Tummy Time: Checking me out

Tummy time can be a chore for us babies. It feels strange and is not as comfortable as being on our backs. Also, it is quite a workout. But, now that I have this handy mirror to check myself out in, I don’t mind the workout as much. I can actually see my progress. I […]

Not ready to wake up

I take some really good naps. Sometimes my naps are better than my sleep at night. To make sure I can sleep at night and that I am fed at the right time, Mommy and Daddy sometimes have to urge me to wake up from my naps during the day. But sometimes I am just

Temporary Swaddle

Swaddling still doesn’t really work for me. It lasts for a bit, and it helps me to slip into a deeper sleep, which is good. But soon, I burst free from its bonds, able to flail my arms and legs again. I must admit, though, it can be comforting for a while. Maybe I’ll give

Cleavage

The weather is getting to be hotter and hotter, so sometimes I ditch my outer layer of clothes and just lounge around in my inner garments. I didn’t realize that in certain positions they can be revealing and somewhat provocative. It looks like I have a bit of cleavage there. Well, if you got it,

Books, Stroller, & Sling

Late this afternoon Daddy read a lot of books to me. I like reading books, but I’m not quite sure if I understand the stories yet. I think I like the bright colors and pictures. I definitely like Daddy’s reading voice. After that I was feeling kind of restless, so Daddy and I went out

Mommy running errands

Mommy had to run some errands today, so I stayed home with Daddy. We chatted a bit, changed some diapers, and just had some nice quality time together. We spent a lot of time outside, just relaxing. The weather was nice and the fresh air soothes me. I was getting a bit sleepy so he

DJ

Now that I’m more than 6 weeks old, I thought that it was about time I thought about my future. One possible career is being a DJ. I love music, and I think I have a knack for great music choices. (Hooked on a Feeling is my jam!). DJing looks pretty easy. I think I

Sneezes and smiles

Recently, it has become obvious that I can see much more clearly. I’m following movement more and studying faces. When I look at Mommy and Daddy I am really seeing them, not just blurry images. And when I see them, I am happy and smile! Look forward to more smiling pictures of me!

Drained Mommy

Poor Mommy. Not only is it tough to raise a newborn baby, but I am literally sucking the energy out of her. I don’t know how she does it. There is only one explanation: she is a SuperMommy! It is amazing. She hasn’t been able to sleep more than 3 hours at a time for

Nursing Gears

Did you know that I have different gears when nursing? It’s true. Some times I am relaxed and take my time, and other times I guzzle as much as I can as quick as I can. You can hear it in the way I suckle. Mommy often has to tell me to calm down and

Great night

Following that rough night I had last night, I was surprised by the great night I had last night. Mommy and Daddy stuck to their strategy and tried to make sure I was up as much as possible during the day. They didn’t force me to stay awake or anything, but they made sure they

Exhausted

After a rough night and long day of being a good boy, I am exhausted. Time to relax.

(Grand)Father’s Day

We had a belated (Grand)Father’s Day today! Ojiisan couldn’t come over on Father’s Day because he was getting his COVID-19 vaccination, so naturally, I completely understood why. So, we celebrated Father’s Day with him today and I was prepared to greet him. We had a nice lunch together and I got to spend more time

Photo Shoot Pictures

We got the photos from the photo shoot and I think they look pretty good! Take a look.

Rough night

Oh man, oh man, oh man. Did I have a rough night. Well, I should say WE had a rough night. I just couldn’t get to sleep and that means that Mommy and Daddy did not get to sleep. Not only did I not sleep, but I was very cranky. I cried a lot a

The Power of Song

Just a quick note. You remember how I mentioned how I like it when Daddy carries me and sings This Old Man? Well, it seems like the song works even without him carrying me. We were driving home from the shopping mall and I started fussing and crying. I got so worked up that my

Small / Big

If I can look tiny in Mommy’s arms, you should see me in Daddy’s, especially when I’m in my baby carrier. But I’m not tiny. I’m big. I’m objectively big. There was a nursing room in the shopping mall we went to today and in that nursing room was a baby scale. So we weighed

Tiny boy

There are times where I look really small, even it Mommy’s arms. It’s usually when I’m curled up, sleeping, and just at peace. I almost feel like I’m back in Mommy’s belly. This is nice!
