Hello World, I'm Awake!

Well, we have had a busy week! Logan is no longer a new-to-the-world Sleepyhead. He is awake much more. Along with this "awakeness" however, has come a little fussyness (smile). We are working to figure him out...his routine...and his cries. Overall, he is still a pretty easy baby - consolable, but not always predictable- which keeps mommy on her toes. When I think to myself "I'll get that done next time he naps..." I find that he decides not to nap soundly, but would rather cry and whine and want to be held all afternoon. He is doing very well at night though- we wrap him up like a glow worm and he sleeps straight through between feeds in his pack-n-play.

I am in awe of him - how he doesn't even look like a "baby," but rather like a little boy in a tiny body. It's so cute! I continuously snap pictures to try and capture what he looks like each day because I feel like he is changing so much, so fast! I'm posting some random pictures (possibly a little redundant) from the past weeks...hope you think they are as fun as I do. :)

Logan is 3 weeks old!

He likes to sleep curled up, sort-of on his stomach...so when he is napping and I can monitor him, I lay him across his Boppy. This is what he did with his hands the other day!!

One night Logan was especially fussy and would not let us sit down with him - he wanted to walk and walk...so Marc pulled out the Baby Bjorn (spelling?) and walked hands-free until Logan conked out. Success!!

Logan doesn't sleep in the swing at night, but we sometimes get him geared up for night-time if he is awake a lot during the day. We swaddle him to get him into a sound sleep for the night...

This is Logan waking up one day after a nap...He has the perfect little milk-tongue!

I'm using these enviro-friendly, biodegradable (and FLUSHABLE) diapers. So far, they aren't too bad but they do require a little more work (assembly, sort-of). Marc likes the traditional diapers so we actually do a little of both (that's the only way to ensure that he continues to participate in the Output management - I am in charge of Input, he is in charge of Output when he is home...kind of a nice set up).

Yawn!

Napping in mommy's lap...
