Teething?

So my little dude is continuing to grow well, last friday he weighed a whopping 13 and a half pounds only a half a pound lighter then his friend Cason who is 4 months older!

He’s continuing to be a pretty easy baby so far.  Although there have been days in the last week that the only way he isn’t crying is feeding him or holding him (in the Moby wrap) constantly, another amazingly appeasing thing is letting him chew on my finger vigorously.  He’s also started bubbling at the mouth and drooling and trying to shove his whole fist in his mouth very restlessly.  I notice if I rub his gums with my finger it either instantly appeases him or every once in a while makes him scream more.  it seems to early for teething but it seems like it.  I know it can take a long time for them to cut teeth so maybe it’s just starting to work it’s way up.

It’s hard to believe my little man is 7 weeks old!  he has his two month pediatrician appointment on the 25th, he’ll be getting his first vaccines then two.  Hopefully he will do well!  In this last week he has also gone down to one feeding at night! yay!  I usually feed him right before bed, typically around 11:30ish.  Then he usually eats sometime between 4 and 5 (although this morning it was 5:45).  Then around 8:30 in the morning!  It makes sleeping much better! We end up having him sleep with us in bed most of the night but I think he’s doing better at sleeping soundly in his little sleeper by our bed.  We won’t transition him into a crib until we move and he has his own room.

We are in the process of looking for a new place to rent.  We love where we are, the building, the location, the building managers, the other occupants are all great, but we need more space then just a 1 bedroom.  We figured it would be nice to fid a place we’d be happy in until we are able to save up for our own place so we are looking for a single family home, although we are looking at some townhouses.  We would preferably like a fenced in bakyard for Maya but it would be helpful for Coen when he’s bigger.  We are also looking to go more north to be closer to friends and family. We gone to a few places to check out we’ve liked a few and disliked a few, one we love!  It’s still pretty early though since our lease isn’t up till the end of April so hopefully we find the right place for us, and hopefully our move isn’t too hard with having a little one around!

Well I guess that’s all for now, except for a few more photos I have to get in!
