Tummy Time and Duck Tails

Tummy time is hard. Michael Blake usually tries some form of planking when he's on his stomach and it tends to make him puke. Then his head gets too tired so his nose ends up in said puke. A few weeks ago I made a discovery that has benefited us both. Michael gets more enjoyable tummy time with minimal puke and Michael getting tummy time makes me feel like I'm not a complete failure of a mother. Enter the nursing pillow. I don't think I've ever used this little doughnut (yum, that sounds really good right now) for its actual purpose. So at our house it's the tummy-time pillow. 

Michael making faces on his doughnut. In other news, he has started sucking on his tongue and it's the most darling thing in the world. It just kills me.

Here I am thinking I'm the greatest. Apparently Michael had other adjectives going through his mind. Doesn't it kind of look like he just gave up on life? "This is way too hard, mom." 

Also, this little tinsy duck tail is a regular siting. He has rubbed most of the hair off, but the little mullet patch he has managed to hold on to makes the most adorable bed head.
