December has been a big month for our little man...lots of milestones! Last week (Thursday, December 8th to be exact), Stafford went from wearing newborn-sized diapers to a size 1 diaper AND from his newborn clothes to 3 month clothes! It makes me a teeny bit sad that I have to pack up all of his sweet little newborn gowns but I love that he's growing and getting bigger everyday. In the past week, he has also started smiling and laughing A LOT. It might be the cutest thing ever!! He is so much more alert, now, and turns his head to whomever is talking to him. He's also gone from eating mainly 4 ounces per feeding to at least 5-6 ounces per feeding. He has really started "self-soothing" a lot more...which is great!
His current loves are: watching tv while he eats, sucking on his wubbanub (pacifier), swinging, chewing on his fingers, staring at the Christmas tree and laughing at my silly faces. He is still sleeping through the night but hasn't made it to his own room just yet. His acid reflux is still preventing him from laying down flat so he's sleeping in the fisher-price newborn rock & play sleeper by our bed. If you have a newborn with acid reflux, this is THE thing to buy....amazing!
His current dislikes are: acid reflux problems, having clothes pulled over his head and having his nose suctioned with the bulb-thingy. Unfortunately for him, I love that bulb and use it frequently...I can't stand a dirty nose!
Stafford has met Santa (they got along famously), gone to his first Christmas party at KK and William's house and met 2 new friends as well!! Merry Christmas!!
