What’s he doing? Sitting up and scooting across the floor in a “worm-like” fashion toward desired objects.
Loves to play with Mom’s black bracelet, red chew-toy, lambie stuffed animal, plastic hangers, and anything crinkly.
Sucking on Mom’s hair is also a favorite past-time, as is gnawing on her face and grabbing anyone’s cheeks.
Sleeps from 7-7:30 pm- 7-7:30 am. Naps from 9-10:30/11 am and 1-2:30/3 pm. Sleeping routine consists of changing diaper, turning on sound machine, putting in sleep sack, laying in crib and walking out.
Tolerates: His sister rolling him over and taking his toys.
Nicknames: Cal, Calver, Cal Pal, Calvie, C, The Calvinator, Cal Cal
Isn’t that just the sweetest face? He is truly one of the sweetest babies I have ever met. He is calm, determined, patient and incredibly chill.
Eating all sorts of solids; his favorites being sweet potatoes, squash, oatmeal and anything fruit. Still not a fan of peas. And he makes sure we know it!
Most difficult time of day: Between 6-7 pm, also known as “Witching Hour.” Best time of day: In the morning. Likes to cuddle and stare up into your eyes.
Yes, he is a thumb sucker. He will take a binky at times, but would much rather spit it out and suck on his thumb. I was resistant to let him do this at first and would constantly pull his thumb out of his mouth, but by-golly, it’s just so incredibly cute and he really only does it when he is tired and about to go to sleep.
Fact: He looks irresistible in suspenders.
Besides the adorably contagious giggle and belly-laugh, he isn’t making many noises yet, other than a nice screech/yell and he is REALLY perfecting your grunting.
He continues to melt our hearts…
And I love dressing him “preppy” or “old-mannish” as his Daddy likes to call it.
We love you, Calvin John. We can’t wait to see what you have in store for us next!
