For a while now Ajax has been giving us spontaneous grins, however, these have been either gassy grins or not a real connected grin. Today, however, it seems Ajax has finally put together the smile. From the moment he woke up this morning and I picked him up he’s been grinning at me and “talking.” He’s been telling me all about it today.
Dave and I have also been working very hard at sticking to a nighttime routine. I would like to report that we’re doing very well. We start with a bath between 6:45 and 7:15 pm, then a bottle and in bed by 8:00. Right now Ajax doesn’t seem to appreciate a book in that equation as he’s too interested in his bottle. We have also transitioned him to his own room and crib. I am surprised at how much better Ajax is sleeping in his own room. Dave and I are also sleeping better, though we’ve been camped out in the living room next to his room as I don’t want to be to far away from him and our bedroom is upstairs.
