Phinny's "birth" day

As we approach July 4, Phinny's 40th week birthday (and due date), I can tell you that he's doing great developmentally.

- He can focus on someone's face.
- He can lift his head and hold it upright for several seconds.
- He can track objects as they are moved in front of him.
- He coos and makes various vocalizations.
- He can almost roll over - meaning, he has done it once, not sure if I should count that or not.
- He can bring his hands together in front of him.
- He can suck on his hand to sooth himself.

The only thing he's kind of behind in (compared to full-term babies of his age) is laugh and smile. He smiles quite a bit, but it doesn't necessarily smile at someone or because of something - other than tickling his cheek. Sometimes he ACTS happy when I'm about to feed him (like he'll open his mouth, wave his arms breathe fast and heavy, almost like a hearty laugh) but no real laughing or smiling.

Kevin says that maybe he just doesn't think we're all that funny. :)
