Week 10

May 13-19

Bathtime!!

Still loves his bathtime!! He will sit in the tub as long as you let him. When we take him out he cries. After his bath he gets lotion and a massage and then puts on his pajamas. Usually he bathes after eating so afterwards we wrap him up in his blankie and give him his pacifier, he knows it's time to settle down and playtime is over for the night. Sometimes we read stories. We are going to use this as our routine as he gets older to signal bedtime is coming.

Jack had his 2-month doctor's appointment this week. He did very well through the whole examination. He is up to 12 pounds (50th percentile) and 23 inches (50th percentile)...Yay!! He had to get 2 shots in his little legs and he wasn't too happy about that, but once Ed picked him up he stopped crying. We gave him tylenol throughout the night so he wouldn't be in pain.

Weighing in at 12 pounds!!

Not so sure about this doctor thing anymore.

This week he has become so much more vocal. He coos and gurgles and sometimes makes high-pitched noises. It really seems like he is talking in his own little language, I wish we could understand what he is saying. He is very good with eye contact and smiles when you talk to him. He follows objects when you move them in front of him. He looks towards sounds that he hears. He is really starting to enjoy tummy time and playing on his activity mat. He likes looking at his different toys, especially the ones with sounds. He is so much more aware of his surroundings. I think I will go out and start getting him more toys since he enjoys them now.
