This last week has been a super crazy one…I have so much going on and so much to do that blogging has fallen by the wayside. But, I’m back and I have some cool things to blog about.
On Monday, Asher rolled over for the first time! After I change his diaper I lay him on his tummy. This makes me remember to give him tummy time, otherwise I would never do it! On Monday after changing his diaper and laying him on his tummy I went to throw away the diaper and wash my hands. When I came back, Asher was on his back. Now, I know Brayden didn’t do it since he was with me. So I put Asher on his tummy again and sure enough! Within a few seconds he was back on his back. He did it again after that too so I know it wasn’t just a fluke! I was pretty stoked. He’s only 3 ½ months so I wasn’t expecting it since Brayden was almost 5 months when he first rolled over. But I hear the second one usually picks up on those things faster.
The other Milestone this week is we moved B to a big bed. Well, we’re still in the process, but we’re getting there! Tuesday night we put him in the big bed in his room instead of his crib. After an hour of him escaping and us putting him back in his bed, we finally called it a night and put him in his crib. The next night the same thing happened but last night…TaDa!!! He stayed in his room. He got off of his bed and ended up falling asleep by the door but he never came out of his room! I’m pretty excited about this. He’s still so young that we normally wouldn’t worry about moving him to a big bed yet…however, we need the crib for Asher. We still are putting B in the crib during naps but we’ll attack that next week…
Also this week, Brayden had a fever we *think* due to teething. He has had a rotten attitude and been in a foul mood all week. It has been a long, exhausting, very unproductive week for us. I’m really excited for him to learn to talk to us instead of screaming and yelling at us…constantly. During one of his many nap attempts this week (he doesn’t like sleeping anymore) he somehow managed to get out of his crib. It was the weirdest thing…his screaming never changed, I never heard him quiet down or stop even for a second. I never heard a thump of him hitting the ground or the box of toys I’m surprised he didn’t hit. But all the sudden he was opening his door and coming to me. I really wish I had video of how he did it! This being another incentive to move him to a big bed…this is his second time he’s gotten out, fortunately not getting hurt either time! The mattress is at its lowest and the railing at its highest so I don’t really know what else to do besides switch him out!
Asher is such a smiley baby still. He’s so content to just chill, but when we spend any attention on him he just smiles and laughs the entire time! He is such a sweet babe. I don’t even know what else to say about him!
Brayden is talking more. His new words this week are “apple” “cracker” and “cookie.”
It’s crazy how fast kids grow!!! I’m trying to enjoy it while they’re young, but I’ll definitely be grateful when Brayden is feeling better!
I haven’t updated since my cell phone incident but I finally did get a new cell phone! Yay! It’s nothing fancy…but a new phone nonetheless. I’m excited! It’s crazy how much cell phone technology has changed in 4 years!
