Fussy baby

LAst week was a little crazy in our house. Little Man was fussier than he's ever been and I didn't know what to do. I don't really know what caused it either. His nose was snuffley, his nostrils swollen shut. His gums didn't seem tender, but he preferred his softer newborn binkis, so teething is a possibility. He wasn't sleeping through the night. I was so tired and an emotional wreck. At my wits end I gave him a dose of baby Tylenol. He slept through the night and did much better the next day. As I said, I don't know what caused it. There's a conspicuous lack of teeth for it to be teething....

Overdue update

After sleeping through the night for over a month, Little Man has been waking up at three a.m. for the last week. I don't know what brought the change, though he has started sleeping more during the day. I have to admit while I like tue chance to release the pressure in mu boobs, I miss a full nights sleep.

For one blissful week, I thought we were finally getting a house big enough for us. After busting my butt all week to get the house ready for.the realtor to check it out, he gave us a number far too low to pay off our current house. So now we're stuck in q house too small for us. You can barely walk through my living room for the baby stuff. And this weekend I added a Bumbo and a new wiggle cave (though I will most likely put away his old one since he's gotten too big for it now) that I have no idea where they can go. I'm trying to get him enough clothes to make it.through the winter until garage sales next year, meaning through 12 month sizes. And I have no where to put it all. *frustrated sigh*

Other than that things are going well. He's still growing, almost out of all his 0-3 month sizes. He is fairly independent, spending a oot of his.time wiggling on his own. He has been very happy every morning, cooing, giggling and smiling. I love every moment of it. As much as I want to see him crawl and hear him speak, I want time to slow down so I can enjoy him as much as possible. Love my baby boy.
