A few things happened in regards to Harold since we got here. First, he grew. Harold was already beginning to grow out of his 0-3 month clothes before we moved, but within a week he was completely out of them except for a few larger onsies. Since then, he has fully out grown them and is on his way to out growing his 3-6 month clothes (his pajamas are already a bit small). Currently he is weighing in at about 18 lbs. and 27 inches long.
Second, he started teething. Within a week of being here Harold's nose started running, his checks got a bit red and the drooling never turned off. He constantly wanted something in his mouth. So the teething began. We quickly went to the store to see if we could find some teething toys. He has continued teething to date but still no teeth broken through. His bottom gum has a nice swollen lump to it though.
The third new thing about Harold is his improved motor coordination. When we got here he was starting to successfully get his fist in his mouth and he could grab on to a few things. Now he is very skilled at grabbing anything within reach and equally skilled at getting it into his mouth. Also he has begun to chew on his thumb. (He doesn't really suck it, mostly chews it. I think this has something to do with his current teething.) Also, near the end of June, he rolled over on his own! Mommy was so proud and has been trying to convince him to do it again. Unfortunately he rather enjoys being on his tummy so he hasn't had much motivation.
Along with his improved motor skills, Harold has increased socially as well. He now enjoys playing peek-a-boo and prefers playing with Daddy over going to sleep. Unfortunately that means Mommy and Daddy have a hard time convincing him to sleep at night. He has also decided that when Mommy is singing him lullabies that he is to sing along and will often join with his own mono-syllabic tones. It's kind of funny because he will "sing" when I'm singing but then stop when I stop and wait for me to start up again before joining back in. He has also become quite the "talker" and will often ramble on to himself and anyone else who may be near by. He has also discovered how to razz and Mommy has been helping him by playing her trumpet. She is rather glad to encourage this behavior.
