Day 32: Baby shoes

Ok, I know they're completely pointless on a baby this young–but I LOVE baby shoes! I think they are so cute on babies. Mikey tolerates them, but they usually end up falling off soon after I've put them on him. He has a few pair (all size 2), and he's just recently grown into them. I was so excited to be able to put them on him!

Day 31: Dinner with baby

We've started putting Mikey in his high chair during dinner time. He doesn't eat with us yet, but he loves his toys on the tray! He still leans over a little sometimes, so I have to sit him up straight again, but I love having him at the table with us. Dinnertime will be a little harder (or at least slower) once he's actually eating with us, but for now it's fun to watch him play while we eat!

Day 30: Cute lil baby feet

Mikey's new obsession today was his feet. Many times today while he was playing on the floor (or watching TV, like he is in the picture) and while he sat on my lap, he was grabbing his feet. A couple times while he was sitting, he even leaned forward as though he wanted to put his little toes in his mouth...where everything else seems to go! :) 

Day 29: My poor sick baby

Mikey has been sick for a few weeks now. He got a cold a few weeks ago, and just when he was finally over it, he got another one. Poor baby! I took him to the pediatrician for her to check him out and make sure he was ok since he's now been sick for so long. She said he was doing well, so that's really good news! He even gave her some smiles and giggles, so he must not have been feeling as bad as he sounded! He was really stuffy last night, and today he was still pretty stuffy and coughing. He slept quite a bit. Hopefully he'll continue getting his rest so he will be better soon!

Day 28: getting even stronger!

Today I decided to let Mikey have his tummy time on a blanket surrounded by some toys. My original plan was to get him to roll over again, but he didn't seem too interested in doing that. Instead he began reaching for his toys and trying to get to them, which is improvement from what he usually does during tummy time (just laying there sucking on his fist). I'm excited to see him developing even more and becoming so much more active with his toys. He is more and more fun every day!

Day 27: Couch Potatoes

Mikey is already a typical boy–fascinated by the TV! He seems to especially like baseball, which Chris likes, but for me is sooooo boring. It's nice right now to be able to distract him when he's getting fussy, though. I got a picture of my boys being boys today after Chris got off of work, watching TV together. I can't wait til it gets warmer outside so we can have a little more fun!

Day 26: Mikey's 1st Easter

Today was Mikey's first Easter! His Grandma and Grandpa Geerken came over today to spend his first Easter with him. We went to church in the morning, then went back to our house for our Easter dinner. We had a lot of fun today!
