about a boy, part 2

Today, the artist formerly known as Wiggle is a stunning sixteen-weeks-old. We're almost to the age of teething, jumperoos, and solid foods. On a cold and snowy January day I wrote a top ten list of fun facts about Will, and on this cold but sunny March evening I figured it's time for an update. Here are the top ten facts about my almost four-month-old little boy:

1. He rolled over from his back to his tummy today! When he gets mad enough, anything is possible.

2. He loves sitting in his Bumbo Seat,



3. and hanging out on his playmat with Sir Chimes-a-lot and Mr. Shark. Mr. Shark is sort of a stoner-type dude, but we love him anyway.



4. Those eyes are still a deep blue, and will likely stay that way. He didn't get them from his mommy or his daddy.

5. He is two feet tall and weighs about fourteen pounds.

6. He's got a big head, just like his daddy.

7. He HATES Baby & Me Pilates. I figured we'd give it a go in an effort to get out and meet some moms and babies, but we spend most of the class standing and bouncing while everyone else does their exercises. It's okay; it's sort of a yuppie thing to do anyway.

8. When mom wasn't around, Grandpa put him in a swing at the park and Grandma let him taste an apple. I guess that's what grandparents are for.

9. If mom's taking night duty, he wakes up around 1 and 4. If it's dad's turn, which it usually is (bless his heart), it's usually 3 and 6.

10. Breast milk continues to be a big, big hit.
