Likes and Dislikes

We think it is about time for you all to get to know Beau a little better! He is weighing in now at just over 14lbs and he is 25 inches long. When we straighten out his legs, we can't believe how long his body is! :)

Likes:
- Mornings! It is his favorite time of day. He just giggles and laughs for a good hour.

- Tubby time! This is a time that we look forward to. He really likes the warm water and could stay in there for a long time. Sometimes, he gets a little grumpy with us when it is time to get out.

- Binki! Beau is absolutely a Binki Boy. Kameron and I have bought like 10 binki's because we have to have one wherever we go. Beau could not live without it. It is so nice that he will take a binki, it calms him down so much. Sometimes it is a complete life saver! It can be a little funny at times, because we think that he cries just becuase it has fallen out of his mouth.

- Hands! He has recently found his hands and cannot get enough of them. They are constantly touching his face and tugging his binki out. ( This frustrates him ) he just doesn't understand why he can't have his binki and his hands in his mouth at the same time :)

- Sleep! Last, but not least, SLEEP! He loves to sleep and we have to admit that it is nice for us as well. He naps really well during the day and when it comes to night time, we couldn't ask for a better baby. He doesn't like to go to sleep until about 10. But he will sleep until 5 and then after he is fed, goes back to sleep till 8 and sometimes even until 10. AWESOME!

Dislikes:
- Spitting up! He fusses everytime he spits up. We just went to the doctor for this because he seriously spits up 30 times a day! and it gets really stinky and sour smelling. He has Acid reflux and it just starting on some medicine. Hope it helps!

- 8-9pm! This seems to be Beau's out of control fussy time. It doesn't last long, but we aren't sure why. It might just be his way of winding himself down and getting ready for sleep.

- Hands covered! As was said above, he loves his hands and if you cover them, you are in big trouble! When he is sleep, we feel as if his little hands get cold, so we will cover them. Most of the time this will wake him up and he will uncover them.

That is our little boy in a nut shell :) He is the best thing to ever happen to us!
