district12ravenclawOwen is 8 weeks old today!
Me - Doing great. I'm wondering what I should be doing during the day with Owen. I regrettably admit that I have the TV on all day, every day. I talk to him a lot, I hold him, I dangle toys in front of his face, I put him in his swing, I read to him (not as often as I should), and I do tummy time with him. I guess it sounds like a lot, but it doesn't always fill the day.
Steve - He's so awesome. He worked 12 hour days all last week, and he has to this week too, but he still makes time for Owen. Yesterday, he took Owen in the morning so that I could sleep a little more, which was so nice. He told me again last night that I'm doing a really great job as a mom, which I thought was so sweet!
Owen - He's awesome too! He's smiling and cooing all the time, I love it! His sleep patterns at night are getting pretty predictable, and this morning, we slept in until 11:30! He got up at around 7:30, and like a bad mommy, I just let him lie in his PNP since he wasn't crying. I got him at 8, fed him, and we went back to bed. He also does this funny thing where he laughs in his sleep. He never laughs when he's awake, but he will coo while smiling, so I don't know if that counts as a laugh. His laugh sounds like he's gasping, and that's what I thought he was doing, but he always has a smile on his face when he does it, so it looks like he's laughing in his sleep, it's so funny!
These are some pictures that my mom took of Owen when he was 1 month old.
In the bouncer that we used when we were babies (my mom recovered it):
Real men suck pink pacifiers:
Daddy's so ashamed!
Should I be worried if his eyes do this? I know being cross-eyed is normal, but this isn't cross-eyed:
Fun with props:
Woman, where's my dinner?!
Sorry these are so dark!

Smiling and cooing at his swing mobile:
