Progress Report

Paul is almost five weeks old now! Here's what he is doing these days:
- Getting a little tummy time.
- The cobra. If we put him on our chests, he will arch his upper body back and turn his head slowly from side to side!
- Getting fatter. At his last pediatricians appointment, he weighed 8 pounds 10 ounces!
- Getting taller. He has grown and inch and a half since he was born....he's now 21 inches long
- Making eye contact ( or so we would like to believe)
- Chortling. He sounds like John Stewarts impression of George Bush
- Spending more time awake and alert
- Eating incessantly
- Recovering from a little battle with baby acne.

Yesterday, we celebrated several "firsts"
- First time out of state (went to New Jersey)
- First flea market (slept in the Bjorn on Daddy's chest the whole time)
- First auction (served his purpose by distracting potential competitors, allowing Dad to win a pair of matching taxidermy water buffalo!)
