3 months old today

Well, Garrick is 3 months old today. His big achievements over the last few months have been to finally learn to nurse from a bottle and sleep about 5 hours every now and then at night. The bottle was really a feat as Wendy and I are now the owners of about 4 different bottle/nipple systems that he has no interest in.
We will have to start considering his day care arrangements soon. Wendy is already 1/2 way done with her leave. I can't believe it.
Today, his 3 month birthday, he is still not quite on a schedule. He is currently fussing with Wendy after taking a 1 hour nap around 5pm. The nap would have been good, but we generally try to get him to sleep at 7pm. The nap has him off schedule and I fear that Wendy may be facing a rough night of staying up and entertaining him while he is awake at 4am. Hopefully we can convince him soon to try and go to bed.
Now, on to Hal. Hal is his pacifier. Wendy and are not sure if are willing to allow Hal to become part of Garrick's routine, so we are doing our best to discourage it. The pacifier is very much like infant crack...just say no
