Levi's latest


Levi is almost 2 months old and Mike and I have been blissfully enjoying every moment. He's been kind enough to settle into a somewhat predictable feeding/sleeping schedule and has even calmed down a bit in the evenings. There's been a lot less crying and we haven't had to take nearly as many "drives" to settle him. Having said that, I'm sure he'll throw something new at us tomorrow...
Some recent developments:
1. He's tracking objects, but hasn't quite started using his hands by grasping and reaching for the objects; although we put things in his hands and then clap and cheer as if he did it all by himself!
2. I have been grateful to only have to wake up once in the middle of the night for a feeding. I'm patiently awaiting the day I can sleep for more than 5 hours straight.
3. Levi has been smiling more and more everyday! He's even had brief episodes of laughter. It's so rewarding to finally have him respond to us - and with such a gift as a great smile!
