It's hard to believe Nolan will be four months old on Wednesday! Time is flying by. These past few weeks have been a little frustrating sleep-wise. Nolan has entered the dreaded "4 month sleep regression." For the past few weeks he has added 1-2 extra feedings per night. Since he was 6 weeks old he started only needing one motn feeding, but all that went out the window when he hit 15 weeks. I've been trying to read up on it and figure out how to help him sleep better and what we're trying is an earlier bedtime. From what I've read at this age babies' sleep changes from deep baby sleep to a lighter, more adult-like sleep. They also need a solid 11-12 hours of sleep per night. Since Nolan wakes up in the 6:30-7:30 time range every morning, we're going to try to get him to sleep by 7:30 at the lastest. Hopefully this will help him to sleep better at night. Fingers are crossed!
Last weekend Jason and I took a bunch of picturs of Nolan. When we edit them I'll add post them on here.
Other than causing me to be extra sleepy these last few weeks, Nolan has been busy rolling, scooting (he can turn himself around 180 degress, and one time turned 270 degrees!), babbling, giggling, grabbing things and putting them in his mouth, and DROOLING! A TON! We can't tell if he is teething or not, but he constantly wants to put things in his mouth, from his hands to a soft blankie to a teether. He will happily nom nom on your finger if you let him.
I'll put more pictures on my next post. For now, here is Nolan and his buddy Keegan (he watches Keegan and just grins at him).
