First, happy birthday to Maxwell’s Great Granddaddy and namesake today! 89!
Granddaddy and Maxwell – 2010
We love you Granddaddy!
Second, Spencer slept pretty good last night! He woke up and cried for a few minutes around 1:00 am but then went back to sleep until 5:50 am. A little early wake-up but that’s ok, we’ll work through it. Is it better to have to get up and start your day at 6:00? or have to get up around 3:00 and then go back to sleep for a few more hours? Hmm…
Spencer also took a nap in his crib yesterday! We put him in there for his morning nap and it went ok. He usually sleeps about 2 to 3 hours in the morning in his swing and he only slept about 45 minutes in his crib. Not great but it’s a process and we’ll get there.
Maxwell continues to be a great sleeper and loves his crib. I’m thinking of switching things up though. For a variety of reasons I think I’m going to switch the boys’ rooms. So, if I put Maxwell into Spencer’s room do I go on and move him into a big (twin size) bed? or move his crib in there and keep him in the crib longer? On one hand, I don’t want to mess things up because he’s SUCH a good sleeper but, on the other hand, he’s got to move at some point and he seems to act like he wants to sleep in the big bed. Decisions, decisions! We’ll see.
Both boys are just on cute highs these days. Spencer is my chubby wubby little snuggle bug (doesn’t get cuter than that description, does it!?) and the things that Maxwell says every day are just beyond adorable. His latest? Always yelling ” Yippie Yi Yo Kayah!” from Toy Story and then always giving us “two thumbs up!”
A few pics for you…
Two thumbs up!
Chewing on everything these days…
Mr. Hollywood…
Love these sweet babies!
See you tomorrow!
I bet Maxwell’s ready and I bet he’ll love the yellow truck room. 🙂 He might not always want to sleep in the new bed tho. Delaney started off just using a new bed for everything, then she just used it for naps and then the crib at night for a few more months and then back to the toddler bed for everything. You may go back and forth for a bit but he’ll settle in quickly. Good luck.
These little boys are growing up too fast – can’t we keep them little a while longer!
