Wesley Update

I took Wesley to the doctor this morning for his six-month check up. It's amazing that I was able to wake up for that seeing as how he kept me up ALL NIGHT! Little monkey. Last night was also the first night of Nick's 3 weeks of midnights so I was on my own. Hopefully tonight goes better.

Wesley weighed 16 lbs, up 2 lbs from his four-month check up. The doctor was very pleased with that. He doesn't think the sleeping trouble is a reflux problem, which can be the case with some babies so we just have to keep fighting through. He got two shots again, one in each leg and he barely cried at all. Everything seems to be right on track. He is still 25 inches and our car seat is good for up to 26 so we should be able to squeeze in a few more weeks until the weather warms up.

Last night was really the only bad night we've had recently. On Saturday night Nick and I were even able to go out for dinner with friends. I put both kids to bed around 8:00, we had reservations for 8:30, the babysitter arrived at 8:15 and we left without the kids having any idea that we were gone. Both kids stayed asleep the whole time we were gone and we had a great night out. We'll have to do that again sometime. We figured that we hadn't been out in Windsor without either kid in over 2 years! That's pretty sad. We've gone out when we've been visiting grandparents but not at home. We're going to have to work on that.

How do you get the kids to sleep so fast? It takes at least a good half an hour to get Matthew's bedtime routine in.....lol
