3 months old and recent happenings

I am WAY behind on blogging, which I guess can be expected for this time of year. So, please don't mind me, because I am going to include a lot of recent events in this post :) Our little one turned three-months-old yesterday! My how the past months have flown by...

He is growing like a weed!
This last month, Jameston has experienced many firsts...

His first visit with Santa Clause: the professional pic is to come, along with the quite funny story that goes with it!

His first Bumbo seat experience: this has gotten better for him the last couple of times we've put him in it. But this picture from the first time says it all!

He's getting better at holding his head up and does quite well sitting up while being supported.

His first Texas Tech game: Tech vs. TCU, December 8th. He (sporting some ear plugs thanks to Lindi!) cheered the Red Raiders on to a victory, putting them at 9-0.

He was enamored with our friends Lindi and Steven, and the bright lights and loud crowd, too.

His first birthday party: Jameston attended the 1st birthday festivities of his future playmate, Camden.

What a cutie!

His first visit to Texas Tech and Lubbock: We accompanied my mom and sister, Maggie, there for her tour of campus. We were happy the weather was in the 50's and 60's while we were there, and not in the teens like the week before. Here we are in front of the seal!
We were fortunate enough to stay with Memaw & Pappy in Plainview one night. They are the best! Jameston had fun catching up with them on what's gone on since Thanksgiving :)
Mom and Maggie, in front of Soapsuds
We have captured some cute shots of our little fella...we think he is enamored with the shininess of the camera. Or maybe he's just so used to seeing it already!
We had a little sports-themed photo shoot after church. Here he is posing with all the sporting goods Dad could find. I think he has a, "You really want me to play ALL of these sports?" look on his face...
A not-so worried look on his face now... He's in such a great mood in the mornings!
New this month: DROOLING. Lots and lots of drooling! Like father, like son. I sat him down one morning to get ready for work, and he kept on snoozing. Can you see the resemblance?!
Feel bad for the little guy (he was asleep), but we had to take a picture. We have since bought better-fitting caps!
He still LOVES his bouncer! And he has started to grab for the rings. I think we may have a lefty on our hands. Like mother, like son? Only time will tell :)Oh, and he loves to "talk" and sing!
Also, Jameston has upgraded from the pacifier to his hands! From inspecting them to sucking on them to reaching for things with his new found appendages, it is fun to watch! His first try at dress-up, thanks to Daddy! We have a feeling, with four girls cousins, he's gonna have to get used to playing dress-up!Here he is telling Dad who's boss after bath time...and after the dress-up charades :) What a fun month it's been! Stay tuned for the Winters' Christmas card!
