Happy New Year everyone! I have been wanting to write about my thoughts and feelings as the New Year was approaching but it proved to me a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. So that is still in the works (well, more still in the thinking stage) but I thought I'd post some pictures and a video first.
I had Jan 1 to 3 off in Japan so it was a nice 5 day weekend. I don't know what happened since its already gone and I have to go back to work tomorrow but it was certainly very nice to spend more time Isaac.
Isaac is now really interested in putting a lot of things in his mouth. In fact, he seems quite obsessed with it and its very funny. Every time we bring a toy towards him, he will start opening his mouth first and if you put your arm or hand near his mouth, he will start nibbling it. He doesn't just try to put them in his mouth. If he can't get it into his mouth, he will start licking it.
We also decided to going back to cutting open a hole with his nasal cannular as they don't have children/baby size nasal cannulars in Japan and the adult sized one (albeit size small) was really bothering his nostrils. He still doesn't like the cannular and tries to rub it off when he can but at least he is not constantly rubbing it like before when he had the two tubes inside his nostrils.
Also, he officially went over 5 kg tonight!
Okay, here are the pictures.
More pictures of Isaac on tummy time:


This one is kind of fuzzy but I kind of caught Isaac smiling a bit. Isaac in fact smiles a lot these days but for some reason, whenever I pull out the camera, he would stop smiling and start looking very seriously at the camera. ^_^

Isaac was sleeping on me and then woke up and started crying. I handed him to my dad who was visiting for Christmas and New Year to run and make his bottle. Before I got back, he had fallen back asleep again in my dad's arms like a drunken sailor!

This is a picture of Isaac eating one of his toys. He is particularly interested in eating or licking brightly colored toys or anything that is soft (fabrics, towels, stuffed animals etc.)

This is a very funny video of Isaac frantically trying to put another toy in his mouth. I was on the phone describing what Isaac was doing to Jong while trying to video tape him.
Take care and God bless,
Sonia
