Day 24 - He's Smiling (and other milestones)

He's smiling... not exactly at me, but at a point located approximately 3 inches above my eyes. He can stare at that point on the horizon all day (or maybe one solid minute). And, if I move him in a certain way, he smiles. Dr. Karin says it's not likely. Others insist it's gas. But they're all dead wrong.

Yesterday represented another milestone for us. Our friends, Todd and Laura, brought over yummy Lebanese food from Mama's. We four proceeded to sit at the... you know, that device with four legs and a flat top, used by adults for holding food and socializing... it's surrounded by sitting contraptions... you know what I mean... the... dining room table! The little guy was fast asleep in his vibratoplex.

Today represented yet another milestone. We took our son for a walk on the beach. He adores the beach! Or so we surmised based upon his newly-decrypted Cryinglessness Scale (patent pending).

Most of the other milestones thus far have to do with spitting up or otherwise testing our reflexes with sudden substantive releases at inopportune moments - I shan't get into the details. Karin is particularly good at inspiring such surprises.
