My sister got him the moustache binky and it’s amazing.
My friend Kate at Framed Cooks hooked Squish up with some AMAZING books!
Sitting with his cat.
He’s been very busy trying to text his girlfriends all week.
ET phone home anyone?
Squish tried oatmeal for the first time. He liked it!
We took our first stroller walk of the year- he’s big enough to sit forward facing now!
We had some long nights this week. Squish figured out how to roll back to front…and he won’t stop doing it. But he hates being on his stomach and even though he can roll over front to back, he chooses to just scream instead. SO, he does this about 900 times per night which meant we didn’t get much sleep. That face in the bottom left is how I felt by the end of the week.
We also had to take him to the doctor because I noticed a weird ridge on the back of his head. They sent us to get xrays because they were worried the bones were fusing early, but after a stressful morning, they said everything looks fine and it’s probably just the plates shifting around in his head as he grows.
We had a relaxing weekend and even slightly improved in the sleep department on Saturday night so that was good!
And in case you need a few laughs:
