Oliver is 10 weeks old today and when I look back on just a few weeks ago I see that he has really changed so much. He is more interactive, he is bigger, and his features are changing into his own unique look instead of the generic newborn look. He is interested in things around him and I notice him mesmerized by the ceiling fan, gazing at brightly colored artwork on the wall, and watching his sister with a smile. When we are on a stroller walk sometimes he'll be staring directly at me, and I know my features are probably fuzzy to him at that distance, but it is still so sweet. Oliver wakes up for the day sometime between 5:30-6:00 AM (!), which is when the sun is rising and lighting up the bedroom. He is always happy and smiling in the morning, which is when the above photo was taken. Rise and shine!
In the last week or so Oliver seems to have discovered his tongue and does a lot of rolling it around and sticking it in and out of his mouth. It's hilarious. I remember Eloise going through a tongue phase, too. Is it just my kids?
I think I've mentioned before that Oliver and Eloise bathe together before bedtime. It's so fun and Oliver really seems to like it. He doesn't fuss in the bathtub and he's all smiles once he's out, dressed in PJs, and clean. Eloise watches very intently when wash him and always reminds me to wash his elbows.
Drying off:
All clean:
I am struck by how similar Oliver and Eloise look in their bath time photos around the same age. Eloise is 7 weeks in these photos, so a little younger:
