I have so much fun on my play mat that sometimes Mommy and Daddy join me there. There is not much room for them, but we manage. It is quite cozy.

6-month-old size (supposedly)
I still can’t believe that my 6-month-old size clothes barely fit me. I can almost pop the snaps off if I take a deep breath. I don’t think the sizing charts are accurate.
More play mat time
Kicky play mat time
I haven’t quite worked out how to grab things with my hands when on my play mat, but I did figure out that if I kick a lot, I am bound to hit something and then things start to happen. Sometimes I feel something move, somethings I see something shake, sometimes I make some noise.Continue reading “Kicky play mat time”
Transferred
After nursing I often drift off into a very deep content sleep. Sometimes when I’m moved from Mommy’s lap to my chair or mat I wake up very cranky. In order to prevent that from happening Mommy sometimes has to transfer more than just me, but also my pillow to my chair. Doesn’t that lookContinue reading “Transferred”
Long lashes
Check out my long lashes! Aren’t they pretty! They really help balance out the robust eyebrows that I inherited from Daddy and Grandpa.
Fine in the car
I’m pretty use to car rides right now. I don’t really fuss much unless I’m hungry. For the most part I enjoy the rumble of the car and it usually puts me to sleep. Even when I don’t sleep, I’m fine in the car. Except for those darn red lights interrupting my car ride. IContinue reading “Fine in the car”
Serious napping
I take my post-nursing naps very seriously. The nap right after breakfast is the most important nap of the day. Wait, I’m being told that “breakfast is the most important meal of the day”. Same thing for a nursing baby. Mealtime pretty much equals naptime.
High chair
Um, this is a bit awkward. And I don’t think it is very comfortable for Daddy either. Hmmm, nope, I don’t really like this version of a high chair right now. Maybe some other time.
Outdoor nap interrupted by hunger
It was late afternoon and I was having a nice nap outside with Daddy in our garden area, when I realized I was hungry. You can see my cheeks and lips moving, ready before nursing before I am even awake. I was having such a nice nap, but then hunger strikes. This feeding every 3Continue reading “Outdoor nap interrupted by hunger”
Alfresco
I was being a bit fussy in the house so Daddy took me outside to get some fresh air. Even though it is nice and cool in the air conditioned house, I often like to go outside, despite the 30°C (86°F) temperature and 60% humidity. Luckily, our veranda is covered and quite breezy. It’s quiteContinue reading “Alfresco”
Same face, different angles
I heard that some grownups have a “good side” when taking pictures. I still haven’t found mine, but I now understand that my face can change a lot at different aggles.When you have luscious cheeks like mine, you are at the mercy of gravity.
Neck supports failing
I am Mason, hear me ROAR!
Good morning!
I hear that grownups have a hard time waking up in the morning because they are so comfortable in their beds and don’t want to get up. I understand the feeling. Sometimes I find myself on Mommy or Daddy in the morning, because of a rough night, and I definitely don’t want to wake upContinue reading “Good morning!”
Here’s looking at you
Recently I’ve been looking around a lot more and locking on to things. The most common targets of my long gazes are Mommy and Daddy. When they talk to me and play with me I just stare at them. If one of them walks by I lock on to them. My stares can be unsettlingContinue reading “Here’s looking at you”
Happy play mat fun
Besides just staring at myself in my play mat mirror, I actually play on my play mat as well. Most of my playing is unintentional as I flail my arms and legs and accidentally hit the little toys hanging from it. But it is still a lot of fun! Just look at me go!
Still checking myself out
I’m not vain or anything. I just like looking at myself. I’m objectively interested in the idea of reflections in a mirror. I like the interaction of my play mat, so that’s why I keep staring at the mirror. So, this is me still checking myself out.
Sizing
Okay, I know I’m a big baby, but this is getting ridiculous. I’m growing so fast that we had to pick up some new clothes for me. We decided to go one size up and buy clothes for 6-month-old babies. Here I am, not even 2 months old, with my 6-month-old size rompers nearly burstingContinue reading “Sizing”
Cuter?
It’s been well established that I am a cute baby. There is a no doubt and no argument there. But, the question is, could I be cuter? Perhaps with long hair? Well, we didn’t have any extra long hair just lying about, so we simulated some long hair with a towel. What’s the verdict? Cuter?Continue reading “Cuter?”
