Social Smiles, Reflux, and Working on a Sleep Schedule

August has been filled with more curve balls. His reflux has flared up a bit, which had been impacting his sleep, but fortunately he’s starting to settle into much better night stretches. His daily routine just varies with his mood. Sometimes he likes to sleep most of the day, some days he seems to want to stay awake until night time!

He's finding his voice with little coos and babbles, enjoying tummy time, and the social smiles are officially here and they're ADORABLE! Such a beautiful smile this kid has!

  • 🍼 Current Routine: Sleeping 3-4 hour stretches at night, wakes up for a snack then back to bed. Shorter naps most days, tummy time, flash cards, being a velcro baby.
  • 🎶 Favorite Thing: Staring at his best friends, Fan and Lamp!

The Journey Begins

July was definitely a wild ride for all three of us. Adjusting to our new lives with a baby, settling in at home, letting Alex meet as many people as possible, and making doctor's appointments definitely kept us busy. To no one's surprise, our sleep schedules were crazy and broken, but we survived—and everyone is happy, healthy, and excited for the future.
