• You sweet sweet boy! You love to coo and talk and smile and are starting to laugh. You're just the cutest and sweetest thing. You also like to wave your arms and kick your legs more as you talk to us or your toys.
• You like people and will give a big smile to almost anyone who looks at you and talks to you. Your siblings especially love talking to you.
• You're starting to like playing under your activity gym and reaching for the toys. You especially love reaching and grabbing the octopus toy, or checking yourself out in the mirror.
• You've discovered that you can shove your hands in your mouth and love chewing on them. I love how you stare at them slowly as you move them to your mouth. You also love to grab and suck on mom's fingers, and growl as you chow down.
• You like the bath and kick and splash.
• You're wearing 3-6 month clothes and size 2 diapers.
• You've enjoyed going for rides in your stroller and usually fall right to sleep. 
• You still like to be held in the moby wrap too.
• You've totally regressed on your sleep and I'm so tired! You stopped that long stretch you used to give me and wake up often in the night again. Daylight savings threw you off too, and you don't want to fall back asleep after 5 am. And sometimes in the night you take forever to fall back to sleep. I put you down asleep, and you wake right up. I lay by you with my hand on your chest and sometimes that helps you fall back to sleep. Sometimes you end up snuggled by me. You turn your head right into me and fall right to sleep. I love the sweet snuggles, but don't sleep great because I'm worried about your breathing with your face there.
• You are a pretty decent napper. Some days I feel like you want to be held the whole time and pop up as soon as I lay you down. Others, you'll go down and sleep for a few hours, then nurse when you wake up.
• You got your first cold. Luckily, it wasn't bad. Just a little cough and stuffy nose we'd have to suction sometimes, mostly in the morning. It may have contributed to your sleep regression.
• I love snuggling you to sleep, you turn your head right into my arm or chest so your face is against me. You suck on your binky until you fall asleep, then you pop it out of your mouth.
• You love to sit up. You will do little crunches to try to lean yourself forward, or get to me to nurse. You're super happy when we sit you up. You like to be on our laps where you can see the face of who's holding you and you reward us with a big smile.
• You like to be held holding up too, so you can look all around. Your neck is strong to hold your head up great.
• You're still on an eat play nap schedule. I haven't counted how many naps you take in a day, but you get fussy when you're tired, then eat when you wake up, then have your awake time. Sometimes you nap for an hour or more in your bed in my room. Other days you'll sleep in my arms, and wake up anytime I put you down. Some days, if I have the time, I'll hold you as long as I can to just enjoy you.
• Your goopy eye is gone! That's the best thing ever! You hated me wiping it all the time, and I hated seeing you wake up with your eye glued shut. I'm not even sure when it happened, but one day, I just realized it'd been about a week since I'd had to wipe it.
• You're already growing too fast and I wish I could freeze time to keep you my little snuggly baby forever.
