Tobias is not even six weeks old and he is already turning into a couch potato. I guess he takes after him mom in that respect. I suspect his first words will be "where is the remote?"...

Last weekend we filled his play pen with toys. He didn't seem to care for it too much at first, he was just staring at them. But now he is looking at them and reaching out to them. I think he likes what we did to "his place". Oh, and that rug.... it really ties the room together :-)

Mommy took Tobias to her school this week. All the children really liked him. They wanted to touch him and hold him and pet him. I am curious to see if he is still this popular when he goes to school himself....

Hey, that's me feeding Tobias here. We did that for the first time yesterday (19/02/05) and it worked really well. He didn't seem to mind at all and neither do I! Maybe mommy does, because she is the one who has to pump her breasts now...

Tobias is getting better at controlling his muscles. His head movements are becoming more controlled. As you can see here he is able to hold his head up (and keep his eyes and mouth wide open...)

Tobias had a hard time getting started using his passfier, but today he got the hang of it. This is good for his parents too, especially for their pinky fingers...

This is Tobias in the arms of his second cousin Sabine. She looks quite the little mom, doesn't she? Although she states: "I think I will wait [being a mom (ed.)] until I have my own baby". Sabine came to visit (Feb 13) us with her mom Caroline and her grandmother Bets.
