Eight weeks

His hair is growing in on top and his baby acne is mostly gone. His smiles are addictive, and thankfully frequent. For a while tonight, he was only happy when he was sitting up; he can hold his head up so well.

There are so many things I want to remember, like the way he leaves his pointer finger out when his fists are clenched, or the way he looks like he is playing air guitar or doing the breast stroke when he moves his arms. Or the sound of his laugh in his sleep. Or the way his head smells when he sleeps on my chest.

He loves his mama, and loves to be held, which makes it hard to capture all of these memories (I'm "typing" this with one thumb on my phone while he nurses.)

I love this baby boy.
