Eleven Weeks

Mac is eleven weeks old today.  He is sleeping in his crib now and goes to bed very well for the most part.  He takes a few naps and eats five times each day on a pretty regular schedule.  We are so lucky!  He is happy most of the time unless he’s tired, hungry or [...]

Look What I Can Do!

Daddy was playing with me today, and he put a rattle in my hand. Look… I can hold on to it! I can’t really figure out how to grab it by myself yet, but I’m sure that will happen soon.

The Crib

Mac decided last week that as a 10-week-old, he no longer needed to sleep in the bassinet in Mommy & Daddy’s room.  He didn’t so much tell us as show us… I rocked him to sleep, and the second I put him down in the bassinet, he woke up - WIDE awake.  I let him [...]

Ten Weeks

Not too much has changed this week as Mac turns 10 weeks old.  Jeremy has worked a little more, and I have taken Mac out with me on errands more often.  Last week we even went to one of CJ’s baseball games and then out to dinner.  Yesterday we went to school for a [...]

Sleeping at Nine Weeks

Mac slept for what I would classify as “through the night” last night.  He fell asleep around 8:30 on Jeremy’s tummy, then he woke up to eat at 9:30.  Jeremy put him to bed by 10:30, and he slept until I woke him to eat at 6:00!  I would have let him keep sleeping, but [...]

Two Months

We didn’t get around to taking a comparative photo of Mac on his actual two-month birthday, but we did take a few shots at Convention Grill, so that will have to do! The activity of the day got away from us, and we didn’t want to interrupt his sleeping by the time we [...]

Family Visit

CJ was in his eighth grade play this past weekend, so my mom, dad and aunt Clare came to visit for the weekend and see the play.  Mac got to meet Papa and Great Aunt Clare for the first time!  We had a terrific weekend (after a bit of a cranky Friday).  We [...]

Eight Weeks

Already?! Here are some changes this week:
He’s already better about being put down during the day to nap, as long as he’s swaddled. I think it’s less of a change between being held and being in his crib. He does still like to nap in his swing too, which I’m [...]

Daycare

So, Mac had his first day at daycare today. I had a scheduled tech support call with Microsoft, so I didn’t think it would work to take him with me. There’s no picture for this post because, well, I wasn’t there.
It was surprisingly hard to leave him. It was [...]
