past due.

Baby Davey is already 3 months and I haven't done a single post about just him. So here goes. He is such a great baby. At his 7 week appointment he was 11.5lbs and ??inches. He is a pretty good sleeper, only wakes up once or sometimes twice during the night and usually goes right back to sleep.

And now he's 4 months. How did everything get so crazy around here? He has been crawling around, well, he can get where he wants. I think I feel one of his bottom teeth coming in, and he is a crazy drooler sometimes and chews on everything. He is a pretty good sleeper, kind of. Still wakes up twice a night but it's ok as long as he goes right back to bed. Takes about 2, 2 hour naps a day, sometimes three and goes to bed around 6:30 to 7:30 and wakes up around 5:30 to 7:00. Early mornings around here but it's nice to be able to have some time with just Tuck in the evening and hands free to get dinner ready. Davey is pretty happy in the mornings and after naps. Wakes up so nice. Just gave him a bit of rice cereal because he seems like he is starving sometimes and I just can't keep up with him. He is loving this little bouncy thing we have for him so that's a good 10 minutes of play. He loves to follow his brother around, who sometimes loves it and sometimes not so much. He's starting to love being thrown up in the air, and loves seeing himself in the mirror, and loves being played with. He can grab his toes and tries to suck on them. much more flexible than Tucker ever was, but that's not saying much. Trying to rub his cradle cap off I just took off a stripe of his hair on the top, which is coming in pretty blond. He hates being on his back and when you try to change his diaper he is constantly arching and trying to roll away. He does that in the stroller now and when you try to get him in the car seat, which he also does not like very much at all. He's getting pretty good at sucking his thumb and it works like magic when he does. He can sit ok in the bumbo and loves to walk around outside with me and watch the kids play. He mostly loves the ocean and we are all pretty much in love with him.

And now he's 5 months, almost 6. And he's crawling around no problem. Doug and I found him yesterday in his crib standing up, now he is pulling himself up on everything. He's a pretty strong little guy. And he can take it from Tucker most of the time. Tuck is so cute with him, when the mood strikes him. He goes up next to him and lays down and puts his arm around him. I love it. And he's also loving cheering him on while Davey's trying to crawl or climb on something. Still working on letting the him touch his little bed or bucket of cars but we're getting there, slowly but surely. Davey is about 15lbs I think. He's pretty smiley and is in a pretty good mood lately. He started eating rice cereal and pizza crust and a few bananas and apples and pears and he's done great with everything. He has only been sick twice so far, and both times a runny/stuffy green nose, but no fever still. He is really just night and day of Tuck and for that I'm grateful. He wakes up so happy, you'll come in to find him just kicking or now pulling up with a big smile when he sees you. He will even just play around in his crib for a bit before falling asleep not freaking out. This is all new and amazing to me. He's still taking about 2 naps a day, and doesn't really sleep anywhere but his crib. He doesn't fall asleep on me ever. Except at night when I'm feeding him before bed. It's my favorite time with him. He's so relaxed and we get to cuddle together while he falls asleep. He's still waking up 2-3 times a night and gets up with Tuck around 6:30 for the day. When will I ever get a late sleeper?! We are loving this new addition and his amazing smile.
