this is going to be quick



because this girl has got to get focused and back to work. wanted to take a minute though to post updates about the davidson clan. here we go:
  • miles is getting huge, he goes for a 4 month check up next week so we'll see how much he weighs, my guess is 17 or so pounds.
  • he is going to bed, unswaddled i might add, at around 8:30. he seems SOOO tired when we put him to bed but he is somehow waking up. i think he's still getting used to not have his arms stuck to his sides in the swaddle. last night he woke up at 1 and at 4.
  • teaching a baby how to sleep is "the pits" as my grandma used to say. we sometimes have the willpower to let him cry it out. it is pure torture but we are doing it not out of frustration with him, but so that he learns that he can do it on his own and doesn't need to be rocked. hopefully not too much longer of this.
  • ben and i go to bed EARLY. and by early i mean as soon as we can get our teeth brushed, our golden oreos eaten, and the bottles ready for the night. therefore, we are usually in bed by 9:30 at the latest. one night this week, we were in bed watching tv and this is how our conversation went: ben: "goodnight", me: "goodnight", ben: "and goodnight means I love you and don't talk to me anymore tonight." hahaha. he better be glad i have a sense of humor. we have to take advantage of our own sleep when mr. miles is catching his z's.
that's it for today. oh and happy birthday jonathan!!!
