Guess Who's Taller?

I'm kicking myself, but I somehow failed to take a picture of the Blueberry seated in his car seat until now. Thus, I don't have a "before" shot to show you. However, I was taken aback when we placed him in his car seat this morning and saw this:

See how high up his head is? When we first brought him home, and for at least the first month or so, his head only reached about halfway up the little headrest. Amazing!

Also, if you're keeping track...at last night's weigh-in, the Blueberry tipped the scales at 9 pounds, 13 ounces!!! After growing so sluggishly during the first three weeks, I am absolutely thrilled.

He's also sleeping, at least for naps, in his bassinet. This is a huge step towards getting him to sleep in his crib. As you know, the week or so after we brought him home from the hospital he abruptly refused to sleep in the bassinet--mainly he was too hot and/or the startle reflex would keep him from being comfortable. Now look at him...

At the time of this posting, he's been sleeping peacefully for about an hour and a half!
