My cutie patootie working his way around his playard. Daddy, oh Daddy, where are you? Jacob's developmental teacher noted a lot of progress on Jacob's mobility today. She thinks he is doing a great job and is looking at reducing his monthly hours in half.
Jeremiah is working late tonight, so I had to do everything by myself. I couldn't put Jacob on the floor without close supervision because he has gotten more mobile and a lot FASTER. He scoots backwards and pivots and gets from on place to another really fast. While I got the bath water and bottle ready, I placed him in the playard and he was fine...except, when I walked away, he rolled over the sleeping positioner (underneath the zippee blanket) and began to move around. I am pretty sure we will have to move the mattress down before he learns how to climb out of the playard on his own while we're asleep soon!
Jacob also threw up his entire dinner (5 oz. of milk and 1 oz. of sweet potatoes) tonight. He was crying while I was washing his bottles and I knew (motherly instincts) that he was going to spit up. I walked over and saw just a small amount of milk drippings from the side of his mouth, but when I looked at his facial expression, I knew he was choking on his dinner. I picked him up instantly and before I could situate him upside down in an elevated position, he threw up everything. It got all over his swing and the carpet too. I felt so bad because he was crying so much and I should have picked him up earlier to avoid the vomitting. He is okay now. I changed him and he played (for 2 loooong hours) like nothing happened. We're not worried about his recent vomitting because we don't think it's related to reflux...but more of him gagging (hand in mouth) himself and moving too much. It is definitely something we will be monitoring though.
