Zerbert part 2

Peter was a little fussy as I was walking around, so I gave him a zerbert on the cheek. We've done it before and thought it funny.

Today it led to about 10 seconds of pouty lip follow by screams of protest. It took five minutes of walking and rocking to quiet him down.

sorry Pete

Zerbert part 1

Peter likes zerberts on his belly. I often give him one after a diaper change. It makes a baby smile. This morning he smiled and responded with one of his own. An actual zerbert is beyond him right now but a toot sounds a lot like one. He was quite proud of himself.

Holy cow

Last week, after some mega diaper changes the boy weighed 15.1 pounds. This week, only a minor mess today, 16.3!!!

but enough about the little things, we got a happy boy! Smiles are pretty easy to coax out of him. He coos a lot and even puts out some real laughs a couple times a day.

He is such a great little man.

and holding...

Peter weighed in at 15.1 pounds again. No noticible weight gain. How bizarre. I guess that happens. but he did enjoy playing Wii fit in the daddy pack instead of daddy's very tired arms.

2 nights in a row he has slept for 6 hours straight! Such a good boy. Yesterday I went in and he stopped fussing and just smiled at me. I rubbed his belly to see if he would go back to sleep and he just kept smiling and drifting off. After a couple minutes he remembered that he was hungry and we went in to wake the mama, but we did smiles with her for a couple minutes before we had to start eating.

Never mind

After 5 messy diapers in one day (all normal, except Pete usually does about that many in a week), Peter now weighs 15.1 #. Much more reasonable growth rate.

Back on track at 11.

So last week Peter seemed a bit light. He made up for it. 15.4 pounds! And that's without formula. Peter had a rash so the Dr. gave us a new formula to try. Peter wouldn't touch it. after a week we tried the old one. Rash came right back. So Tera's doing it alone. Thanks sweetie
