Well, we had a rough week. The last three weeks James has been gone almost all day for most of the week, last week being the worst. So, I have done a lot more caring for Landon by myself and my body just hurts... all the time. Sometime in the middle of last week, Landon decided to go from waking up once a night back to every 1 1/2 to 2 hours. It's killing me. You know how they say it is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all? Well, it is better to never sleep through the night after having a baby than to taste the bliss of a full nights sleep and have it taken away from you never to know when you will have it again. : )
BUT, Landon has reached a bunch of milestones again in the last week. Still teething and no teeth. He is now paying attention to other babies. He is now interested in the toys that I put in front of him on the floor for tummy time and he tried to get them. This morning he rolled/scooted all over his blanket. Interesting that he kept himself from going onto the carpet and just changed directions to stay on his blanket...
Last night we were saying prayer on dinner and I couldn't help myself and peeked at him. He had THE BIGGEST grin on his face watching his dad say the prayer. Then he looked at me and I swear he just knew that I wasn't supposed to have my eyes open. So hilarious!
He is growing like crazy!!! Today I compared him to our tv stand. He is the same height standing which is 24 inches. He is slightly longer when he is all stretched out. We'll see what they say at his next appt in two weeks. He is eating a ton, I might have to start him on cereal soon... We shall see, maybe it is just another growth spurt. Our scale at home measures him at 14lbs...

Everything is harder when they aren't sleeping. Hang in there!
