Entertaining the baby
Lex has about a ten-minute attention span these days, so I’m constantly trying different things to entertain him when he’s awake. Yesterday we tried out the exersaucer and the high chair with toys attached to the tray. Both were mildly successful. He doesn’t quite “get” the exersaucer yet. He just sat in it and chewed on his hands. And he sat in the high chair long enough for Tim and I to eat lunch, but then he cried to get out.
“What do I do in this thing?”
Lex was so funny at the doctor’s visit yesterday. He really turned on the charm and flirted with both the receptionist and the doctor. He was all smiles. I almost got jealous! Turns out he has a mild case of eczema and we need to apply vaseline and cortizone cream to his earlobe multiple times a day. No big deal apparently.
