We got a few of the cousins together this week for a little cousin love-
we are missing one Blodgett baby cousin (Mack)
we are missing one Blodgett baby cousin (Mack)
Cooper (5 weeks), Miles (3 1/2 months), Parker (4 weeks)
The mom's and their babies!I don't have much time to blog anymore, I'm lucky if I get lunch in during the day.
At 4 weeks old Parker is a sweet, cuddly, lovey little guy- and a happy baby.
He still loves his changing pad, bath time and hanging out where all the commotion is- he loves sound and noises and falls asleep the easiest when their is noise around.
I'm learning more and more each day how to decode my little babies personality.
He is generally happy unless he's hungry- or tired or bored
He is a great sleeper at night, he usually eats around 10 or 11 pm then wakes up around
2 or 3 am then again around 6 or 7 am.
After I feed him and cuddle him a little he goes right back to sleep-
the struggle we are working with is that he thinks since he sleeps so good at night that there is no need for him to nap during the day- he fights sleep during the day. And he just wants to be held.
Which I love to do except when I want to get laundry, dishes, blogging, or anything else that involves 2 hands done.
To help with this we went out and spent a good deal of $$ on a swing, which he liked at first, now he's in for 3 minutes then he gets angry that we thought we could trick him into thinking someone was swinging him when in fact it's just a dumb lump of plastic.
We have hope that in a month or so he will like his swing. If not, Parker will owe us some $$. :)
My biggest complaint (and something no one can control) is that Parker gets the hiccups ALL the time!! When he's not trying to sleep I don't mind- but he will get them while he's sleeping and they will wake him up! I don't think they bother him, but they sure bug me!
Being a mom is a fantastic adventure- every day I love it more and more!!

They are so cute I could just eat them up!! :)
What fun to have so many cousins the same age! They all look a bit concerned you left them by themselves on the sofa. Ha.
