Wyatt's Five "Favorite" Things




How many brain surgeons does it take to change a dirty diaper?




Wyatt- 4 Weeks old.

Wyatt is 4 weeks old today. He is a growing boy for sure! His favorite four things are:

1. Eating- at least every 2.5 hours
2. Sleeping- he gets cranky when he can't go to sleep
3. Pooping- He also gets angry when he goes and we can't change him fast enough.
4. Burping- If there's a burp trapped- he's unhappy till it comes out.
5. Going for walks- if he's bored- he needs a quick change of scenery and will stare wide eyed at the outdoors while we walk. He'll usually fall asleep at the very end. This has become my go-to trick for extending his feedings.

Wyatt is a great baby. As long as he gets these five things in a timely fashion- he's a happy boy! He has a fussy spell from about 6-7:30 PM- and the passy becomes our best friend.

As for me- I'm recovering well and feel great as long as I can get at least 5 hours of sleep at night (intermittently of course) . I'm ready for longer sleeping spells- that's for sure- but I am thankful that Wyatt is a good eater and is healthy. I know I'm going to miss him being so little.

He has a little case of baby acne right now- but he's as cute as ever.

Byron has come down with something- so please pray that he doesn't give it to me or the baby. It makes me so nervous! We've been so protective of him going out in public and lo and behold- Byron gets sick. Hazards of his job. I've boiled all the passy's and bottle and wiped down all the surfaces in our house with Lysol. Hopefully- that'll stave off the transfer!
