Here are some highlights from our third week together:
-Mimi spent the first of your third week with us (Thursday to Tuesday) and Papa Fred came for the weekend;
-more periods of wakefulness;
-likes to be held;
-likes to be held by MOMMY;
-no longer having long stretch of sleep in morning;
-looking bigger/different;
-tummy time---turns head to one side to clear airway. I haven't observed turning head to both sides while on belly yet;
-Wednesday we decorated the tree while you slept in the swing nearby;
--Friday home with Mommy and Mikey by ourselves for the whole day! We did it!;
--You are more HUNGRY now. You like to eat every 2.5 hours during the day. You can go for one three hour stretch at night but otherwise you are up every 2ish hours. Some nights are better than others in terms of sleeping---you either go right back to sleep or engage in a staring contest with Daddy or I and cry when you are put down. This results in one of us coming downstairs and sleeping in the living room. You eventually fall asleep and stay asleep in the pack 'n play.
Mommy, Daddy and Mikey went to Volante Farms in Needham to get our Christmas tree while Nicholas stayed home with Mimi and Papa Fred
Daddy and Mikey came home early from work/daycare so we could decorate the tree together as a family
Mimi brought LOTS of fun activities to do with Mikey---decorating cookies, window stickers, filled and hung a bird feeder were just a few!
Mikey is getting the hang of this "big brother" role. He asks to hold the baby and loves to give him his pacifier.
And now we are ready to celebrate Christmas with our two most amazing gifts.....
our children.
