Happy 16 week birthday!





Kieran is nearly 4 months old today and look out ladies... he's a chick magnet! What with those big blue eyes and full, pink mouth- such a cutie! Of course mommies tend to be a bit biased when it comes to their babies but- just look at him!
So this week we are working on getting Kieran out of the carseat and mommy/daddy's bed and into his co-sleeper and crib so that he is used to sleeping flat on his back in a more open space as he will have to do this at daycare next month (I can't believe it's next month! Gulp...!) I am proud to report that he slept all of last night- in two stretches: 7 hours and then three hours- in the co- sleeper and has napped twice now in his crib- go big boy! Mommy has also learned something this week- just because it says to do something a certain way in a baby book, doesn't mean it's the best way or only way. So back to nursing prior to sleep- experts be damned!

Kieran the lab rat!

Kieran participated in an infant experiment in Mizzou's psych department yesterday- he's mommy's little guinea pig! He basically just watched a very dull pupet show for 10 minutes and although mommy was getting a bit bored, Kieran, surpisingly, seemed very intersted and even talked a few times! We left with this video (kinda long) and $15- not a bad deal over all!

Getting to know you...











Kieran and cousin Presley got a chance to hang out together yesterday at Grandma/Grandpa's place. They spent their time on their backs mostly, staring at mommy's/auntie's crazy faces and exploring each others hands/mouths with their own hands/mouths. A good time was had by all!
