Bath time and Bumbo

We've been trying to let Nolan get a new perspective on things, so we've been propping him up in his boppy with blankets and pillows. We tried the exersaucer last week too, but his head isn't quite that strong yet. So I figured we might as well get him one of those Bumbo seats....that's what they're for! Here he is in his new seat for the first time:




It looks like it's made of hard plastic, but it's actually a kind of soft foam. I tried to get a color that we could use later (much later!) if we have a girl, but they didn't have a lot to choose from, so we ended up with 'aqua'. There's a tray that comes with it, so we put some of his toys on it and he just kind of looked at them. He didn't seem completely thrilled with the whole thing, but it was right before bath time/bedtime, and he must have exhausted!


Speaking of bath time....Nolan loves it! I'm so glad, because I would hate it if he was crying the whole time. He loves splashing his feet and hands in the water. Here's a funny picture from last night - I think in his head he's saying "Why do you people keep talking to me in those weird voices?"











I thought this was a good picture.....too bad Brad's finger is in the way.....haha Nolan always has this really serious look on his face, like he's trying to take everything in and decide if he's cool with it or not. I wonder who he gets that from?















We got a couple of Baby Einstein movies for Nolan over the weekend, so he watched one last night about your first movements. These movies are amazing - they are hardly any words, just music and sounds, but any baby that I've seen watch them is just zoned in the whole time. They have puppets and animals and babies all thrown in the mix. When the babies came on the screen, Nolan would smile really big....it was too cute!


We're headed back to Indiana this weekend for a short trip. Brad won two free airline tickets on the radio last year (he's so lucky!) so we needed to use them before they expired. Our flight leaves right before Nolan usually goes to bed, so hopefully he'll be the same little angel he was last time on the plane!
