This week has been fairly easy with the exception that Max never wants to sleep during the day. He fights going to sleep and then gets fussy because he is exhausted. Last night we were at my parents house for dinner and we put him down at 7 but he didn't want to sleep so lucky him, we took him out into the dining room with us. He was so cute and got tons of kisses from Grandma which he was loving every minute of. We finally put him down around 8:30 and he slept until 2:30am! He skipped his 10pm feeding and slept for six hours! He has never really done that before and it was amazing. Granted I had to still get up in the middle of the night for a feeding, but in all fairness he did skip his 10pm feeding. Usually I would have woken him up for it, but he was soooo tired from not having slept all day that I wanted him to sleep. His eyes are turning from blue to green/gray. They are starting to look like Steve's mom's eye color. I'll be curious to see what they turn out to be. More and more people are now saying he is looking like Steve these days but with my hair color. After we get back from Miami we are going to have his head shaved. That way all his hair will grow in at once.
This week we worked on our picture wall...it's the wall in the middle of Max's room and our current guest room (it will be child number 2's room). It has a ton of black and white pictures of our past. We will be adding more to it over the years but it looks great thus far.
Since sex after a baby always seems to be a topic of discussion and many of you have asked me if we have tried it since giving birth, here is the answer: Yes, today we finally tried it with tons of lube of course and besides the initial pain where i could feel where my stitches were it was great. We are finally back in action! Today I had a facial, it was much needed. I got microdermabrasion done for the first time and now my face feels soooo soft. I had so many blackheads etc. that she had to extract, and now I look like I'm going through my teenage years again lol Hopefully it will clear up tomorrow. Speaking of tomorrow, we are going to take Max into Manhattan for the first time so Steve can get his birth certificate fixed. They spelled his first and last name incorrectly at birth...go figure. I'm curious to see how Max will behave in public...tomorrow he is 2 months old! I can't believe my son is already eight weeks old and my maternity leave is almost over...so sad. I'm going to enjoy every minute I have left at home. Now off to go fold some his clothes xoxo
Oh he is so adorable. Aidan went through a phase of not sleeping during the day, it lasted about a week and now he's napping some, although not as much as he should probably. Good luck in Manhatten!
