After seeing a friend's blog and realizing how quickly the little ones change I decided it would be a great idea to start blogging about his life every week. I'm almost caught up then we will have weekly blogs.

Weeks 9-11: Brayden has really started getting more alert these last few weeks. He loves watching the TV. He is drawn to it just like his daddy. It amazes me every day how much they look alike. I carried him for 9 months and Jeremy gets the glory of him looking like him. Not fair! Anyway he is a cute little man. He is starting to try and laugh. This morning he let out a little giggle and the both of us just looked at him. He still hates riding in the car, unfortunately nothing has changed there. He has been sick the last 2 weeks. He has developed a bad cough and is having to get breathing treatments. He takes them like a trooper. We feel so bad for our little man when he coughs.

On a more positive note, he is sleeping in his co-sleeper. It is a bed the size of a crib attached to our mattress. His actual crib was recalled so we are waiting on replacement parts before he can go back in it, bummer. We are so proud of him though for sleeping by himself, and not in the swing. We tried it one night and he just slept, finally. We have had to move his bath and bedtime back to 8pm. Since the time is changing soon I thought it would work better. For the last 4 nights he has slept from about 8-8:30 all the way till 6am. What a great sleeper!!! You will not hear me complain about being sleep deprived. However i do not get to ever sleep in. It's about time dad take turns haha...

As far as daycare he is still doing great. He is finally starting to take naps there. They have to swaddle him all day to get him calm. I guess it makes him feel comfortable. It is hard not to have mommy guilt with him going to daycare but I know it is what we have to do. Jeremy tries to go in earlier so he can get off early and go pick him up. I take him in when I go to work.

He is still loving bath time. I think it is his favorite time of the day. He just lays there in ahh and enjoys the warm water. He also loves to pee in the water. I will put him in his seat and the water fountain will start!

I had my first experience with poop in my hand. It looked great on my fake nails lol.. I picked him up and it gushed out the back of his diaper all onto my hand. I was a little shocked and didn't know what to do. Dad laughed of course!!! Oh the joys of motherhood.

Brayden had become a fan of being held. I guess you could say he is spoiled. He wants to be held all the time and I have a hard time saying no because I miss him so much when Im at work. Well as long he knows he is loved!

Well not much else has changed the last few weeks. We are still in love with being new parents. It is a very challenging yet rewarding job. We love our little man!!!
