Another 1st...

Our sweet baby slept in his crib for the first time last night like a big boy! It is so unbelievable that 13 weeks ago when we 1st put him in his cradle, we thought...'this cradle is HUGE and he is SO tiny'. However, the last few nights he had been getting himself wedged in the cradle sideways and could not stretch his arms all the way out to his sides without touching the bumper. Last night as we were getting ready to transition him into his new room he was not happy at all. (In fact, he has not been happy for 2-3 days now.) He was staring at the crib and screaming like it was the devil and he was scared of it. However, once we got him settled and he realized how much better the mattress was (thanks Uncle B) and how much room he had, we think he loved it! He slept longer than he had in a few nights. I think it is still somewhat of an adjustment and will take a few nights, but what doesn't? Currently, he again is still sleeping since bedtime (he usually gets up at 11pm and it's now 1130pm).
In other news, we decided that now that he is 3 months old he needs to begin taking naps in his crib/cradle or wherever he sleeps. This is not going over so well. Gage has not napped in a few days and has been especially cranky. We are not so sure what to do, but like everything else, we know it will pass and we will all be fine. Until then we will only have a happy baby for half a day until he gets too tired to even think, or until we take him for a car ride. Good thing I wasn't working this week. Thanks Mother Nature. Wow........3 months old on Sunday! More pictures to come...
