This was my first week taking care of Vincent by myself during the day. It went pretty smoothly for the most part. Vincent likes to be held a lot which he didn’t as much before. Now it seems when he falls asleep for a nap, i have to hold him for quite a while before i can put him down, otherwise he will start crying within a few minutes of putting him in his crib. I have learned to do a lot of things 1 handed! What i do need to learn is how to use my moby wrap (or get a new different one). I have looked at video tutorials but still can’t seem to figure it out.
Vincent uses his pacifier when he is fussy and wants to suck on something, but it always takes a few minutes of pushing it in his mouth for him to really take it. Here he is in his newborn PJs where were too big for him when he first arrived home, but now it seems a tiny bit too short for him. I cant believe he is already growing out of his clothes! *tear*
A particularly tough day was Wednesday when he was up very early in the morning, making his usual grunting sounds and just being awake. I didn’t get much sleep that night and i knew the house cleaners were coming that morning so i had to be up early to move out of their way. I was annoyed i couldn’t sleep-in but still thankful someone else was cleaning my house. They came at around 9am and were done and out of the house by noon, so afterward i went straight to bed and tried to put Vinny to sleep too so that i could take a nap but i swear he NEVER went to sleep! All day he stayed awake or only took 1/2 hour naps which is not enough time for me to fall asleep! *SIGH* And you would think he would sleep good that night, but no it was just average. So that was a trying day especially since Jeff didn’t come home for lunch (he works in Gilroy on Tuesdays and Wednesdays). But all the other days were pretty normal… in fact one night he slept 5.5 hours straight! And other nights he can sleep about 3.5 hours but only 1 stretch of that – he still can wake every 1.5 hours as well, he doesn’t seem to have a definitive pattern yet. But i think he will soon. At least one can hope…
Here is the lil’ stinker making some cute faces:
Here is a video of him on his boppy – trying to get him to exercise his head muscles! Listen to his sounds, its cute.
