Tummy Sleeping Angel

He is like his mom in more ways than one but today we discovered his true love of sleeping on his tummy (just like me). He has been lying on me or on the couch for hours it seems and he hasn't budged. He is perfect in every way and when I look over at him, I can't help but wonder what Angel lost him here with us. My sleepy baby...

Rowan has discovered his hands and tongue this week. He sucks and sucks his hand when he can remember to get it to his mouth. When he isn't sucking he is sticking his tongue out in the funniest ways. His tongue is very long, it reaches below his tiny little dimpled chin! Watching him and his million faces is one of my favourite pastimes these days but, it is the playing we get in before his morning nap that I love most. He laughs on his change table as daddy and I tickle his chin or kiss him all over. Speaking of kissing...I swear he understands what a kiss is. His tongue discovery has made my kissing game a little wet though. He actually drooled in my mouth the other day. I never thought I would think baby drool was a good thing but I'll take the drool if it means getting a humongous smile and giggle out of my little man.

Rowan's "gas" problem seems to be under control now thanks to Infacol which he gets when I have too much milk. I am glad that I can have cow's milk in my coffee now. I am nervous to attempt icecream even though I dream of having a big old soft serve cone from the "Chips and Dairy" down the street. Now look who is drooling. Damn!
