Hollis' New "Skills"

I wanted to post this before I forgot all the new things Hollis is doing these days. Also an excuse for me to post more pictures of my little man. :)

First: He is sleeping well in his crib now. We have a pretty good night time routine that is making my life a little easier and helping me get more sleep most nights! YAY! He doesn't sleep all the way through the night, but he usually only wakes up once during the night now.
Second: Spit bubbles. And lots of them. He actually started this at about 6 weeks old. Usually accompanied by sticking out his tongue over and over again.
Third: Tummy time is getting better. He can really hold his head up longer before getting frustrated and fussy. He has even started to grab at toys if they are close to his hands. He doesn't look at them, but will grab them if his hands happen to come across a toy.
Four: Grabbing and holding more stuff each week. My hair, his burp cloths, his pacifier, and my favorite: his knees. He grabbed his toes once, but that was a fluke. He hasn't "found" his toes just yet.
He's also cooing and learning how to make more sounds every day. His favorite place to "talk to me" seems to be on his changing pad. Something about being clean and fresh makes him want to talk. :)

  1. He's saying thank you mommy for changing my diaper. Haha. Hunter is doing bubbles to some days. Austin did it too! I forgot that stage. The stages are all so cute. Love living it all again.

  2. Changing tables must be the most comfortable place ever!! Wonder what it is about that whole ordeal - but babies sure love it. I love the picture of him grabbing his knees - too stinkin' cute!
