Your 1st Christmas Eve

We hosted Christmas Eve at our house and everyone came over: Mamaw, Lester, Grandma, Aunt Jenny, Uncle Bobby, Gracie, Dylan, and Moses. We ate snack foods and opened presents. Of course you weren't into opening presents that much so big brother was happy to help! You got some sleeps and fun toys! After everyone left we put you boys to bed and awaited Santa's visit! We are so blessed to have you as a part of our family! Last Christmas you were just a little bean in my belly! You are loved so much by so many!

Roll Over Baby!

Yay! You just rolled over from your tummy to your back! You also did it a second time so daddy could see you. You are still working on rolling from your back to tummy, but you are super close! We are still working on getting you in your crib. The first night you slept for about an hour before crying. Daddy has been sick and told me he needed his sleep so back to the couch and cradle we went. Last night we tried again with a little more luck. You did wake up and cry off and on but managed to sleep in your crib until 4am. You napped for three hours in there today! I'm hoping tonight will be a true success!! You're growing up too fast! We love you so much!!

Moving to Your Crib

The first couple of months were full of sleepless nights and I felt like a zombie. You slept in your bassinet/sling thing next to me on the couch. Daddy's work was crazy so he needed his sleep and couldn't really help at night. By month three you started sleeping good...just in time for me to go back to work! You would go to bed when did between 9-10 pm and wake up around 5am. I would feed you before going to work. You would then go back to sleep until daddy took you to Gammy's. Well, the time has come to move you to your crib because you are getting too big for the cradle sleeper. It stinks because you sleep so well. Dax has been sleeping in mommy and daddy's bed so it is a night for both our boys to sleep in their own beds. I put you down at 9:30. You keep waking up crying though. We did buy you a humidifier and pillow. I went in there and burped you, changed your diaper and several times rubbed your head. It's now 11:30, hopefully you are ready to sleep for the rest of the night! Hang in there baby! Momma loves you and you can do this!!! It is so tough not giving in because I hate to see you cry and because I would love a good nights sleep! No pain, no gain, huh?
