Liam is 16 Weeks

This week has been a bit crazy.  The past weekend Liam was off his schedule for some reason and had a bit of time taking his naps, we hardly got a minute to relax.  By Monday we were still tired and it felt like we didn’t get a single chance to recharge for the coming week.  Part of the reason he had a rough time was he started to not want to breast feed during the daytime.  He still will at night, but generally he wants a bottle when it’s light out.  This has really only started after I went back to work, so we are thinking he just is used to getting a bottle during the day, and that is what he expects now.  On the bright side, Liam started blowing raspberries this week.  We are still waiting for him to laugh, but he has had a few squeals of delight which has been the closest thing to a laugh so far. Although, he has been smiling A LOT more these days, he will just grin and then if we smile back at him his smiles get bigger, it’s super cute!  It’s really fun when we talk to him and say something and then he smiles as if he knew what we said.  He is holding his head up really well now, not quite 100% yet, but as soon as it is, he will get to hang out in his Johny Jump Up!  We got out an interactive Pooh toy that was given to him as a gift.  It’s a 6+ month toy for learning shapes and such, but we figured he would enjoy watching the lights, and hearing Pooh talk and play music.  Not only does he LOVE this toy, he actually has learned to push the Kanga button, pull Tigger down, and tilt Pooh bear to make the different sounds!  He is growing and changing so much from week to week, we are just so proud to be his parents, and a part of watching him discover this world.
