13 Weeks

Still no camera cable. Sorry guys. Will try and get one either tomorrow or Thursday I hope. But we finally have our internet back on.

Justace is 13 weeks old now. He rolled over onto his back from his tummy for the first time today! I was so excited and happy I took him off tummy time completely for the afternoon and took him for a nice long walk in his stroller. He's been holding his head up during tummy time for 5 or 6 minutes at a time to look around. When he's not cranky I love making him laugh. It's makes me laugh. He's starting using his mouth to get to know everything from his lovey bear to his bath towels to his blanket. He puts everything in his mouth now and sucks on it. He usually sleeps through the night although lately he's started sometimes waking up again at 2am and not going back to sleep until 4am which drives me crazy a little. I don't see any teeth coming in and he seems too young for that now but I wonder if he might be starting to teeth? He drools an awful lot now and sucks on things a whole lot too. I may need to start using his teething ring and maybe even give him some teething medicine Shay gave me. But first I'll ask the doctor if he thinks he even is teething yet. Next doc appointment is in about 3 weeks or so.

I was so happy when he started sleeping through the night but now that he's back to waking up again I get so upset. I'm not a night person and I don't function well if I lose sleep. So I end up really really tired and frustrated. Last night I was too angry and frustrated to deal with him so I put him in his car seat and circled the block about 3 times and then left him in the car seat to sleep the rest of the morning...in the house of course. I'm not a very good mommy at 2 in the morning I'll admit. I stopped taking naps during the day because I used his nap time to get things done around the house but I may go back to taking afternoon naps again until he starts sleeping through the night again. I also might start going to bed at 8 every night and asking Josh to wake the baby at 10 for his last night feeding since he always stays up late anyway.
