By the way, has she checked to make sure that the straps aren't too tight in that car seat? Babies grow so fast at this age that sometimes it feels like you are loosening them up once a week! And it's especially important with little pudge-pots to make sure that no parts are being squeezed or pinched


I did ask her about this, but I'm going to ask her again. There is no way that fat boy is not getting pinched somewhere!

Remember when they brought him home and had to strap him to that wedge when he went to sleep? Well, when he got a bit older and more alert, he pitched a wall-eyed-fit until they removed him from that. He hated being strapped to that thing. The car seat seems to be the same thing, I'm thinking.

Every time her number comes up on ID Caller, I'm thinking, "Please don't let him be crying in the background!" LOL!

Neither was I!!! Actually, they are so happy and her husband loves his job and the people he is working with. They love their church, so it's all good.

Maybe he's claustrophobic.

My grandfather was extremely so, and he could not STAND to see a child in a playpen. He'd go get them right out.

That's a thought! My son and I are sooooo claustrophobic. I am so claustrophobic that I can't buy a pair of shoes with straps. If I get in a vehicle, I can't sit in the middle. I have to be able to get my feet out from under the covers, so I only tuck the flat sheet in at the middle and not all the way along the foot of the bed.

Yes, we seem to! I am enjoying it, although, he doesn't pay that much attention to me when I'm around. LOL! I'm sure he will as he gets older.
Yeah, he will definitely pay more attention to you when he's older. Ya know, I was thinkin' - maybe the little fella is just so intelligent and inquisitive and wants to move & explore & learn, that he can't be content with just sitting there... he has to keep absorbing information. That's how my son was! He began walking at 7.5 months & was the most inquisitive baby/child/teen! He seemed restless unless he was learning something new, or unless he was busy & keeping his mind occupied. He got himself into trouble every single time he got "bored." And the bigger he got, the bigger the trouble he'd find. LOL So I guess I'm saying, keep him busy...?

Oh... *sigh* I will be praying for your nephew, PO. For sure! My son is scheduled to be deployed to Afghanistan in June 2011. Thank you for your prayers. I appreciate it very much!!

That is exactly what the doctor told her, so you are probably right. Boy, he's going to be a handful! LOL!

Honey, when it gets in the 50's in South Texas, we are freezing! Not one of us could survive Michigan for even a week!

LOL - - too funny! It just hit me as strange knowing it's not that cold there.

He's probably HOT!

LOL! It is cold and windy here. She and I, generally, have about a 10 degree difference in our temperatures. So, it's a little colder where she is. But, I did ask her if she is bundling him up too much. She said she checks his body temperature and he is fine.
