He finds his hands

For the past few weeks Owen has really been trying to get his fingers, mainly is right thumb, lined up with his mouth.  On Sunday he was making pretty good contact with his face, but missing his mouth and making some scratches on his skin.  He hasn't given up and has been on a mission to get his thumb in there.  On Monday he finally made contact and began sucking his thumb.  It's been great because he's sleeping really well at night now.  He's going 5-7 hours straight.  When he wakes up he's learned to self sooth on his hand and fingers.  I'm not too worried about him sucking his thumb. I know it wont last forever.

He's got it!

  1. Are you sure about that? I know someone who sucked their fingers all the way through high school. P.S. He looks so much like you right here.
