Pounding it...

Dear Nicky,

You're really starting to put away the grub. Mother's milk or formula, you don't seem to care which it is, as long as there's plenty of it. And, you know me, so you know it makes me happy when you eat. Also, very thoughtful on your part I might add, you let us know the very second you feel any hunger whatsoever. In fact, so far that's the only reason you've cried about anything--you want something to eat. And when you want it, you want it now. Mom and I are trying to work some tummy time into your schedule every day, but you cry a lot when we put you face down, and we don't yet have that necessary indifference to your cries to keep you there for any length of time. We'll eventually have to steel ourselves and do it, because it helps you develop your back and neck muscles, imperative for holding your own head up. Sorry in advance, kid.

Love,
Dad
