Tummy Time, Play Time, Bath Time

Another week has passed and Nathan continues to grow and change. He's more and more alert with each day that goes by and I'm taking advantage with lots of interaction and playtime. It feels a little silly to be talking and cooing to someone all day who can't respond just yet but I'm hoping it helps him develop!
I'm also having to seriously pull from the depths of my memory for songs and rhymes to sing to him. We're going to need to invest in some iTunes before too long because he's going to get sick of the same old tunes.
Don't let the scowl fool you - it's not all serious around here!
Our pediatrician said we should start tummy time at one month, so I've tried it a couple times to get a head start. Let's just say it's not the most productive...

And usually ends in one tired little monkey closing his eyes and falling asleep.

We love our activity mat, though, and stare in wonder at the colors, patterns and animals that hang from the bars.

We've also given Nathan his first "real" bath in the tub. He did a good job and didn't really fuss at all, which is a step up from the sponge bath!

He's a growing bub - look at that tummy!

As we continue to venture out and experience new things, I am hoping to be better about snapping more photos. We have to document more of this cutie pie!
