Spencer smiling

Spencer keeps cooing more and more all the time. We really think that some of his coos sound like “hi”. Here is some video evidence of his cooing. Do you hear him say hi?

Spencer enjoying the bumbo chair

Since Spencer seemed to have such good head control from a very early age, we started experimenting with putting him in the Bumbo chair starting about one month. He didn’t like it very much at first, and was probably too young, but now he seems to like it, and will sit in it for 5-10 minutes at a time. He is also cooing more and more, which we really like. Here is a little video I shot of the guy in his bumbo chair.

Hello Spencer!

Spencer had his two month check-up today. He was very good while they poked and prodded him, and hardly cried at all. His stats at age 8 weeks 6 days are:

Sometimes we wonder if he is really our son, given that we are both kind of short and overweight!

Spencer sitting up on the couch

Two nights ago Spencer graced with us 8 hours of continuous sleep. It was very nice! He has also been showing off how well he can sit up. Clare set him on the couch and he did not fall over.

Lately we have been very impressed by Spencer’s head control, and by how much he seems to enjoy “tummy time”. We feel very fortunate in this regard, since most of our friends with children have all experienced their children utterly hating tummy time.

Occasionally Spencer will roll over from his stomach to his side or back, but I have yet to capture it on film, despite my encouraging. Here is a little video from last week of Spencer playing on his stomach.
