Little Person, Big Baby - Tuesday, February 19, 2008

It's my 8 week birthday! I'm not even 2 months old yet, but I keep hearing Mommy say I'm such a big boy now. The other day she told me that my head grew overnight. My whole body is wider and thicker, and my knees and thighs are getting real chubby. My thighs are where I store all the extra cute fat! I've started to out-grow some of my clothes already. My hands are bigger, and I'm starting to open them up more rather than keeping them tight-fisted. I can sit up (with a little help). I've also found my voice, so I coo and make lots of other noises when I'm not crying. I'm getting better and playing by myself too, so Mom & Dad don't have to carry me around all the time. My feet apparently have doubled in size. Mommy says that when I was just one week old, she would massage my feet with her thumbs. And back then, her thumb stretched from the ball of my foot to my heel! Now my feet reach all the way across Mommy's palms. I'm a big baby now! Thank goodness I'm still a little person.

We had a triple birthday party! It's Holly's 2 month birthday and Holly's daddy's birthday too. We had a nice, quiet dinner at Mom & Dad's favorite Japanese restaurant. Then there were games and cake! Daddy let me stay up late, but I still went to bed at a reasonable hour. I'm such a good boy.
