He's found his thumb and loves to suck on it, his 2 middle fingers or his whole hand! He's given up most pacifiers, but occasionally likes to chew on his wub-a-nubbs.
These days, he's all about tummy time! It's darn near impossible to change his diaper! As soon as I lay him on his back, he's trying flip back onto his stomach. We now have a basket of toys on the changing table to distract him long enough to get him dressed.
Although he can sit, again, he prefers to be on his tummy. He's far too busy trying to chew on something he's not supposed to have (Parker's toys, cords, lent, shoes.....) than to sit still and play.
He continues to be the sweetest, happiest baby ever! Whenever I see his big blue eyes & precious smile, my heart just melts. He smiles all the time. And he loves to smile & scream! He found his voice and uses it all the time. I love hearing all his cute baby babbles. We have lots of "conversations!" Andy's concerned that Cole may talk just as much as Parker. I don't know where they get it....Poor Andy!!
He's also discovered his toes! He loves to grab and chew on them. From a sitting position, he folds his body in half to chew on his feet...it's a pretty funny sight. I'll try to snap a picture.
And he's officially mobile!! He "crawls" with an army crawl, bear walk, belly flop, roll combination. It seems to get him where he wants to go. He does get up on all fours, but hasn't put it all together. A few times this week, he pushed himself from a crawl position up into an almost sitting pose, but he tends to tip over before he sits up all the way. He also LOVES to jump....in his saucer, jumparoo or in your lap, this kid can jump! He even tries to jump when he's laying on the floor. We're building some serious leg muscles here. He's such a busy bee!!
We continue to love him sooooo much!
Being his mama is such a joy & blessing. I thank God for him every day! & his brother! More on what that little dude has been up to soon!
