Anton's Updates :: 11 weeks

  New Favorites: Bouncy Chair, Listening to dad play the guitar, blowing spit bubbles.
Eating:Pretty good, almost too good. He's become quite the snacker. I'm not complaining. He's a growing boy and I'm glad he enjoys nursing. We had to work really hard the first couple months to get to where we are now.
Sleeping: Still pretty inconsistent. He wakes up to eat quite a bit but goes back to sleep really easily. Some nights he only wakes twice and others he wakes several times. Naps are the new challenge. I've been working on getting him to sleep for longer periods during the day. He used to sleep two hour stretches no problem but is now taking little short 30-40 minute cat naps. At least he has transitioned to his co-sleeper which is where he sleeps at night too. It's nice to have him out of the rock n play, because I hear some littles have a hard time leaving that cozy nest.
Milestones: I'm noticing he fights sleep a lot less. He's starting to get more comfortable with transitions and routines during the day. He has a lot more fun happy baby time and less crying and sleeping time.
Mom and Dad: We are looking forward to our first road trip with Anton this weekend. 4.5 hours to Medford we go. We're hoping for some long naps from Anton with a stop in Eugene to eat. We have no idea how this will go. At least we have a new car to try it out in.
Activities: We went to book babies again this week. I think Anton truly enjoys it. They blow bubbles and sing songs and he just looks around wide eyed the whole time. I found this little 49ers jacket at goodwill over the summer. I had no idea they would be going to the super bowl. It's a bit big for the bon bon but he's going to rock it anyways. He looks like he's already cheering!
