I am the worst when it comes to giving my babes tummy time. I felt with Pj, and again with Big C, that they were just too little during their first couple of months of life. They both cried and looked so uncomfortable that I always gave in and put them on their backs. I (all of a sudden) seem to remember tummy time when my babes turn 3 months. Tummy time is super important for a baby's muscle and mental development! So when both Pj and Big C turned 3 months I started implementing more regular tummy time. It looks to me that Big C is pretty strong and looking pretty comfortable on his tummy so I don't think I did anything negative by delaying his tummy time practice by a couple of months :). He is getting so big and strong...I already am missing my little baby (time for Baby #3?? Haha! Mark will have a heart attack when he reads that!). I love the newborn stage...when they are all new and cuddly. I also love this stage though - the growing and exploring stage. Now, just take a look at this picture - isn't he one handsome little man?!?! Lol! Also, take note of the ever present big blob of drool. He is one 'drooly' baby! We tried to give him Pj's amber necklace for the drool (and inevitable teething that will be happening any week now) but Pj noticed and had a

Day 17: Tummy Time!!
I know, I know. I have missed the last two days of my 30 Day Photo Challenge :(. I fell asleep on the couch both nights! I guess I am just one tired Momma! To make up for my sleepiness I will add two days to the end of my challenge (sounds fair to me!).

We tried to give him Pj's amber necklace for the drool (and inevitable teething that will be happening any week now) but Pj noticed and had aminor major meltdown over the loss of her necklace! I guess I'll be making a trip to the local Diaper Daze to pick up another one! I found that the necklace worked miracles on Pj and I am not willing to go through Big C's teething/drooling stage without one!
