I have a ball. I’m not really sure what I’m supposed to do with it. I assume that it goes in my mouth. Let me try. Nope, that’s not it. Give me some time. I’ll figure this out in a couple of months or so.

I attribute my healthy weight gain and growth to Mommy’s nutritious breast milk and my diligent eating habits. I take nursing very seriously. This is no joking matter. When it is time to eat I am very adamant and let Mommy know that I’m hungry. Then I focus on eating, not distracted by anything. NoticeContinue reading “Serious Eats”

All the data I have says that I’m a big baby. Not in a bad sense. I’m just objectively a large baby based on weight and length. But every so often I look really small. Usually it is when I’m curled into a ball on Daddy’s chest. But then when I am in Mommy’s armsContinue reading “Size perception”

Anybody who has had to deal with a crying baby understands the peace and quiet of a sleeping baby. Everyone ends up tiptoeing around the baby as not to wake it up. I don’t often wake up from loud noises, but will wake up if my sleeping position is changed. This means that Mommy andContinue reading “Don’t disturb the baby”

Mommy and Daddy noticed that I have recently been making a lot of grunting noises and have been flailing my arms and legs a lot after being fed. I also have a slightly uncomfortable face of concentration. At first they thought I was uncomfortable because I needed to burp. (I am not good at burpingContinue reading “Digesting”

You know how I mentioned that dance and pop music relaxes me? It does, but some other times I don’t want to relax and I just gotta dance! Okay, you may have noticed that I’m not really dancing on my own. Daddy helped me dance, but I did add a lot of my own movesContinue reading “Dancing Music”

Some babies like lullabies or classical music to relax them and put them to sleep. I’m not like those babies. For me, relaxing and calming music is upbeat music. If I’m fussy, I like oldies music to calm me down. Mommy or Daddy dance and sway to the rhythm and I usually stop crying orContinue reading “Relaxing music”

They say that newborn babies can only see up to about 8 to 10 inches, and everything beyond that is a blur. That sounds about right. When I’m held I often stare into the eyes of the person holding me. But beyond that I can’t really make things out. I can turn my head toContinue reading “Tracking”

My biggest problem with tummy time still seems to be that I’m top heavy. My arms aren’t strong enough to support me and my legs are pushing me forward, so I kind of do a lot of face plants. It is not the most pleasant of experiences.

Mommy and Daddy just can’t get enough of me. Not only are they fawning all over me during all waking hours, but they can’t even leave me alone when I’m sleeping. I mean what can be so interesting about me sleeping? Is it even worth taking a video? Hold on…Daddy says he wants to showContinue reading “Watching me sleep”

When I fall asleep in Mommy or Daddy’s arms, it is a very deep sleep. I mean REALLY deep sleep. Look how limp I am when sleeping.

Thanks to all my tummy time, my neck has been getting stronger every day. I can hold my head up for longer periods. But the problem is not strength, but control. When I hold my head up it is not always stable and my head can sometimes flop around a bit. Also my control givesContinue reading “Lack of neck control”

In my last post, I mentioned how much I grew in a month. I wasn’t only talking about my weight and length. Look at my eyebrows and eyelashes. They are becoming very distinguished.

The days go by so fast that they are like a blur. Everything gets mixed together that I am not really aware of what happened when. Especially when my day is a blend of deja vu experiences where I’m sure I just did this or that. These pictures were taken 12 hours apart. The oneContinue reading “Night & Day”

Big mushy cheeks look really cute on babies, but sometimes they don’t hold up well against gravity and then we end up looking really old. When I sit up I feel like it looks as if I aged a few decades.

I’m getting used to tummy time and am getting a pretty good workout. Sure, sometimes I just lie there and do nothing. Other times I try to lift my head up and end up smashing my face into the floor. But most of the time I do pretty good at holding my head up forContinue reading “Tummy time: Turtle freeze”

As you already know, I love being held. But I realize that I cannot be held all the time. So I try to give Mommy and Daddy a reprieve every so often. I usually eat one of my dinners before them so I tend to be in a good mood for a while. I oftenContinue reading “My waiting chair”
