Piper also is starting to like 'flying' where I will lie on my back and put him up on my knees to 'fly' through the air. I get the biggest grins out of him and I laugh extra hard too looking at those chubby cheeks hanging down!
Piper is such a happy baby and really a joy to cuddle and play with. He is so ready to give you a smile any time of day...even when he's tired. The nights are sometimes long with a lot of crying...he just can't stay asleep at night, but it will get better. I've been calling my sister-in-law, Melissa the most to vent and ask for advice. She is a great listener and has good advice.
Bob came over and gave Matthew, Finley and I a fun-size candy bar for a treat. Finley ate his within minutes and later found Daddy's. He knew it was Daddy's and had been told not to eat it because we were going to give it to him when he got home. Apparently, the temptation was too great for Finley to resist. It was hard not to laugh as he came up to me and said "Uh-Oh". I knew exactly what he was saying it for because of all the chocolate around his mouth. He then led me to the crumpled up wrapper on the floor. At the end of the movie he says "workout". I thought that was a fitting thing to do to work off the calories and fat he just ate!
Daddy time with Piper. He smiles a lot for Matthew and likes to stare at him. Matthew is able to hold him like I'm not able to. If I sit with Piper he gets antsy and just wants to move, but Matthew can sit on the couch and hold Piper for 30 minutes and he's so content. I know Matthew has a really calm spirit and Piper must sense this. I really appreciate those still moments...watching Matthew and Piper quietly bonding together.
Piper lying on the floor. When he gets upset or tired when he's on the floor, he will lift up the brace and slam it down on the floor really hard. I dread the day he does this in his crib. Not only will it be loud, but his brace will tear the wood to pieces!
