My biggest challenge with Joshua has become keeping him dry. He is what is termed as a "happy spitter". He spits up unbelievable amounts after meals. Sometimes, I wonder how much he keeps in him, but according to how much he is filling out and increasing chunkiness of his thighs, he is definitely getting the necessary calories. So maybe he drinks too much and spits out the excess? I also make sure he is wearing a bib during the day so that I don't have to change his clothes after every feeding. Joshua has also started drooling and blowing spit bubbles. He loves this activity and while it is super cute it another source of wetness. So I have a drooly, spitty baby.Joshua has become ticklish and lauphs quite heartily now when I tickle him. He loves it.
Besides smiling, laughing, spitting and blowing spit bubbles, he loves standing! Loves when we hold him in a standing position. I predict this baby will skip crawling and go right to walking...let's see if I am right.
We are dealing with hot weather here (finally!!!) which Joshi is not used to, so sleeping has been more challenging. He finds it difficult to fall asleep and stay asleep in the heat. What is more, he must be having another growth spurt as he has returned to coming for 2 middle of the night feedings around 3 am and 5 am. Hope he takes back to sleeping through the night again soon.
That is all for now. Today we have house cleaning and a walk in the forest on the roster. Will try to post more tomorrow!
