Quick little update on Ty since its been so long. I really would update this thing more if I could actually put him down for naps but alas I cannot just yet so whatever. I just finished a book on sleep training babies. You can't start until they're 4 months old so we have a few more weeks of waking up every 45 minutes at night and not laying down to nap. I think I can make it I think I've gotten used to functioning on little sleep I forget everything and I'm not the most pleasant person all the time but hey, I try. Here's what Ty has been up to lately:
He is really good at rolling. The other day he rolled across the bed to get from one end to another. He doesn't like being on his belly very much but we have tummy time everyday for a litle while so he can practice scooting and work on his crawling posture. Its really not going to be long unti he starts crawling.
He has started teething. He is a drool monster and everything goes into his mouth to chew on. No teeth have been cut just yet but they're coming.
Ty has a bath every night and just a couple of days ago I removed the newborn insert that was in it so now he is more submerged in the water and he loves it. He splashes and plays with the rinsing cup for a long time before he wants to get out. I can't wait until he can sit up on his own and take a bath in the normal tub with toys.
I have heard him laugh one time and he sounded so much like me. However I haven't heard him do it anymore and he just squeals with excitement. Hopefully a big belly laugh will come anyday now. He laughs alot in his sleep. I wish I knew what he was dreaming!
He is very vocal. He will have a "conversation" with you pausing in his speak for you to say something and then responding. He is extremely animated with his eyebrows and facial expressions and he uses different tones and inflections in his voice as if her were actually talking. One of my favorite things that he does is he will just look at me and raise his eyebrows a couple of times.
He is now sleeping in his new crib at night. When we first put him in there he was sleeping 5 hour stretches so now I'm not sure what the deal is with the 45 minutes stretches but I'm sure *fingers crossed* its just a phase.
He HATES going in the car and screams at the top of his lungs the whole time we are driving. He tolerates it if I am able to ride back there with him and entertain him but since I can't afford a driver thats not often. He has started to put up a pretty good fight when I go to fasten him in his carseat. He thrusts his pelvis up and tries to keep me from locking him in.
He can hold himself up on the laundry basket standing up. Sometimes I think he is going to walk before he crawls because he prefers standing over everything else.
Thats about it he will be 16 weeks old this friday already! I can't believe hes already almost 4 months old. Oh yeah I almost forgot Ty "watched" his first UT game last weekend and of course was dressed for the occasion. UT won. Hook em horns!
