Silvan at eight weeks



Silvan has been working on his hand-eye coordination this week, and can grab the fairy that hangs over his changing table. He has started learning to drink from a bottle, and seems to be a natural at it. At first, Bruce seemed to be the person Silvan looked to for learning about things and looking around, while I was Silvan's source of cuddling, comfort, and food. This polarization of roles seems to be evening out some; Silvan will sometimes sleep in Bruce's sling, as here, and spends a lot of time talking and looking at things with me. I've begun reading him books, and he shows some interest in the pictures.
Silvan had his two month checkup this week, and now weighs 13.5 pounds! All his eating is paying off, and he is becoming a fat, healthy baby.
