What is really amazing is that tomorrow Ethan will be 4 months old.. Wow.. that happened fast, and yet the nights have been very very very long.
Many exciting things have been happening around here. This week Ethan rolled from his back to his front, but he only did it one time, so it may have been a fluke. He does get up on his side all the time now. And he can kinda wiggle himself around in different directions. He is finding his feet more and more and now loves to have them in the air. Everyday we get to see more and more of his personality.
This week we have been working on getting him to sleep in his crib. Up until now he has basically slept in his carseat almost all the time, but our doctors really encouraged us that we need to kick that habit. And somehow (by the grace of God) we have managed to not let him sleep in his carseat for almost a whole week. The first night he woke up every 2.5 hours, but last night he went about 3.5. At this rate I figure he'll be sleeping through the night at around.. 2 years old!! haha.. just kidding. I know that in time he will sleep through the night. Before we transitioned to the crib he was sleeping about 5 or 6 hours in a row most nights. And about once a week went 7 or 8.
He is definitely becoming a thumb sucker, and I think once he gets the hang of that he will sleep better. He goes looking for it at night and ends up just rolling from his side, to his back, and back and forth until he gets fussy and frustrated. Sometimes I can give him his paci and he will go back to sleep, but usually by this time he is hungry and just wants to eat.
Now for the best part.. Pictures!!
This is one of the most recent pictures.. he is really lifting his head great now. |
