The month of January

We had an amazing Christmas and got so many awesome things. I wanted clothes in sizes 6-9 or 9months and up. I figured, I would need it soon enough but didn't realize I would be putting away the 6 month stuff 2 days after christmas. That would explain why I spent all night christmas eve nursing and not sleeping. So mr man is wearing 6-9 clothes. Gerber is too small, so is gerber 12 month onsies. Carters snap pjs fit, but zip up pjs are way to big. Some outfits fit awesome, some are big. The cloth butts make pjs harder at night from extra stuffing them but, whatever. We also moved into out new house the week before christmas. That is around the same time mr man started the I NEEEEEEEEEED YOU stage. He is okay in the morning playing, but when hes tired or later in the day, he wants to be entertained.
 Its not even that he wants to be held or cuddled, he just wants you to play with him. So we play, read, play, play and play. I can still stick him in the bouncy seat while I shower as long as I sing or talk to him and stick my head out every 2 mins. I try during naps but I have unpacking and cleaning still during these naps.
 Today was the first day of fake crying. By fake crying, I dont mean crying for no reason. I mean, fake as ever and funny as heck crying. I was going to the bathroom for 2 seconds and I could tell it was fake just by the tone. Silly boy. The fake coughing as been going on for a while too. Usually, he knows he can get our attention by blowing raspberries. Or screatching. Or squealing.
Or saying Hi. He has said Hi twice. He also says mom but only when hes crying and he has said I love you. Well, the I love you was more of a noise he made that sounded like i love you and the moms arent on purpose. And the hi is probably not real either. But its funny.
He likes to roll all over. But when he doesnt want to roll, he wants to be on his feet. If you hold his hands, he can move his legs to walk. He cant really sit up on his own yet. He can sit if you hold his legs but if your not holding his legs down, he falls over once he wiggles a bit.
We eat food. Well, we try to eat food but it usually ends in a dog getting fed. Logan liked butternut squash a few times but didn't want it others. Rice is a hit or miss. I have it flavored too. Sometimes he wants it and it cant come fast enough, other times, nope. He liked the pears though. He ate the carrots the first time but made the funny faces. Second time, nope. He likes his mum mums though. I have green beans ready to go after a few more carrot rounds. He also likes his sippy. Well, he plays with it. He doesn't know how to get the watered down apple juice out of it yet. He also likes the little hug's bottles and lick's them out after Matt drinks it. He also liked other bottles that i have no documentation of.
We are starting to use the carriers more when out and about and sitting in the shopping cart. He loves going places and seeing his surroundings.
He has yet to sleep through the night.  I usually put him to bed at 9ish (he takes an evening nap around 5 or 6 despite every effort to not sleep). I go to bed around 11-12ish (bad, i know) and change him into his night diaper and sleep sack and feed him. He usually wakes up around 2 or 3 and then again around 5 or 6 and then again around 7:30 when Matt leaves. Sometimes he goes back to sleep till 9 or 10 and others he wakes up and takes a morning nap around 9 or 10. Then he naps in the afternoon 1:30ish-3:30-4ish and the again around 6 for a bit. I try to wake him by 7pm. He may not sleep through, but he goes right back to bed. Hes still in the PnP net to the bed cause he does keep getting up still. Ive been trying to put the paci back in his mouth but he usually wants to eat. He occasionally lands in the bed but hes usually fine in his PnP. His room is on the first to paint list. As soon as its done, we will work on getting Logan into his room.
We had thrush between thanksgiving and christmas and I am currently taking antibiotics for mastitis. Logan is cute and smiley still. He may have teeth very soon cause hes fussy and chomps on his fingers all day long when a teether is not in his hands.
