Well, the honeymoon is officially over. Suttie has now figured out how to roll from his back to his belly, making it impossible to leave him alone unless he’s strapped into some kind of baby-containing device. Thankfully, we invested in a number of socially-acceptable baby cages before he was born. Because of this latest acrobatic feat, our new game involves laying him on his back, watching him flip over, then repeating the process again and again until he collapses from exhaustion. That way, everybody wins.
So, what else is new? Well, I was in Babies ‘R Us the other day spending a small fortune on diapers, when I noticed that they had Halloween costumes for sale (yes, in early August). Now, while I think that the tiny giraffe and the cuddly polar bear costumes (each of which could teach a lesson in irony) are quite cute, I would like to find a costume that really suits my son. Something like a giant, drooling turkey leg or a crawling rack of ribs. So if anyone sees any ham-cured costumes, please let me know asap.
Suttie also had his four-month pictures taken recently, and they’re, of course, adorable. I say “of course” because what mother is going to say that her baby’s pictures look like doo? Unlike his sleeping newborn pics, these show some of his zany, attention-seeking personality as he twists and turns in his crib to look at the camera. He may very well have a future in plus-size modeling or, at the very least, as a spokesbaby for Gerber’s new Husky line.
