December
Since I haven’t written a post this month…
It’s been an unusually warm December which has been great for walks. We even took several evening walks around the neighborhood to look at all the lights. I took of the last two weeks of the month and Owen and I have been having a great time together. It was raining the other day and the three of us checked out the new indoor playground just down the street. This kid has unlimited energy.
Christmas was a lot of fun. He loves socializing with everyone. He’s definitely still happiest when we have company. He’s the life of the party! Food was good too. Even Owen ate my kale!
I’ve been working on night weaning him. Going with Jay Gordon’s method, but going a little slower between the first two steps to stretch out the time between feedings instead of cutting them out completely. He’s been eating a lot at night, so I don’t want to move too fast. So far, so good. The first night was a little rough, I caved in and nursed him really fast, but since then, he’s settled with minimal comforting and fallen back asleep. On my chest or my head, but I’ll take it.
