Waking and Walking
Finn is getting bigger and more interesting by the day. He's packing on the oz's and he's spending a lot more time awake than just a couple weeks ago. When he's awake, he spends a lot of time looking around, tracking shapes and faces, and trying to figure out if those little hands that are waving around belong to him. Most of the time he is really calm, and seems to enjoy sitting on the front porch with me, watching the world go by.
Today I tried out a new sling so I could wear him on my chest and walk around hands-free. He really dug it--fell asleep and didn't make a sound for about an hour as I walked down to the coffee shop and back. Being hands-free is really a luxury--it feels like I spend about 98% of my time holding him. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but it really hampers my ability to do anything else (like eat lunch!).
We are visiting the pediatrician on Thursday for our 1-month checkup. I can't wait to find out how much he weighs! He's a thirsty kid and seems to be thriving, which makes us very happy.

Glad to know that the sling works and most of all that Mr. Finn likes the ride! Sure will continue to come in handy.
