Another first!



Well, David has smiled (not that he knew it, lol)... frowned, pouted (Josh, my brother did this when he got upset and we would tease him by saying "a little bird is going to pirch on your lip if you keep doing that!" -David can look forward to this as well it seems!), cried, held my finger, gained weight, stopped crying at every diaper and clothing change and started sleeping in his bassinet at night... but the new first yesterday was self soothing by putting his fingers in his mouth! He has tried and tried to get a thumb or finger in his mouth, but could just get his hand close enough to suck a side of it... yesterday he was using his fingers as a "binky"! Very big in development as it takes a lot of muscle control to get his hand and fingers in position, let alone keep them there for any amount of time!
Well, everyone is tired and taking a "day off" -meaning Charlie catches up on house work while me and David nap... what a great guy! We have learned the importance of burping... and with the amount he eats we have to do a lot! We have both also learned you can't be half asleep while changing a little boys diaper!
Here is also a pic of his first impression "Dr. Evil" from the Austin Powers movies... note the right hand pinkie finger.
