Ryan is getting so much bigger and better!  He’s able to hold his head up in a supported sitting position for a few minutes at a time.  His alert periods are getting more frequent and he spends his time waving his arms legs about and just looking around while breathing like he is excited.  They last a couple of hours.  Eating seems to put him to sleep.  A very lovable baby and likes to be held if he’s fussy- will calm him right down.  His little thighs are getting so chunky, hard to resist chewing on them a little bit.   The other evening he slept for nearly 5 hours in row.  That was artificially induced by a car ride in his seat, but hey- if it works…. He’s really great about traveling and going places, but I’m too nervous to be gone from home for long, unless Dave is there for backup.  He’s also tracking objects from left to right, right to left and somewhat up to down now.  Likes the rattle toys and will follow them or turn his head to our voices.  It’s so rewarding to see him progress!!  He’s taken to his pacifier which I will be eternally grateful for and  Dave is still Best Dad Ever and I think we both fall in love with Ryan a little more each day.
