It really is amazing how fast babies change; that he continues to change and I know next week and the next will be different still.
In the past week he has moved his fists into his mouth and he grabs a hold of his bib more often. He's grabbed my fingers and pulled them into his mouth and instead of sucking he clamped down!!! We broke out the teething rings and toys but he still has yet to show much interest in those. He's also already quite the drooler!!! Luckily he already has bibs on for the spit up so looks like we'll continue the bibs for the drool :-)
He has also recently preferred to fall asleep on me facing out. The week before I could put him on my chest belly to belly and he'd go out like a light. Then last week he wanted to look around while dozing off.
He also slept a record 7 hrs on Friday night!!! It was great for him to sleep so long but it sure left me feeling uncomfortable. He might have slept a little longer but I needed him to eat and empty one of my boobs, then I got up and went downstairs to pump the other side. It kinda threw our whole day off as far as me feeling engorged. So many adjustments to face.
And other news we found a nanny!!! We posted an ad on care.com a few weeks ago and actually had 15 or so interested. We did two interviews this weekend after weeding through the email candidates. And settled on a great gal named Emily. She'll watch Isaac 2-3 days a week between when I leave for work at 2:30 and when Kyle gets home about 5:30 or so. I go back to work in less than two weeks :-( I'm happy to return and get a part of me back, but it's also going to be hard leaving Isaac for any amount of time. Luckily it is really not that much time apart.
I can't think of any other changes off the top of my head, so I'll leave you with some funny faces from this morning.
OH I did catch him leaning over to his left today, the start of the back to front roll. He didn't get any farther than in the picture but it's something new he hasn't done before!!
Sorry for the lack of quality in the photos... but these days it's posting from my phone or once a month posting :-) and I'm trying to be good about posting often
