Play Time!

Cole is becoming more alert and aware of his surroundings each day.  He even gave Mom a little smile this morning while playing (...or so she thinks. There was no gas or poop involved, so she thinks it was the real deal).  

He likes spending time on his play mat and looking up at the toys hanging down. 

Ralphie also likes to get in on the action, although she would like to think that Cole's rattling and squeaking toys are for her. 

We've been working on building Cole's neck strength with some tummy time. He pretty much hates it and cries most of the time. Here he's basically given up. 

(Check out the rolls of pudge on his arms, by the way). 

After a long day of playing, crying, eating, and pooping, Cole likes to spend some quality time cuddling. Mom can't resist her cuddly little guy.
