Today I went to the doctor’s to get my first round of vaccinations. FOUR of them! Oh my! Three of those are shots and I heard that they hurt a lot. I am not really looking forward to this. The doctor looked me over and listened to my chest with a stethoscope. So that wasContinue reading “Vaccination”

I have to talk to Daddy about his positioning of me on my play mat. I had a cloud right in my face. This was not that comfortable or fun.

Since I don’t like to sleep in my crib or in my chair Daddy tried to see if I preferred to sleep on the couch. After all, Mommy and Daddy love to take naps there. Hmmm, still not for me, but I did last longer than I usually do in my crib or chair.

Yep, my hair is still growing and reach for the sky!

It’s tough to get exercise or to enjoy any sports when you can’t run, walk, stand, crawl, or even hold my head up. But I need to start to exercise for my health. I heard that Daddy played soccer when he was younger, so I wanted to follow in his footsteps. So I started toContinue reading “Soccer practice”

Am I half asleep or half awake? Are my eyes half opened or half closed? Half dreaming or half in reality? Half of what? I do not know. But completely and fully comfortable.

I was having a nice chat with Daddy when I felt something in my tummy. All of a sudden my smiles and laughs turned into brow furrowing and squinty eyes. Alas, it was a movement of the bowel variety. Maybe our conversation was too invigorating. Or maybe it was very relaxing. Whatever the case, IContinue reading “Movement”

Tummy time is getting to be more fun than a chore. Now I can hold my head up higher and longer so that means I can see more of the things going on around me. It is a whole new perspective on the world. I am enjoying it!

I have always enjoyed talking to Mommy. Now I can finally show her how much I enjoy it with my smiles and the attempts at laughter!

I like the hair. And a that look, wow. Right at the camera. I’ve gotta admit, I’m looking good!

Just a moment please. It takes me a while to wake up. I’m not really a morning person. Much strength and energy is required to power up.

Man, look at that hair. I told you it was getting long. It is also getting a bit explosive. This is my post bath hairstyle and it stays like that even without any product in it. I have to admit, that this hairstyle is quite cool, both in temperature and style.

I’m getting to like this new use of my mat. We turned it into a bit of a peekaboo mat. I find the anticipation invigorating and the reveal thrilling. Every time we play peekaboo it gets more and more fun!

Yeah, I don’t know what I’m looking at here. It’s not my mirror. I sometimes just stare off into the distance and lock my gaze there. It freaks Mommy and Daddy out sometimes. I’m not sure what I’m seeing. You’ll be the first to know when I figure it out.

I have been sleeping quite well during the night. For the most part I only wake up for feedings and I no longer have crying fits. If I wake up because of a wet diaper, Daddy usually takes care of it and rocks me back to sleep. If I wake up because of hunger, itContinue reading “Good sleep equals a good day”

I may not have much control over my hands, but somehow my feet are quite adept. I have quite good ball control considering that I can’t even see the ball. I must admit that I have some fancy footwork. Just imagine what I’ll be able to do once I am able to stand.

Apparently I did something very rude. I swear, it was unintentional. I don’t even know what it means or why it is bad, but I apologize for it. Sorry.

I’m growing so much every day. Even my hair is growing a lot. Look at how long it is getting! I’ve been bathing with an all-in-one baby shampoo and body soap. Maybe it is time to switch to baby shampoo and conditioner to control that hairdo.

I woke up in a good mood this morning and so did Daddy. So we had some nice chat time together. I was very happy to lie on his arm and just talk about stuff.
