Kissy Noise

Whenever Lane hears a new sound it usually makes him laugh. Tonight we found a sound that did not make him laugh.

New Discovery



Lane enjoys sitting up. He's not real good at it yet but today his efforts have led to the new discovery of his toes! It's so weird to think about how babies have to see everything for the first time. It took three months for him to finally see and feel his own toes. And he's also making efforts that look like crawling. But I think it will be a while before he figures that one out.

Lane vs. the Pillow

In the past I have documented some of Tony's sleeping quirks. Parenthood has only increased his night time craziness and since the day Lane was born Tony has constantly mistaken his pillow for Lane. Last week I got into bed and started talking to Tony about whether I could leave Lane sleeping on his tummy or not. After a few minutes of sharing my thoughts Tony says, "where is he?" in a panicky voice. I said, "In the crib." He says, "so this isn't him?"(as he points to the pillow his head is laying on. "No, that's you're pillow." "Are you sure." "Yup." Another day that week he lifted up my leg telling me to stop squishing the baby. And he's offered me his pillow countless times asking if I want the baby. Obviously Lane does not share a bed with us because Tony would probably use him as a pillow, but he still thinks he's in the bed with us almost every night. Silly guy. I could write about a dozen things that he has said and done in the past two months that are pretty wacky but that is not the purpose of this blog. I hope this will be a reference for Tony if he ever gets confused again in the future about whether his pillow is a baby or not. Although they are both soft and squishy, here are some differences...
1. Lane will yell obscenities at you if you lay your head on his tummy

2. He will also, most likely, take a few swats at your head to get you off of him

3. If you pick up your pillow you will notice that it weighs substantially less than Lane

4. And lastly, they look quite a bit different.

Hopefully, Tony, this will clear up any confusion for you.

Oh baby cheeks!

Just a few pictures from mom's camera. She's so good. And the kid is so cute, even if he will never smile for the camera.
