EuroLife: Day 268

More Pictures :)

We've been promising to post more photos for days now, so here they are! Little David is still quite little, but really gets cuter by the day! Early (very early) this morning, he finally found his fingers and was sucking quite happily for a few minutes before he lost them again. (He seems to like his middle and ring finger together, just like his cousin Eamon, but maybe this was a one time thing.) He spends a lot of the day trying to suck on his fingers, and gets so frustrated when he (almost always) can't get his hands under control. He used to at least take a pacifier when he was frustrated, but he's less and less interested in it each day, so we're hoping he gets this finger-sucking thing down sooner rather than later!

He is sleeping in his crib at night now, which is wonderful. He wakes up every 2-3 hours to eat, but other than that he'll stay in that crib until 9am!

Now for the photos: First, in his H&M baby helmet. They are really big here, they even had them in the hospital with the onesies. I wasn't sure about them when I saw them in the store, but they are just so cute on his little head! (He's also wearing his night-time baby straightjacket, or "swaddle me sleepsack", which keeps him from startling himself awake every 10 minutes.)



Snuggled in the Boppy pillow:


Snuggled up on the bed...

A friend here (Kirsten) gave us this sweater for David. Her mom made it, and it's really very sweet. It's huge on him, but very cute.


These shorts are hilarious. They actually have a fly, which is of course very useful for a 1 week old boy in diapers.


With his very happy and proud dad :)
