The Boy

After careful consideration of various heroes from mythology and Irish lore, we have decided on a new name for Lizard Loaf. He will now be known on the blogosphere as The Boy.

The Boy is on top of the world right now. He's terminally cute, as you can see. He's got amazing head control. He's reaching for objects and eventually bats at them or grabs them. He tracks objects with his head, and with his eyes alone. And the big change that I forgot to mention is he's breast-feeding! That's right. The Boy is no longer aspirating, and he's been breast-feeding for a month now. He's become something of a connoisseur, actually. Now he won't take a bottle. Ever. That's okay by me.

Her Nibs is even more taken with him, if that's possible. She thinks he's the most beautiful creature of all. She said "I wish I had slanted eyes...*sigh*..." And she figures he doesn't even have Down syndrome anymore since he isn't aspirating. I love that girl.
