Smiles
Today I can offically say that my son smiled at me. I can't express how happy that makes me. To see this little baby, smiling at you, knowing that it is for you. He is so cute when he smiles. Today he was pretty alert. We sang, danced and played on his mat. It was fun to actually play with him instead of feeding, changing and just soothing all day.
He still isn't sleeping through the night. Some nights are better than others so I can't always complain. I'm hoping that pretty soon he will sleep 4-5 hours at a time. The most we've gotten so far was 3 1/2 once. My husband and I are still trying to work out the best schedule for who keeps him when and who sleeps where. My husband seems to be getting less sleep and he has to work so I need to make sure he is getting more rest.
I have a spa appointment tomorrow. It was my mother's day present. I'm getting a 30 minute scrub, 60 minute facial and 60 minute massage. It will be the longest I've been away from the baby. I must say I'm looking forward to it.
Tonight we have a play date with two friends who have babies. He usually likes to see them so it should be fun.
BTW, congrats to the readers of this who had their babies!

My son isn't such an angel anymore. :) Once he turned around 2 weeks old, he started having more fussy time. It is SO hard because I don't know why he is crying. I am also breastfeeding, so I sometimes have doubt whether he is eating enough. He is constantly chewing his hands, so that isn't a good indication whether he is hungry or not. This is my second child, so you would think I would know what to do! :) But, they always say that all kids are different. What calmed my first son down, doesn't calm my second son down. So, we are trying all new things! So far, he likes the sound of the hairdryer and loves to be held and swaddled. :) Enjoy the time away from your son! :) I seem to be able to appreciate my kids more when I am away from them once in awhile. :)
