The Fam

In other news, Zayne is the proud owner of his very first tooth today!

The boy has now slept through the night two nights in a row!

He’s also figured out how to roll over onto his back. He kind of looks like a Weeble - put him on his back, and he sort of pops over to being on his stomach. He hasn’t figured out yet what he can do while he’s on his stomach, so he usually gets mad and starts hollering. It’s kind of funny - “What’s the baby upset about?” “Oh, it must be time to flip him over again.”

We managed to get finally get our hands on an Amby Baby Hammock. One of our neighbors on the street had just finished using theirs and were happy to let it go for a reduced price.

I’m not sure what the little guy thinks of it yet. We put him in it and gave him some time to thrash around. It didn’t seem to bother him, but he didn’t seem too eager to get to sleep, either.

One thing that did seem to work well was to swaddle him before putting him in the hammock. So far, it hasn’t been too bad. He’s slept in it for a while now. His reflux hasn’t been too bad lately, so I don’t know how well it will work. Time will tell!
