My child - He is Expressive!
First off - how the HECK did it get to be October 30th already??? Holy crap! This month totally flew right by.Realizing that today was the 30th, I dug out this onesie I picked up for a mere four bucks back in June at Pottery Barn Kids. Gotta love a deal! It was a little big still, but not too bad. I figure, he wore it once, I wash it, and maybe get my four bucks back by reselling it on ebay or on consignment next year.
We've noticed that Sawyer totally wants to lift up his head and look around. Obviously, being not even two weeks old, he doesn't have the strength in his neck to do this, but man, is he trying! I've been letting him lie on my chest while I watch TV, and I noticed he was getting better at this, so out of curiosity, I laid a blanket down on the floor, laid the Boppy on top (and can I just say how freaking useful the Boppy is? LOVE IT!), and then laid the baby on the Boppy for his first venture into "Tummy Time".
I really didn't think babies could lift themselves up like this at this early age. He will push himself up on his arms, hold up his head, look around for a few seconds, then lay back down to gather his strength before trying it again. I'm amazed.
I tried it again this morning, but after lifting his head twice, he decided a nap sounded like more fun.
That's my boy!
He makes the best little faces when he's getting ready to go to sleep. We like to sit here and venture to wonder what smart alecky things he may be thinking according to his expressions. We're exciting like that.
Of all his facial expressions though, the one we get treated to the most is the scowl. He has many variations, but they're all pretty dang hysterical. I caught this one right after my husband had just finished giving him a bottle. He fell asleep a few minutes later. Usually he's awake after a feeding, but since he only slept 20 minutes after the last feeding/waketime, I guess he was extra tired.
