Life Saver - Nap Nanny

We had the hardest time getting Samuel to sleep because he has acid reflux and laying on his back would make it worse. The only way he would sleep at all at night was on me or in his car seat. I hated having him sleep in the car seat it looked so uncomfortable and he'd be all scrunched up.

Then I found the nap nanny and it really has been a life saver it's like a bed/car seat hybrid and it works great to get Samuel to sleep at night for 6 hours and only waking up once to nurse. Our plan starting this weekend is to put the nap nanny in Samuel's crib and see if we can get him to sleep in his own room. I honestly think this is going to be harder on me then it is going to be on him.

Christmas Elf

He really didn't want to wear the hat and so he wouldn't smile

but then daddy came along with his funny faces....

and he just couldn't help himself

This picture I'm not so sure what he's doing. It looks like this little elf might have had to much to drink at the Christmas party

Monkey Suit and smiles

ok maybe not a monkey suit but his outfit does have monkeys on it and he does look pretty cute. I was trying so hard to get him to smile for me and unlike daddy I have to work hard to get him to smile but he does like talking at me (cooing that is)

You want me to smile? Not so sure about that

How about we just talk a bit instead?

Well maybe if you keep making that silly face.


Ok mama you win!

Santa

Samuel's first picture with Santa Claus, poor Sammy was frozen by Santa and kept looking for me but lucky for us Santa was so very sweet

Even more to be thankful for on Thanksgiving

We have so much to be thankful for and the main one is our beautiful baby boy who is now 2 months old!

We went to grandmas this year and it was there that Samuel decided to entertain the family with a new trick, smiling, cooing and laughing. Is there a more adorable sight then a smiling baby.

Playing

Samuel is starting to really notice things around him and is looking at everything and so we pulled out the play mat and he loved it for about 5 seconds then he just wanted to be held which is fine by me since I love holding him.






Rock Star Hair

Samuel's hair has a life of it's own and I love it! But not as much as I love that smile of his...


Baby it's cold outside

It really is getting cold here in the Evergreen State and so with the cold weather comes a fluffy cute hat for my little man...

Football season

Watching football with daddy!


Faces

Just some of the many interesting faces of Samuel William Weigert... (ignore the VERY tired daddy in the background)



Fighting off sleep

Now that Samuel is noticing things around him he's been a bit harder to get to sleep because he keeps trying to fight it because he doesn't want to miss out on anything. This is his face when he's tired but doesn't want to sleep.

Cuddle Bug


Halloween 09

So many cute costumes out there but with Samuel not even 2 months old yet we decided to skip the elaborate costumes and stick with comfort but he does make one cute skeleton.



Sweet Dreams

Samuel's newest thing is sleep smiling. He'll be completely asleep and if I whisper "I love you always and forever" he smiles in his sleep. I'm pretty sure it's because he remembers me telling him that everyday when I was pregnant with him.

I can't remember what life was like before he came along but I am sure it wasn't as great as it is now.

Hmmmmm.....

Where have I seen this pose before?

Looks like we've got another Bruce Lee fan in the house
