Grayson is 1 month old today! We can't believe it! But as Rob says-we've had him for 4 weeks and we haven't done any major damage-so that's always good. Things are still going great-he amazes us on a regular basis. He's started cooing and making some other noises-which puts a big smile on my face. He loves his tummy time and he likes to lay on his back and kick, gurgle, make noises and play with his pups. Tubs and Addy are doing fantastic with him-they don't like it when we leave for the day without them-it's too cute.
The past 3 nights from about 7:30-9:00 Grayson will cry and cry. We haven't figured out why just yet. We think he's maybe trying to poop-but he's not constipated because he's fine during the day. Maybe it's just gas? So we give him gas drops. That lasts for about 10 mins and then all of a sudden he'll pull his legs up and just scream. Any ideas? Supermom (Katie)-you have any ideas?
Nothing else really new going on. Rob and I are doing great-Rob's still trying to adjust to his 4 AM feeding. I'm still getting used to doing things on Grayson's schedule-not on mine. But it's still loads of fun! Here's some pictures for you to enjoy!
Tubby LOVES his little brother. He has to nap with him every morning-otherwise he gets a little cranky
This is how I found him the other day in his crib. He broke free of his swaddle
Aunt Sara laughs at this picture...it's a pretty good close-up! His cheeks are starting to fill out
Have a great week and Happy St. Patrick's Day!

About the crying...all of my boys seemed to do this in the evening until they were about 8 weeks old. I think it's just a combo of being tired from the day/overstimulation and digesting food/gas. I just usually bounced them or rocked them or put them in the swing to calm them down. When nothing worked, we just prayed for them to fall asleep. This phase will pass.
Love, Supermom
I agree. Kiera is doing the same thing. Our pediatrician said babies start their fussy phase at 4 to 6 weeks. Looking forward to when she grows out of it. Kiera likes to be walked around or cuddled up really tight or both! Good Luck!
