6 weeks old

James Peyton


"Dancing"


Thank Heaven For Little Boys
James is six weeks old! This week he has discovered his voice and it is the cutest thing. He loves to hear himself say "ohhhhhhhhh" and will make the sound a couple of times in a row then smile. He also loves music! The middle picture is of him on our bed "dancing". I had a mix of music on my ipod playing and a song by Beyonce came on and his little legs and arms started moving so fast! I of course grabbed my camera then called Sean and told him his son loves Beyonce. He laughed but asked if I would please play New Order or Depeche Mode for him instead. Here is what babycenter.com says about how James is growing:

Now that your baby's awake for longer periods during the day, you can use these times to support his sensory development. Try singing your favorite lullabies or playing music.You don't have to limit yourself to children's songs. Fill the house with the sounds of music — from the Black Eyed Peas to Mozart — and watch as your baby expresses his pleasure through coos, lip smacks, and jerking arm and leg movements

How funny! I wrote the first paragraph about music and dancing before I read the 6 week update from babycenter.com I guess James is right on track developmentally.
