he smiled at me this morning!!!!!! several times!!!! he still looks confused and alarmed immediately after smiling lol but he’s definitely figuring out how to do it. and his little expressive face looks so joyful when he manages it 😭😭😭 gosh I love my little baby so much. ALSO I don’t want to jinx it but he has now slept through the night for a full week (8:30pm-7am). we usually have one little hiccup between 5-6am where he wakes up and fusses for a bit but he doesn’t act hungry and will go back to sleep if I give him his pacifier. I think this week I might try not giving him the pacifier right away to see if he can get himself back to sleep on his own. anyway what a nice little baby. he is down for his first nap now and I am lying in bed listening to the rain :)
his sitter is coming at 2… here’s what I need to do before that:
read for 30 min
shower
take down dishes & bottles
clean up kitchen
maybe clean out fridge
take out trash and recycling
tidy bedroom and make bed
start laundry
while she’s here:
pack Q returns (with shipping label)
walk dogs if it stops raining
call PT to schedule
prep for student mtg
update and submit JE rec letter
if I get done with this stuff early I can write for a bit!
3:30-4:30 student mtg (I am really struggling with this kid sigh I gotta spend some time thinking about how to approach this)
