Week 14


Naps are getting better. He's taking 3-4 naps a day, some are only 45 minutes, and some have been almost 2 hours. Also, he is technically "sleeping through the night" since he sleeps from about 8pm until 2am (and a 6-hour stretch is considered "sleeping through the night"), but unless I go to bed at 8pm too, I'm still not getting great sleep. After the 2am wake-up, he sometimes also wakes up at 4am and almost always around 6am, when Phil then brings him into bed with me and we snooze/cuddle until about 7:30am. I have moved on to reading the "Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child" book, and also finding lots of good info in there. Most of all, I'm learning that healthy sleep is vital to his development and good naps are so important that I can't just drag him along throughout my day anymore. Which means I'm home more, but this will be good once I start working from home anyway. (Actually did some freelance work for Gravity this week already!)

Hayden is able to roll from his tummy to his back. He's done it a few times and I even caught it on video!

He is teething big-time! I think I feel and see the tip of a tooth poking through on his lower right. But it's not the middle teeth, which usually come first, and it's coming out in the front of the gum instead of on top, so I'm a little concerned about it. (I think there's always something I can be concerned about!)

We got a cool new product called a Bumbo Seat. Hayden likes to join us at the table for dinner now. :)

I'm really loving our PEPS group. Check out these adorable babies! Hayden is the chill dude on the far right:
