Mild Case

Dearest Joshua David~

Hello cutie!  You sure like waking up early these days.  I wonder why .... you used to sleep through the night better, but now you wake up early a few times a week.  :-P  This morning, you had a bottle at 1:20am!

Once we got moving later in the morning, you and I did your neck exercises and tummy time.  You also did really well with your barley, but you were a tad messy!  ;-)  You took a little nap after the barley, but once you woke up, I gave you a nice bath and cleaned your face!  :-)

Eliza came over and you had a good physical therapy appointment.  Since you're just a mild case of torticollis, you'll only need short term therapy.  You tend to keep your weight to the right and stretching out with your left hand to grab things (when on your belly).  I wonder if that means you'll be left handed?  Hummm ....

Eliza said that you were her "easiest and most content baby" .... way to go!  You have good sitting balance.  Also, you've mastered your head control to the left "passively" and we're seeing improvement "actively."  Yippie!  :-)

When daddy got home, we all went to the store to walk around and pick up a few groceries .... mainly we needed diapers and wipes for you!  We bought them in bulk, so you shouldn't run out anytime soon!  ;-)  I carried you around in the carrier and you kept grabbing and pulling on my shirt.

This evening, you played with daddy on the bed and showed him your tummy time.  We're both very proud of you and love you very much!  We're so thankful for you in our lives!

Tomorrow's another big day!

Sleep tight little one!

I love you!
