Well, we think that baby is going to be even bigger than his brother. At his check-up yesterday he weighed in at 13.6 lbs and measured 25 inches. He is getting so tall that I've started putting him in 6 month sleepers.
He really looks at me and Frank when we hold him, and he likes to smile at us. His favorite thing besides eating right now is for me to make faces and goo-goo noises at him...I'll try to get some of that on video soon.
His least favorite thing, that we can tell, is having a wet or dirty diaper. He is much more sensitive to this than Zach was/is. However, he's been okay to let it go longer at night--last night he surprised me with two 5-hour stretches between feedings and diaper changes.
He's got lots of scratches on his face and his scalp is at the flaky stage. Luckily he's still got all that hair to camouflage.
His eyes are already a deep shade of brown to match his Daddy's.
Zach has started to take more interest in him the past couple of weeks. He likes to tell us when he's "cwying, cwying" and to put the pacifier back in his mouth. He has always liked to take his own diapers to the bin, which is helpful, and he will take Gabe's too. He also gives him goodnight kisses.
