One Month

 

One month old! The month has gone like a flash. As a third child Will has been drug around everywhere. We are never home...this is not the type of maternity leave where you stay at home and relax. Three days a week we are out of the house by 7:30 so Will can help me drop the girls at daycare. He is a regular at Hy-Vee, Costco, and Target. He's been to Evy's gymnastics class, the zoo, out to lunch several times, my dentist appointment, and even been to a retirement party at my office. He likes to be on the move so he is great at running errands. As long as he is in the car, a stroller, or a shopping cart he is content. We're still working through some tummy issues (or maybe a little Colic). After eating he's extremely fussy and has to be soothed with a pacifier and has to be moving. Each evening from about 6 to 10 p.m. he requires constant assistance (pacifier, rocking, walking, bouncing etc). He has been sleeping in his crib for the past 3 nights, eating at 11 p.m., 2 a.m. and 5 a.m. I would love to push that 5 a.m. feeding to 6:30 or later since his sisters are awake at 6:30...hopefully we will get there soon! Love this little man!
