WOW...I can't say it enough...Naaman is growing up WAY too fast!!! I cannot believe it's already been 2 months since our precious baby arrived into this world. At his check-up he weighed 10 pounds, 8 ounces and was 22 3/4 inches...putting him in the 25th percentile for weight and 50th for height. A lot has happened since I last updated...
*Naaman is now sleeping in his crib...IN HIS OWN ROOM! This was a big step for me...and I worried a lot about it...but he had no problems at all. It was more of an adjustment for me than him.
*He is awake A LOT now during the day.
*His eyes are looking around and he's moving his head following objects or voices...and his neck is VERY strong.
*The little man LOVES lights!
*He is a big fan of bath time...or should I say shower time...we give him his baths in the kitchen sink and turn on the faucet to "spray mode"...he eats it up!!!
*He's also a big fan of being naked on his changing table. He kicks his legs like a mad man and smiles and coos, but...the minute I put a diaper on him and get him dressed he stops...it's the cutest thing!
*He's been smiling since he was 3 weeks old but now he does it ALL THE TIME and we LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!!!
*So...he really likes his paci, or "puckey" as his NaNa calls it, and has taken it really well until just recently, but...he now prefers his right hand. I find him sucking on it non-stop!
*Naaman Jack still really enjoys his walks...and being outside in general. We are still working on the Baby Bjorn...but he is doing better with it.
One of Naaman's favorite spots...Daddy's chest...
Uncle John and Aunt Hope came from Arkansas to meet our little man. We really enjoyed their visit...especially since they brought TONS of fresh basil, tomatoes, and peppers from their vegetable garden. They also cooked us delicious meals while they were here. This is pretty much how our weekend was spent other than eating...
I LOVE this picture...Naaman really likes to sleep with both hands up by his head...
One of Naaman's favorite...Si Si (Aunt Heather). He lights up every time she comes to see him. She can always seem to soothe him and he is very comfortable in her arms...
He DEFINITELY looks like a Ballentine in this picture....right?
We had some other visitors this month too...Aunt Katherine and cousin Caitlin came all the way from Maryland to see baby Naaman...Caitlin was a BIG help! Maybe she should move closer so I can have an on-call babysitter!!!
I LOVE how big and blue his eyes are in this picture...sweet boy!!!
Check out this smile...
