You wake up between 6:30 and 7:00am and you are such a morning person. I go over to your crib and you give me the biggest smile. I am not a morning person, but lately - I have become one because of you. You serious bring the biggest smile to my face each morning.
You nap during the day every 2 hours and I recently started putting you down in your crib every 2 hours. You seem to like that and having been putting yourself to sleep. Some days you fight it and I have to give in and put you in your swing…but that's ok. I'll pick my battles.
At night - you go to bed between 7 and 8pm. I normally nurse you for about 15 minutes before I go to bed (at 10pm) - then you wake at 1:00 and 4:00…still. I say still because I don't think you need one of those feedings - but we'll figure it out when we move into our new home... more about that later.
You drool more than Nate. Seriously…I have never seen anyone drool as much as you do. And those chunky little hands are always in your mouth. It's adorable…to me.
You can hold your head up and roll belly to back. You love laying on my floor while I massage your big chunky theighs.
You laugh…oh, do you laugh. Big belly laughs too. I haven't gotten many, but your big brother does. You think he's the funniest.
You love affection and need it. You want to be held 80% of the day when you are awake. You recently started to enjoy the jumper and you like tummy time…but if you had it your way, you'd be held ALL day long.
We won't go back to the Doctor until you are 4 months - and I actually look forward to that. I love seeing how you've grown and how you are thriving. We make such a good team, buddy. I'm proud of us.
