Walk to the park

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 little […]

Bunch of smiles for Grandma and Grandpa

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 couple

Another Nitori ad opportunity

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.

Play mat

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 well

Mat time with Mommy

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.

Double eyelids

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!

N Cool

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 a

2% Weight Gain

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, but

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
