Cannon playing with his Great Aunt Pat. This is the play session where he first laughed.

It has been a tremendous 10 days for Cannon, firsts happening all over the place. He grasped a rattle for the first time (the picture someday he will never forgive me for), he is now laughing, he can hold his hands, and he can recognize mommy and daddy by sight. People have been telling me that the firsts would start coming fast and furious, and they were right. Everyday is a new adventure!!

6 weeks old...growing fast

The days are just flying by, 6 weeks already. Cannon is getting more and more active. He is smiling and cooing at Mom every chance he gets, he is starting to grab and hold on to things. Cannon really enjoys time on his back where he can stretch and kick. He is responding to both mommy and daddy's voices and tracking things as they move. I know I sound like a broken record, but it is amazing to watch them grow and develop. He teaches me something new every week.

Cannon has also become a regular travel. He loves getting in his car seat and going out and about. He also loves being outside. Mommy takes him for walks every chance we get when the weather is good. This is a good thing because we all know he will be raised in a barn!

Cannon was introduced to his first bottle this week, courtesy of Daddy, and seemed to take it fine. This is the first step in weaning Mommy from feeding times. I think it is going to be harder to wean mommy then baby!
