Nathan made a comment about how surprised he was that I've been so open about the co sleeping since I previously was not a fan. But that is life. That is how you grow. You experience life and sometimes find that you change your mind about things. This is one of those times. The past seven weeks with Milo have made me change my thoughts on a lot of things. Yes, I did change my mind about the co sleeping, and I'm not afraid to admit it. I'm just glad we found a good, safe way to do it.
I'm now starting to think Milo may be teething. That's not to say his first tooth will show up immediately but I definitely think things are starting to move around in his sweet little mouth. He's hasn't been sleeping terribly great and he has been pretty irritable today. He even fussed in the Moby today at the mall... that has NEVER happened. And he has been gnawing on his hand like crazy. I know some drooling and chewing on the hands is normal, but Milo is definitely not himself. He wasn't even happy being naked on the changing table which is a sure sign something is bothering him. And it even seems to be different then when he has had tummy troubles in the past. I don't know if it is gas, teething, or a growth spurt, but all I know is I hope it is not teething. I told my mom that my nipples are finally starting to heal... I'm not ready to deal with Milo nursing with teeth since he's still clamping! Ouch. I'll definitely be mentioning this at Milo's next appointment on the 17th.
Yesterday we went to our friend (one of the photographers at the paper) Thomas' place for brats. We had a nice time and I think the guys enjoyed seeing Milo (Thomas enjoyed making Milo dance to James Brown.) It ended up being a beautiful, cool evening. So this morning we turned off the air and opened the windows. It was great to have some fresh air. It did get warm in the house this afternoon, but now it is just so pleasant. I'm thinking we may try keeping the windows open tonight. If it does get too cool... I'll just have Nathan get up and close them.
Baby's awake... that's all for now.
