Griffin

Griffin at two and a half months has started to develop a personality, likes, and dislikes. Here are some things he is liking/doing/learning/being:

• BEARS!! Griffin loves his bears. They hang above his swing, he stares and stares and stares. Sometimes they rotate out of view, he lets us know!

• SONGS!! Getting Griffin to smile is as easy as singing a song, and if they involve actions/tickling/touch all the better. Right now “If I were a butterfly” is a hit.
• BOUNCY CHAIR!! If he isn’t being held chances are he is batting at toys in his bouncy chair

• SLEEP!! I am blessed with a sleeper. Lately he has been sleeping 8-ish hours straight at night, and then from the 5/6-ish feeding until 8. He doesn’t nap without being held during the day though. I am well rested but don’t get much done during the day!
• THUMB!! He is a thumb sucker (so were his parents).
• EATING!! After all our struggles in the beginning I am so happy to have a nursing baby. He weighed 13lbs 1.5 oz. the other day (clothed) so he is gaining weight and hasn’t had a bottle since week six. He is wearing 6 month clothes!
