I fussed for much of the night, which caused Mom and Dad to keep getting up giving me a pacifier, and turning on my rainforest noises. Finally Dad woke up, took a shower, and fed me (in bed, next to Mom, so as not to wake up Aunt Claire and Maddi). Dad put me back in bed, but of course (like Dad), once I’m up, I’m up for the morning.
Mom got up and played with me on the floor of the bedroom while she pumped. I fell asleep (without eating again!) around 6:30 and I slept for quite a while, until 9:00 (so late that it caused Mom to miss yoga!) and ate.
While my sleeping improved — for the second time in the last few days, I consolidated all of my daytime sleep into three naps — my spitup reverted. I went through three outfits today.
Around 3:00, Mom and I went to the park. I was in a really good mood and played with Maddi and Aunt Claire (on their way back from Little India) until I got pissed and fell asleep in Mom’s arms (without being rocked or swaddled — pretty rare!). We got home (and ate) just before Dad got home. I took a nap until around 7:00. Dad was so excited to get me out of the bassinet. Mom and Dad were in the middle of dinner, so I sat in Dad’s lap while they finished. Then Dad and I played on my blanket for quite a while.
For the first time ever, I grabbed one of my toys with two hands and moved it. Mom and Dad were pretty excited. Dad also started getting pretty aggressive about trying to make me use my arms to support the weight of my upper body (and ginormous head). Mom actually thought it was a good idea — which is pretty rare. I ate again and fell asleep around 9:30.
