Joe is growing into his new space so amazingly – every day is something a little different. Sure, he does baby things. But the little things that come up every new day! He’ll sit and stare at the world from the safety of my lap – or Bel’s, just absorbing everything. He’ll wake up and stretch for ages, and his endurance for interaction is growing so rapidly. Its so hard to remember he’s only been out in the air for 9 weeks.
He’s starting to learn about hands, and getting strong. He’ll lie on his stomach and keep his head up for ages, so keen to see what’s happening. Curious, and just soaking up whatever we give him. He really does teach us the meaning of peaceful at times.
…but like all babies, the calm comes between the storms. Understandably, he lives from moment to moment. No concept of ‘dinner will be here soon’, or ‘if you’re tired, you need to sleep’. Just whatever experience passes through at the time. Its incredible to watch, as all parents will know.
I’ll post more photos of the little man soon. He’s a changin’…
