Week 20

Bennett continues to amaze us every day. He has officially graduated to sleeping in his crib full time, as of last week - and no longer needs to be swaddled to stay asleep. He is rolling from his back to his stomach and the other way around, he just won't do it on command...maybe we should look into giving him treats? Yesterday he spent some quality time with his big brother Gnarly. Dad played fetch with Gnarly and, after officially being scared at Gnarly's sudden sometimes spastic movements, Bennett began to squeal every time the ball was tossed. I think it is the beginning of a long friendship between the peanut and the puppy. Bennett also met Jala, the acupuncturist, for the first time yesterday. While Mom & Dad received some much needed puncturing, Bennett and Jala toured the office and chatted. They both thoroughly enjoyed meeting each other and it was a great way for Mom & Dad to get a little R&R. Thank you, as always, Jala! Bennett also seems to be developing his sense of humor - a necessity to be a part of the family. He catches on when Mom and Dad are joking or egging him on. He hasn't quite developed his giggle yet but it is only a matter of time. He has been sizing up everything we eat too so it won't be long before we are shoving something other than milk into his pie hole!
