Happy Holidays

We're off to another holiday party today. We're praying that Lucas doesn't exhibit any stranger anxiety, which he has been doing the past month.

Happy Holidays!

Still rollin'

Mommy's fears of having Lucas rolling over in the crib have come true. For the last three nights Lucas has been rolling over from stomach to back in the middle of the night. The first night Lucas rolled over around 3am and wailed for a good hour. Lucas has never slept on his tummy before and I am sure being stuck on his tummy in the crib was frightening. The second night Lucas rolled over around the same time as the first night but only wimpered for 5-10 minutes before going back to sleep. It is true that babies this age are fast learners.

Our son the constant flipper

Lucas has been making attempts to flip (from back to tummy) for weeks and has finally mastered the skill over the last couple of days. Now, we just can't get him to stop. He flips over any chance he gets - on the playmat, in the crib. Seems like he's obsessed with this new skill!

We were a little concerned about Lucas being able to flip over in his crib. After much web research, apparently once babies reach the stage of being able to flip over, the risk of SIDS is pretty low.
