Discoveries -- Fingers & Splashing

He's found his hands.  At least enough to put them in his mouth.  He isn't looking at them yet, just sucking on them.  We're not sure which finger/s he's interested in, or if he wants his whole hand to suck on.  Not that drool is a discovery, but he's also started drooling a lot more.  The books say that means teething is coming!  Ouch!  We've offered him his teether a few times and he seems to be interested in it, more so for the temperature right out of the freezer then chewing on it. 

Most naps he wakes up in a puddle of drool.  So now I'm starting to understand why we have so many bibs.  We have 20+ bibs, and when you aren't formula feeding things don't really get that messy.  Well with the drooling, we'll be putting those bibs to good use!

I've started bathing him in the big tub with his bath chair.  He's loving being a bit more submerged in the water and has discovered how to splash around and get both of us soaked!












He loves the tub, but really despises getting out.  I'm not sure if its because he wants to stay and play in the water or if he doesn't like the feeling of the cold hitting his skin before I get him dressed.


One thing is for sure, is that he sleeps like an old pro after tubby time.
