Zane is 9 weeks old today! I decided to commemorate this milestone with a picture series. Here are more funny faces that Zane has been making (all with awesome hair):
Zane isn't the greatest sleeper, so when it is 3:15 in the morning and he falls asleep on my lap it is both cute and annoying. Cute because, well this:
But annoying because as soon as I try to move him to his crib he will wake up and require lots of bouncing to maybe go back to sleep.
Zane has also been more expressive with his face - usually he makes (cute) cranky old man faces.
Zane hangs out in the Boppy once I am done feeding him. Samara is usually around, either playing with toys or being jealous. Today she is doing the former and making lots of noises in the process. In the video below, Zane is reacting to the noises or Samara if he isn't making cute eye contact with me. I love his wide eyed startles and his cute little tongue that he sticks out every now and then. A smile appears around 0:12.
I also stuck Zane in his crib and put the mobile on. I don't think he is ever going to love it as much as Samara did (even as early as one month).
Zane is 8 weeks old today! He definitely kicks and moves his body a lot more while listening to the mobile, although he still is not super interested in it.
Zane is noticeably more happy than Samara was. He smiles more often than Samara ever did. However, maybe that is a result of having a more relaxed Mommy?
I never really wore Samara in any sort of wrap when she was a newborn. We have a Baby Bjorn, but she didn't like being in that until she could face out and see the world. Knowing that Samara would probably demand lots of attention, I got a Baby K'Tan to wear Zane so I could have my hands free. I never really got the hang of it and only used it a handful of times. Here is the one time that I not only used it, but got Zane to fall asleep in it.
