Here are some pictures I took that didn't make our Christmas card this year:
And of course, the two that did make the cut:
I'm not sure why he was so happy, he just loves to have his picture taken usually!
John continues to amaze us. He is getting so big, right around 16 pounds (yes, he has quadrupled his birth weight!). He has added several new sounds to his vocal repertoire, including a high-pitched squeal/sound that is his newest. It is precious! John has, on a couple of occasions, slept through the night, from about 9:30pm to 5:30 am, where he will eat and then go back to sleep. He doesn't do this regularly, but has done it, which is really nice! He's getting better at staying in a sitting position when placed that way, and loves to play with everything! It looks like he might be cutting a tooth on his bottom jaw (or rather, it feels like he might be getting one- he won't really let us look but is happy to let us poke around in there with our fingers!) He is rolling over more, and last night decided to turn over onto his side several times while sleeping. He is doing really well with getting his legs into a crawling position but never gets his arms right. He is doing so many things for his chronological age (7 months) and just about everything for his adjusted age (5 1/2 months), which we need to consider for developmental milestones due to his premature birth. All in all, things are peachy! I'm really looking forward to being home with him every day for the next two weeks!
