We love our little man so very much! He is the highlight of our days. Every little thing he does is so dang cute and melts our hearts.
Tyke has changed so much in the last 4+ weeks. His little cheeks are getting chubby, he's got a cute little double chin, his belly is getting round (he can hardly breath because of it when I lean him forward in the tub at bath time). He has started to really look at Chad and I like he understands what we're saying. He'll turn his head to us when we talk to him and sometimes, but still not often enough, he even gives us little smiles that just makes our day! Especially when he wrinkles his cute little nose as he does it.
Tyke LOVES his daddy! There definitely comes a few times in the day that he's had enough of me and the only thing that will calm him down is being in his daddy's arm. I love that Chad and Tyke have staring contests daily. They also go for daily walks out to get the mail. Tyke seems to really like being outside even though it's still a bit cold. When they come back in the house it's cuddle time. I love that Mr. Tyke knows right where he's comfy on Chad's chest. If Chad doesn't get him positioned just right Tyke will wiggle and grunt and squirm until he's where he wants to be and that's always tucked right up under Chad's chin. Tyke will grasp Chad's collar and lay there until they're both snoozing. It's my favorite thing to watch!
We've just started to do tummy time with Tyke on the floor (are we bad or what? He gets plenty of tummy time on Chad's chest though) and he does really, really well. It probably takes him a good 3 or 4 minutes to start getting mad. Tyke loves his little vibrating chair. He sleeps really well in it, and we use it every night at the dinner table so he can join in on the dinner conversations. Bath time has gotten better with him. No more screaming his head off, he actually enjoys it and gets upset when I get him out. I think that's just because he hates to be naked and gets cold really fast. As soon as he's wrapped up nice and warm in his towel he calms right down. And then it's lotion time and he's mad again. He still doesn't like getting lotioned up. I tell him every time that it will make the girls go wild (who doesn't like a good smelling baby?) but he's not buying it =)
Tyke has been a mostly good little sleeper. He usually gets up around 3 am and 6 am but every 4th night it seems he struggles with sleep and just wants to be held and talked to. It's exhausting and frustrating but in a way I love it! When he does sleep our kiddo is probably the noisiest little sleeper we've ever met. He snores, grunts, coos and farts non stop. We get a lot of good laughs out of it.
All in all our little Tyke is such a good baby and we are so blessed!
