Andrew turned five months old today. He is a champion sleeper at night – falls asleep by himself and only wakes up once during the night. His daytime naps are a little less predictable. He sleeps for a half hour at a time. four or five times during the day. We have introduced a few foods and Andrew is very slowly getting the hang of it. Here is Andrew enjoying some peas during a recent weekend visit from his Aunt Katie.
Below is a video of Andrew from early December, when he was about three months old, and video from this past weekend.
This past week Louis decided he was going to sleep in his “big kid” twin bed that we placed on the floor. He also decided he would let Andrew sleep in the crib. So in one day Louis went from sleeping in a crib to sleeping in a twin bed and sharing the room with his brother. We are shocked at how easy the transition was. Louis has woken up up once or twice at night but it hasn’t been too hard to get him to go back to sleep.
Louis also got a new pair of running shoes that he is really excited about. He was so excited that on the first night he insisted the shoes spend the night near his head. On the second night he insisted on sleeping in his shoes. We heard him wake up in the night and his shoes went running down the hallway. (I think he thought it was time to get up and we were in the kitchen or living room.) We put him back in bed, still wearing shoes.
Below are two recent videos of Louis. The first is from Christmas and the next is from last weekend when Katie was in town.
