My Tricks

Here are some things I can do at 4.5 weeks old:

-I can watch the BYU games with daddy and cheer for Jimmer!

-I can sleep 6-7 hour stretches some nights. (But most night I choose to go about 4 hours.)

-I can reach the wall with my pee when mom and dad don't change me quick enough.

-I can touch my hands to each other above my head because my arms are so long.

-I can snuggle perfectly with my mom and dad.

-I can cry really loud and get mom to pick me up.

-I can already get dad to ground me.

-I can lay on my changing table and just look out the window or up at the fan. It is one of my favorite places to hang out.

-Sometimes I decide to smile for mommy while she's changing me now and she likes that.

-I can make good eye contact.

-Last week I started tracking objects. Now when my daddy passes by I watch him so I can learn everything that he does.

-I have mastered hanging out with mom all day. Some days I used to be really fussy and cry for 8 hours at a time, but now that I have medine for my reflux (previcid) I am feeling much better. Now I can lay by myself on the floor, in my swing, or on my boppy for 20 minutes or so to give mom a break.

-I can lift my head and hold it up for a long time by myself. I am getting stronger each day.

-I can grow out of my clothes on a daily basis because I am growing so fast!

-I can be really fussy at night so mom and dad let me sleep in their bed. I have them wrapped around my little finger. Especially at 1am.

-When I am mad I can move my arms like I am swimming. That always makes mom and dad laugh.

-I can dance with dad while he sings me a song.

-Most of all I am good at being the perfect baby so my mom and dad can love me as much as they do.
