Smiles! and More

It seems as if Noah is giving us real smiles now. He also is moving his hands and arms more purposefully.
Noah really dislikes wet diapers. He seems like the perfect baby to start trying infant potty training with - now I just need to jump in and do it! (You can search for "elimination communication" to read about it if you're curious.

Noah's neck muscles are not as strong as Jonathan's were at this age, but his legs are stonger.

Sometimes, he sleeps better on his back. Jonathan always preferred his stomach. Noah also needs "separate time" more than Jonathan did. That is, he'll be fussy when I'm holding him, but calm down when I put him down. One night, I put him in bed awake after nothing seemed to get him to sleep. He was happy lying there, not crying. Jonathan and I went downstairs to brush our teeth and when we came back, Noah was asleep!

Comments

I wanted to comment somewhere, and this is as good a place as any, that your "Popular Topics" list reads like an interesting modern poem. I particularly like "asked baby before birth," "finally head himself home," "milk morning," and "nice Noah rest." :)

I see the poem has changed. "Birth contractions," "love midwife," "needed nice night," "Noah nursing," "sleep sometimes," "started thought," "wanted water."
