Here is some of what's been going on with us...
Lawson had to go back to the pediatrician the first week of February because he stopped sleeping AGAIN. We suspected it was his reflux, but wanted to rule out anything else like an ear infection. Perfectly healthy- except the reflux! The pediatrician increased his dosage of Prevacid, and he has seemed much better since. He still has rough days, but overall he is a happy baby and we are looking forward to when he grows out of this reflux (between 6-9 months of age).
Our sweet friends Ashley and Luke welcomed baby Lane into the world on February 13th. He is precious and we can't wait for the boys to grow up together! Holding tiny Lane made me miss Lawson as a tiny baby, but I am loving this stage so much! He is so fun and so interactive, and I'm trying to cherish every minute with him so that I don't miss anything!
Lawson's first Valentines Day!!
Lawson had his DOC band check up (they are weekly) on February 15th, and his therapist said he is AT LEAST HALFWAY DONE! That means only 2-4 more weeks! His head is looking awesome so far! We are very pleased with the progress. I will definitely be doing a post with final results after we get the photos.
No one really tells you this when you become a mother, but one of the BEST parts of motherhood is watching Chris and Lawson interact. It makes my heart want to burst seeing them play together and seeing how much they love each other. Here is a sweet picture of the two of them. Lawson was in his own bed perfectly fine, and I was getting ready for bed and when I came out of the bathroom, this is what I saw. Melt. My. Heart. Chris hadn't gotten to see him that day because of school, so he got him out and loved him for a bit!
Lawson sits on his own!!!
Lawson is doing great with solids now. He has tried peas, rice cereal (HATED both), banana (LOVED), apples, squash, zucchini, sweet potato, pears, oatmeal, and avocado. He likes everything except the peas and cereal. He spit them both out, like ALL the way out, until there wasn't a morsel left in his mouth, ha! He is a great eater though and has gotten the hang of it quickly! He eats three meals a day now, and that has really helped with a schedule.
Here he is eating a "nana."
Here he is "helping" Mommy take pictures with the phone!
Dakota is still as sassy as ever, and loves helping with her baby brother. She only doesn't want him around when he stinks, haha!
My mom made a playroom for the kids at their house, so Dakota is loving spending time over there, and of course she loves hanging out with the "boys" at her other grandparents' house too playing bounce houses and racing cars! :)
Lawson is a rolling machine, and he "scoots" everywhere now! He definitely can't be trusted to stay in one spot. :) He doesn't really look close to crawling, and that's totally ok with his daddy and I. We aren't ready for that I don't think!
Oh, and on a side note...can anyone believe that my baby boy will be SIX months old in a few weeks. I don't think I'm ready to have a baby closer to one year old than to birth! YIKES!
