I Found My Thumb!

Today, while Mommy was holding me, she looked down and I was sucking my thumb! I had put my hands near my mouth a few times in the past week or so, but today I had a purpose!! I sucked my thumb for a few minutes, took it out of my mouth for a minute or so, then put it back in for a while longer...it was yummy! Mommy sucked her thumb when she was little, and she and Daddy know that if I keep this up, they can stop running up to my crib at night to put my pacifier back in after I spit it out... With my thumb, I'll always be able to get it in my mouth myself!

Later that night while Mommy was nursing me before bed in my room, I kept switching back and forth between her and my thumb. I don't know if I'm a righty or a lefty yet because I was using both hands... I'm sure I'll have a preference sooner or later.
