds you and rocks you to sleep, he will hold you for over one hour and then put you in the crib, and will watch you for another hour, make sure you won't wake up and then go to sleep. If we put you down too soon, you will wake up, and we have to do it all over again, you are a very light sleeper. And you have preferences, you want to sleep in the swing in the day time, and at night time, you are pretty good, you can sleep for 8 hours normally from around 11pm to 7am in the crib, big boy!
You are 13 and half pounds when you hit 3 months.
And it's sad that grandpa is leaving on 11/11 when you just turn 3 months, he's been a great help to us, and now I will need to take care of you by myself in the day time, and please be good to me, Marcus!
You love music and you love looking at colorful books,and lights, and love us reading to you. You will kick so hard, like you run for a race, almost like dancing under the music. And you will laugh and smile when I read to you. You love the Chinese poem " e,e,e", you will crake a smile every single time when I read it to you. So super cute!
