As of tomorrow, Jonas Henry will have been living on the outside exactly as long as he was on the inside. Hard to believe, because those forty weeks seemed to take a while, and the past forty have flown by. From that helpless little baby to the playful, snuggly boy he's become, it's all so hard to believe.
The last day we were in NC he got his first tooth. After many sleepless nights, his lower right central incisor made an appearance. The left is just about to break through. As of four days ago he is crawling, too. Monday morning he moved his knee forward for the first time, and my Monday night he was crawling across the floor. Now the girls (Emma) is realizing the dangers of a mobile baby on her precious toys. Lilah learned that lesson long ago. We also has his well-check on Monday. He weighed 20lbs 3oz (50%) and is 30 inches long (95%). He is still not a fan of purees, but enjoys puffs, rice rusks, and graham cracker bits. We'll get there. He is still not the best sleeper, but it has improved a great bit since his tooth came in. He is having trouble now learning to relax in bed and not feel like he needs to practice his new tricks when trying to fall asleep. Sit up, crawl across the bed, lay down, sit up, crawl across the bed, lay down.... repeat. Poor baby. What a sweetheart though....
Love a man in a kitchen. Especially a pink one.
