Sweet Sleep

Ollie almost slept through the night last night. He only got up once around 2 am for a bottle and slept until 5:30. His parents were most grateful. Unfortunately it came at a price. Earlier in the night he was up for 3 hrs. straight! Usually he only stays up 2 hrs and takes a nap and goes to bed. Needless to say, he wasn't a happy camper! Little SCREAMING howler monkey! His parents were at their wits end...vacuum cleaner to the rescue! He fussed a bit and wouldn't settle down from the crying and kept fighting his binky, but after about 10 minutes he was out. I'm not sure what to do with all this sleep.

On the food front, he's getting better at eating his baby food. Sometimes he likes to spit it back at you! His face ends up being the color of the food and so does his high-chair. He certainly enjoys it more than his bottle it seems. He even howls when you don't shove it in his face fast enough! Also, since he has started 'grabbing' for things, especially shiny things, he tries to help you with the spoon. Makes for a messy baby! He's a good little helper.
