JWake is growing up and just becoming a little dude. This month he got his top two middle teeth giving him a grand total of six teeth and it makes him look so much older it cracks me up. It, obviously, caused his sleeping to suck so we had to finally let him cry it out at night. The first night he cried for about forty-five minutes before falling back asleep but since then anytime he wakes up he pretty much puts himself back to sleep within a few minutes so it's been pretty good. We still put him down at 8 and up for the day around 8 usually waking up a couple of times between then but I've stopped getting up as much at night with him. He did finally get his first cold this month (I didn't think he ever would since breast milk is magical) and it totally wrecked his sleeping until I got a cool mist humidifier and it's been awesome. Other things this month are:
Still in size 3 diapers and 12-18 month clothing.
Is able to sit up on his own although he will topple over once in awhile when he gets distracted by something on his left or right.
Has pretty much tolerated all solid food except peas and carrots. I use the word tolerated because I think he eats what little he does just to get me to stop singing (it's the only way he'll open his mouth) but doesn't seem to really love anything. He definitely likes bananas the best. I've also given him some Popsicles, pancakes, can pumpkin bread and he digs real food a lot more. He still nurses right before and right after each nap.
He is now down to two naps a day. Usually a two hour nap in the morning and an hour nap in the evening but he is a million times better about going to sleep at night than he is about naps. He has always gone right to sleep at night when I put him down.
Talks all day and loves the sound of his own voice. He is also super nimble at nights these days too.
Here are pictures of this month:
Thinking he's all rich with his twenty.
Terrible of me but this picture was too good since it caught his big ol' tongue sticking out. This is what he looks like when he just yells and yells to hear his own voice.
All bundled for one of our many morning runs.
Had to throw this in there. Nate finally bought a little fishing boat since the city is sucking the life out of us. Seriously, how to people live where there's stop lights long term? Can't. Freaking. Figure. It. Out. Anyway, we'll see if we ever get time to use it.
Yes, this is how messy our house gets everyday but you do what you have to to get by.
Stoked to be on Nate's shoulders. They do this constantly...
Loves playing on our bed.
Sitting up by himself, finally!
Jamming with dad. Him and all four of his chins lol jk.
