Five Months Old
My parents both think Michael's issues with the feeding bottle may be partly due to pre-teething. He sometimes seems to be trying to massage his gums with the bottle, as is also the case when he's eating his toys.
Another fairly low-stress day. He surprised me by sitting up in his mini-recliner (or "bouncer," I think it's called). He doesn't especially like being placed in this recliner, but it's good for about five minutes if my arms are getting tired. This time, he moved himself from a lying-back position into a sitting forward position, with a great show of exertion, and listing to one side -- reminded me of the Pope.
Napped at 11, twenty minutes. He watched a little Teletubbies in his megasaucer. At 2 bundled him up for a visit to his grandparents, a half hour down the road. He played with some Fisher Price toys that my sisters and I had when we were kids. Pawed at my mom, apparently hoping she was another milk source.
I'd give this day a B+ -- only because my fatigue level's higher than yesterday. I should go to bed now, though I probably won't.
