| Getting chunkier |
He cries when he is hungry, whines when he is tired, and fusses when he wants more stimulation. In social settings the only thing that scares him to crying is when other babies cry or when mommy sneezes. Sneezing, really Dylan?? Dirk calls him a sympathy cryer.
He is always smiling and loves for people to talk to him. He isn't attached to either of us just yet and will let anyone hold him. His hands are always in his mouth which makes me think he is working on some teeth but nothing yet. He is a once a day poop kind of guy... which has been nice, not too many dirty diapers. But I tell ya, he can clear a room with his gas.
His hands and feet are still his favorite toys or sometimes the blue dog that goes straight into his mouth. A perfect morning for Dylan is a full tummy from mommy then to his bouncer where he puts his hands or his feet or both in his mouth while watching Baby Einstein. Baby Einstein is a lifesaver most days, a blissful 28 minutes to get dressed, eat cereal, and check email. I could write a whole blog on Baby Einstein....
He loves to go for walks in his stroller sitting up right like a big boy not in the car seat. He is noticing Otto more and more and watches him around the room. He is still in love with water and splashes around during bath time.
We couldn't have asked for a more happy, smiley, little guy. Dirk calls him "sticky fingers"... very fitting dad and I call him my "Little Man" I am very appreciative of his mild manners because I don't think he could handle all this traveling being a fussy little guy. He fits right into our family and lifestyle. We couldn't be more blessed.
