TGIF!

Yesterday we were able to go to the park in the early evening cause the sun finally came out for us. It looks like today we have some high clouds, but they seem to be burning off and I see blue skies! I'm hoping that after nap, it will still be nice and we can head out to the park again. I don't think it will be warm enough to swim...so at least being at the park will get us out. :-) Cole was awake most of the night, just wanting to be held and to nurse at his leisure. I was thinking he was like Ryan and didn't like being swaddled because basically since we left the hospital, every time I've tried to swaddle him, he fought me...kicking and moving his arms all over. Well Jenn mentioned to try it again this morning and low and behold it worked. So either he's okay with being swaddled or he was just so tired he was will to let it slide. :-) Either way, I'm okay with it. Cause after only about an hour and a half of sleep, I'm ready for a nap! I'm going to get Ryan's lunch made and then get him down for a nap so I can doze for a little bit too.

I love swaddled babies... Hope he enjoys it more. Delaney seems to sleep better when she's swaddled up tight, but inevitably she wiggles her arms out by morning.

i'm glad that he didn't wake up the second we got off the phone!

I really can't believe they're doing this to me, they don't understand how much stress this causes me!

I swaddled both girls for naps and night time and it works wonders. They have two great blankets....the swaddle blanket from Target/Wal-mart or the Miracle Blanket from babycenter.com. I love them both!!
