Marcus’ camera has a “cartoon” setting, so we had some fun taking pictures with it. It’s interesting to see how the rosiness of Emrick’s cheeks shows up even in cartoon mode, especially in the third and fourth pics below. He’s sooo precious! And quite the laugher and squealer now, too!<\/p>\n

Emrick is still sleeping on Marcus’ homemade mattress w\/harness<\/a>. He’s been sleeping better than he has since early December, so it’s working great. I try to give him lots of tummy time during the day, so that he can perfect his rolling and maybe some day, if left to his own devices, he will NOT try to sleep on his face anymore. In the meantime, his mattress keeps him harnessed at the waist (the same way his Fisher Price rocker does) to keep him from rolling his face into the mattress. The restricted mobility makes him fall asleep much faster, and for a longer period, than when he is free ranging the crib. It’s like when we swaddled him, only now his arms are free. Even though we’re all sleeping well, I don’t want to have to keep it up with this homemade mattress thing for more than another month or so. It doesn’t seem good to let him be dependent on it. I mean, what if he still needs it when he’s 5? Or 16? Or 31? AAAHHHHHH!!! I’ll talk to the doctor about it at his 6 month check up, which is scheduled for March 22.<\/p>\n

Marcus is NOT sporting an Amish-style beard in reality! For some reason the cartoon setting really picked up on the shadows. It is nonetheless hilarious, though, as is that angelic glow in the background!<\/p><\/div>\n
