The Crumb Family: Not much happening....

I just fed Brody and put him down for the night. He is making some noise, but hopefully will fall asleep in the next few minutes. He started to fall asleep when I was feeding him and he didn't take the whole bottle. When I went in there just a few minutes ago, his eyes were open so we will see! He is starting to eat 7 oz at his last feeding, and 6 oz the rest of his feedings. He seems to still get satisfied with the 6 oz during the day so I haven't switched him.

I think I am driving my Dad crazy. I call him like 6 times a day to check to see how Brody is doing and I have started to worry about him taking his naps in the swing (which is where he takes his morning nap at my parents house during the week). Those damn books I read and the internet make me crazy! I have to stop reading them. I keep saying it but I still continue to read them and drive myself insane! We are starting to put him in the crib for his afternoon nap (which he really hasn't done consistenly at my parents house since I started going back to work). My dad said that he was in there for about an hour and slept for 30 minutes. I guess we will do baby steps. I am worried about him outgrowing the swing. I think the maximum weight is 25 lbs., and I am sure he will be there soon! Last time he went to the doctor, which was a couple weeks ago, he weighed 16.8. He was fully clothed so I will give him a few ounces. But still, over 16 lbs. is alot for a 2 1/2 month old! I will be curious to see how much he weighs at his 4 month check up!

Brody has started getting a little irritation on his checks the last week or so. I think it was from him rubbing his face with his sleep gown. I stopped putting him those at night and it seems to be clearing up. I am also putting Aquaphor on it too! Hopefully, it will be completely gone in a few days!

We had Ethan this weekend and he is really starting to interact with Brody alot more. Brody was talking and laughing and Ethan got such a kick out of it! He seems to want to be around him more too. I am sure it will also get more fun once Brody starts sitting up, and playing. In the car, Ethan will get in the car, and as soon as Brody starts to fuss, Ethan is right over there, talking to him and trying to get him calmed down. He is a good big brother to Brody.....it is really cute! Here are a few pics I took the last couple of days! I had Brody in Ethan's bean bag chair and he was having fun!

Brody and Big Brother Ethan!
