Milestone!!!!!

Guess what Robin did for the first time today? He rolled from his tummy to his back all by himself! Hooray! *clap clap clap clap*














The funny thing was, all the previous times that he's tried to push himself over, he's used his right arm to push and has been moving towards rolling over his left shoulder. But today, he rolled over his right shoulder and pushed with his left arm. I was so proud of him! I'm looking forward to repeat performances, and hopefully I can catch it on camera.


Intense concentration

Hallelujah!

Robin has allowed us to sleep through the night without waking up for a feeding for nine out of the last ten nights! It's been so wonderful! And it really gives Mommy and Daddy a few more useful hours of the day!

On the other hand, he's gotten a bit more difficult because I believe he's starting to teethe. He's turned into a little faucet and gets quite a bit more fussy. We had a few really bad days when he screamed whenever we tried to put him down, so he stayed in Mom's arms all day long. Thankfully, he's also had some better days when he mostly has his old disposition back. I guess some babies can have teething symptoms for weeks and even months--I'm hoping it doesn't last too long!

He's been busy growing! He's now 24 inches long--two whole feet! (as of last night) and is more than twice the baby he was when he was born since he's over 13 pounds.

His grip has strengthened quite a bit, and he is now purposefully reaching for things and hanging onto toys. It's so much fun to watch him develop!



He has also started trying to flip onto his back while on his tummy. He hasn't made it yet, but sometimes he turns almost halfway!


Using his playpen without a mattress as a hammock!

Isn't he the cutest??!!!
