A Very Namie Weekend

Namie flew in on Thursday for a 3 night visit and made it a fourth night due to the snowstorm in the northeast. Dayton was very happy she stayed another day.

Dayton is consistently sleeping thru the night (12 hours last night). After the car accident on Halloween he began waking up up to 5 times a night. He had always been a one-time-a-night kind of guy so this was a big change. I decided the best way to combat this was to stop feeding him in the middle of the night all together. How is he going to know which of the five times he was waking up was the one he would be getting fed? It was a less than a week when he began understanding that it was okay for him to fall back to sleep on his own when he woke up in the middle of the night.

He is sitting up on his own AND reaching/picking up objects while he is sitting. Pretty impressive! Also, last night he discovered that he can jump. He is jumping in his jumperoo and exersaucer and VERY excited about it.

Here are some pictures and video from a Very Namie Weekend.

  1. WOW - he is looking less like a baby and more like a little boy... and I can't get over how much you and your Mom sound and look alike! Especially in some pictures where you are each sitting with Dayton leaning over and smiling - you are just leaning different directions!

    Glad to hear that he is sleeping through the night! It is SO nice when that happens.

    blessings,
