Colin Bennett: 25 Weeks

On 11/20/13 our little Beebs turned 25 weeks. Holy cow- so close to six months!

This was a big week of change for little man... a big move into Gram and Granddad's, no more daycare, C got baptized, his sleep has been way off, a tooth broke through and he started oatmeal and brown rice cereal.

Woah baby.

Weight: Granddad weight him this week- 17.2 lbs! Growing big and strong.

Health: Healthy little man. He wasn't feeling well due to his new tooth, however, otherwise he had a great week!

Social: C was baptized this week! We had a beautiful ceremony followed by a luncheon at my parents house for family. It was such a great day!

C also started being nannyed by "Mommy Kim". Mommy Kim is my best friend's Mom and one of my parents best friends. Growing up, we called each other's parents "Mommy___ and Daddy___" because we were so close. I'm so glad Mommy Kim is able to take care of our little man during our transition!

Sleep: Ha! What's that? Between all the changes, a new tooth and Daddy being away a few nights a week, C's sleep has been a mess. He hasn't slept through the night once since we moved. Before we made the move, he was sleeping 12 hours through the night. Sleep is my big focus this week. I can't bring him into my bed anymore... it's not good for anyone.

Diet: Mommy's milk and oatmeal/brown rice cereal! He loves the cereal

Clothes: 9 month pants and six month onesies

Baby Gear Love: He loves his bumbo seat and jumperoo a ton! He can sit up like a big boy and look all around.

Crying: At night when Mommy isn't right next to him. He has started to reach out to touch me just to make sure I'm there. While I love that he loves me so much and I have to admit, I love sleepy baby snuggles, I'm not getting ANY sleep. With a new job and big job responsibilities, no sleep isn't good for anyone.

Likes: Snuggling, peak-a-boo, singing songs and playing together with toys.
