Now this is nice. I’m not to fond of my crib sometimes, but I love my Daddy bed. So comfy and warm. It even comes with its own soothing white noise rhythm machine. The top of my Daddy bed is a bit prickly, but other than that, this is so comfortable.

I mentioned before that when I fall asleep on someone, there is little for them to do. They are often forced to reach for the TV remote control with their feet. But sometimes a PlayStation4 controller is at hand. This makes babysitting a sleeping baby a lot more interesting. FYI: Apparently Daddy played better thanContinue reading “Gamer babysitting”

Daddy and I went for a nice long walk today. We figured we should give Mommy some time to rest, since I’m literally sucking the energy out of her. We walked for about 30 minutes around town and I saw a lot of cool things. We even stopped for a rest at a nice littleContinue reading “Walk to the park”

I was chatting with Grandma and Grandpa on FaceTime, as we do once or twice a week, and I was showing off my beautiful smiles. I have been smiling a lot lately. I’m like a smile sniper sometimes. We may not be doing anything particularly special, and then I’ll flash Mommy and Daddy a coupleContinue reading “Bunch of smiles for Grandma and Grandpa”

Nitori, I’m waiting for your people to call my people about a modeling gig. My price is quite reasonable and I accept breast milk as payment.

You’ve seen my new play mat, but you may not have seen me play on my play mat yet. That’s because I still haven’t worked out how to play yet. I can move a lot. I can accidentally touch toys with my arms and hands. But “play”, not yet. One thing I do really wellContinue reading “Play mat”

I really like my new play mat. It is a great place just to lounge and relax. It is also big enough for Mommy or Daddy to join me. We have a chat, play a bit, and read some books.

Sometimes when I’m tired or after I cry, I get double eyelids. Other times, they just kind of appear. I don’t know about you, but Mommy and Daddy think the double eyelids make my eyes look “prettier”. I’m not sure about “prettier” but they sure do pop!

We went shopping today and got me a cool-to-the-touch baby mat from Nitori’s N Cool line. It will help me beat the summer heat. It looks really comfortable, doesn’t it? Don’t I look like one of those babies from the advertisement shots? Hey, Nitori, if you are looking for another baby model, give me aContinue reading “N Cool”

Oh my god! I can’t believe it! This can’t be true. It must be a mistake. I gained weight again! I am now 6120 g (13.5 lbs)! I went from 6000 g to 6120 g in four days. That is a 2% weight gain. Sure, 120 g weight gain may not sound like much, butContinue reading “2% Weight Gain”

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. IContinue reading “Tummy Time: Checking me out”

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 justContinue reading “Not ready to wake up”

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 giveContinue reading “Temporary Swaddle”

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,Continue reading “Cleavage”

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 outContinue reading “Books, Stroller, & Sling”

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 heContinue reading “Mommy running errands”

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 IContinue reading “DJ”

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!

Time for bed, but I’m not quite ready for sleep yet.
