*since we've been back, Dean has transitioned to a runny nose and cough. Tuesday it was even sounding "bark-like" and I was really worried. I resolved to call the Dr in the am (I had already emailed her Monday, the poor lady is probably sick of me so I try and wait as long as I can stand). Wednesday morning Dean was coughing even more, but it sounded more phlegmy rather than barking, so I hope that was a good sign-just getting everything out. I suction his nose like ever hour in the mornings. He seems a little clingy at times but overall, he is happy and doing well otherwise. We had to get him saline drops so he could breathe and suck his pacifier to sleep haha.
*He also took great naps Monday and Tuesday! Mon was two 1 hr 40 min! Tues was same thing at even the same time in the am. Then afternoon we weren't home so it was only 45 min in my arms but still good. Wednesday he did the same thing in the am and then I can't remember the afternoon. Thursday, he took a bit longer to fall asleep and then, because I decided to lay down and try to nap, he only slept like 30 min. Haha. Figures. And then the afternoon nap didn't really work out at all either. Friday though, back to 2 naps, 10ish and 3ish. Both 1 40! Then today, sat, he's just finished his 1 30 min nap at 10ish!!! I really pray this is a routine for him! (Only to be destroyed by 9am church tomorrow? Haha). Night time is still the same as usual. As long as it's not the hourly thing anymore!
*he's discovered the "n" sound. Nananana. I love as he adds new sounds. *when playing with his elephant that blows the balls up, he works hard to grab the ball when its floating. When he finally succeeds he says something that sounds just like he is saying "I got it!" Haha.
*he does the brrrrrr/motor sound again and sometimes he does it with no voice, only breath and it sounds like he's purring.
*he got a jumper to hang in the door way. But he doesn't really get it haha. He just walks around from each side of the door frame, essentially in circles. I then realized he's always moving ans kicking but he's never once jumped. Most babies jump in your lap but he never has. I guess he's a kicker and runner. Haha.
*he's learned that in order for something to go in his mouth, he has to spit his pacifier out. It's quite adorable when he does. You can now tell when he plans to put something in his mouth haha.
*he has started "talking" in his sleep. It's more of his long sigh/singing sound. It's also adorable.
*dean got his highchair! He likes it and it was fun to finally let him just have free reign. He had fun eating banana in long way slices.
*he's crawling all over the house! I put him way in the living room with his toys and he made it all the way to me in the back bathroom. I wasn't even talking either!
*he likes to take the hand towels off the oven ans then screech at his reflection. It's so cute. He also always sees this one screw in the z-bar (apparently that's what KR says its called-its the strip between the carpet and linoleum) that he always finds and tries to pick up. Luckily its under the cupboard so he can't fall or step on it.
*he got to wear his new winter jacket!
*he also had some play dates with Reagan of course (Emily and I get together several times a week to work out)
*we also got together with Ruby and Vera (and I with Katie and Shelly)!
*we had dinner at a Mexican restaurant with KRs family on Friday night. Yummmm!! Dean had fun in the high chair (with his cover on of course)
*he also has started nodding his head! It's usually accompanied with his mouth opening and closing. Haha. It's hilarious.
