Irony...

Micah has been learning so much lately, and we're starting to see that interfering with his sleep! Today, on every one of his 3 naps, when I put him down he almost immediately rolled over to his tummy. Problem is, he doesn't know how to roll back over AND he never sleeps on his tummy, thus the interfering with his sleep. When he rolls over he puts his head up and looks around for about 3-5 minutes, and then begins to fuss until I come in and then he becomes happy and flails his arms and legs:) He's so cute when doing this, but when he's not sleeping and I'm continually going in to turn him over, the cuteness starts to wear off (only just a little, haha!)

Ironically, just the night before I had told Christian how easy he is to put down for bed at night. Nap times might be a struggle here and there, but bed time NEVER is. He always goes down at night relatively quickly on his own, and stays asleep most of the night. So, tonight when I put him down to sleep, he rolled to his tummy right away and I'm thinking - wasn't it just last night that I told Christian how he goes over without any problem? So funny that the night just after I voiced this, it took Micah about 1/2 hour to go to sleep because he kept turning over, or trying to turn over.

I've been told this is normal and that it goes quickly, so we'll just wait this out and see what happens. Either way though, he's so cute and Christian and I love watching him through the video monitor seeing him working so hard to roll over and test out all the new things he's learning. Pretty soon he's going to be sitting up on his own, and testing this out in the crib as well!

  1. Poor little guy - and poor you! Isn't it true that just when you get something "figured out" it goes ahead and changes :) I still remember when Josh first learned to stand in his crib... but didn't know how to sit back down by himself! That was a fun couple of days... Hope today is going better!
