10 1/2 weeks

At 10 1/2 weeks Boston is really starting to gain a personality. He is babbling and cooing a lot. Especially in the mornings around 630 or 7 he DOES NOT want to go back to sleep at that time, he wants to sit propped up on your legs and "talk" to you. But you cannot take this time for granted because it switches from happy cooing to crying or even screaming in an instant. Boston is smiling a lot more when you talk to him and actually responding to your facial expressions. He is learning to become a better sleeper, at least he is having a few more good days than he had previously had in the past. He is to where he usually only wakes up 1 to 2 times a night. Hes very very active, always moving which can be quite frustrating to both him and us when he is trying to go to sleep, because he will jerk himself awake regardless of being swaddled.
At 10 1/2 weeks Boston is now 11.5lbs. He has horrible dry skin and a very flaky head. He is always constipated and never goes without is intervening every 3-4 days. (We are hoping my mom is right and its something they all go through and grow out of) His colic has improved and he doesn't have screaming fits quite as much as he used to. However his reflux is still present and he throws up a lot and you can hear milk coming up in this throat.
At 10 1/2 weeks I am loving this little guy more and more each day. I hate that he is getting bigger cause I would love him to be small and a baby forever, but at the same time I love all the new developments to his personality hes so much fun.
