11 weeks old

I love this boy. And he's growing and changing so much.




He's getting good at holding his head up, he turns his head toward new sounds, tracks things well with his eyes, will smile back at you and coos when he likes something. Not a huge fan of tummy time, but he can lift his arms and legs off the ground and "fly". He does it best when he's mad and sick and tired of tummy time. He also likes to be held up to practice standing.



At the doctor last week, he weighed a whooping 16 lbs. 10 oz. So he gained a pound in the one week from his prior visit. (We've had a couple extra visits because of his cold).





Things he loves, as of late (in no particular order), are:

- baths in the big bath tub - video of this coming soon!

- playing with these chain link toys


- looking at his arm/hand/sleeve (no joke- he lifts his arm and goes cross-eyed staring at it)
- putting soft things in his mouth, like blankets dad wraps him in so he doesn't have to re-dress him after changing a diaper :)


- His yellow duck softie. He really loves this toy. He's always got the beak, or a wing or even the duck's hair in his mouth.

- And a new one from today is watching the ceiling fan go round and round. I couldn't believe how long that entertained him!
