WOOO HOOOO!!!!

MATT ROLLED OVER!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHH!!!! YAY!!!!!!! I put him down for tummy time on my bed behind me (I was on the computer), and I was looking back to make sure he was ok and doing well. He was trying hard to lift his head and he pretty much kept it 90 degrees and chest off the ground the entire time. I was very proud and I looked back to my computer to finish reading something. I heard him fussing and turned around AND HE WAS ON HIS BACK!!! I am SO HAPPY! I was JUST telling him (because I talk to him all the time :-P) that he could roll over if he wanted to and I wished I knew what would motivate him to do it. HOLY CRAP! I mean, I had just said that like a minute before. I am so, so, proud of him!!!
Hey, when you have no leg/arm muscles and your head is 1/4 of the size of your body, rolling onto your back from your tummy is no easy feat! Wow. Okay. Well I just HAD to post about that. I am just so, so happy. It makes up for last night.
So, last night I was at my friend Jana's house, watching a movie and holding Matt. He was hungry so I was feeding him and watching the tv. I looked down and the bottle was pretty much gone. Cool, I thought, he finished that fast. I took it out and that very instant a white flood came out of his mouth and nose, all over his face, all over my shirt, all over the couch cushion and the pillow. EVERYWHERE!!! It was in his eyes, his nose...oh my god! Anyway I freaked out but Jana said not to worry that babies do that, and it was just an air bubble. Wow.
Oh, I took a video of him rolling over! Very cute.
Okay, I have to go to MY 6 week check up, I'll talk at you later!

Nothing, As Usual

Nothing to post about...just posting to post. I was reading American Baby today and it said that by 4-6 weeks a baby should be mimicking your facial expressions. It said to stick your tongue out at him and to watch him stick his out too. I was like, "no way!", turned to him, and stuck my tongue out. And guess what? He stuck his out back!!! Ahh!!! I did it again, and he did it again! Yay! He is also cooing on a regular basis and smiling. I was watching tv and I looked down and he was staring intently at me with a really wide closed-mouth smile. It was a little...creepy to be honest. But cute!
Anyway, just a little update. Sean leaves for drill tomorrow night/Monday morning (3 am) and I'm all alone for 5 days! It'll be tiring doing ALL the work but I will enjoy it because it's my last week with him before I go back to work. Then I'll be gone for 10 hours a day 5 days a week :-(.
Okay, I'm going to go attend to Matt. He is making the most adorable coo noises and I have to go see him because he is sooo cute!
Yeah, no post-partum here! :-P
