I realized I haven't posted anything lately about our baby panda. Our little boy is now almost 3 months old and weighs over 8 pounds. His eyes have been open for a while, and he's starting to scoot around his den. Mama Lun Lun has been able to leave him for short periods while she eats her bamboo and treats. But the little guy doesn't like being left alone too long and he lets mama know!
He will be given his name on the 100th day, which I think is around February 15. I haven't heard if there will be a contest to pick his name as there was for his older sister and brother. No word yet, either, on when he'll be going on exhibit with Lun Lun. I'm anxiously awaiting the time I can go down to the zoo to see him in person.

He is gorgeous. Thank you for sharing.
I have been following his story on your blog.
Isnt it amazing that a giant panda gives birth to such a tiny baby that only weighs 8lb at 3 months?
My youngest was that weight at birth!

So cute! Keep us updated, the ones at the Atlanta Zoo are the only ones I've ever seen in person :)
And I bet they aren't doing a contest, seems like they would have announced it by now if it was going to be done on his 100 day birthday. Boo.
