Noah's Room

We moved Noah out of our room into his room on Easter as well. It had been 15 weeks in our room. We mostly kept him in there so long because he woke up so much at night. We were down to 2 wakings a night, once to feed and once early in the morning, but lately he is waking a little bit more. It was actually harder on me that first night than it was for Noah. I thought I would be totally ok with it, but I guess I miss having him near me. I will get over it, just like I did with Ava and I will now be able to watch TV at night or talk in a normal voice with Mike...

Here is Noah's Nursery....



That is Noah's swing. It is our savior. I just hope he doesn't outgrow it before he learns how to sleep.

 He also slept in his room for his 2nd nap of the day on Easter. He did what he usually does, sleep 30 minutes and then I put him in the swing. I gotta stop doing that. Usually the first nap I will try to get him to go back to sleep and the 2nd nap will be half in the crib in half in the swing. That night he woke up 4 times. Once about 45 minutes after I put him down, once to eat, once at 2:30 and then again at 4:45, in which I put him in the swing until 6am.

When I put him down after his bottle, he talks himself back to sleep.It is the cutest thing. It makes me wonder why he can't do that other times he wakes up.

Speaking of talking, he is talking so much more now. If you make his cooing noise, he mimics you back. 

He has started to hold onto things, his spit up rag or a toy and really look at it. He also likes to put his hand on his bottle. I am hoping he learns how to hold his bottle earlier than Ava did. It will free me up a bit more because he is a lollygagger when it comes to eating. It takes him about 25-30 minutes to eat a 6 oz bottle.
