ONE
MONTH OLD
Gregory is a good sleeper! He goes to bed at about 10 and
sleeps until 3 or sometimes 4. After a feeding he goes
back to sleep until about 7, even if he's a little restless
during this early morning stretch. Like Aaron at this age,
he lifts his head well and can already roll from tummy to back.
He's a calm little guy who enjoys cuddling. His complaints
consist of a yelp or two for attention and a cry when he needs
something. Aaron, meanwhile is a great big brother!
He's very careful with Gregory and can't wait to be able to
really play with him.
TWO
MONTHS OLD
Gregory is still a good sleeper but he's definitely awake more
now! Gregory is quite the chatterbox. He coos, has
begun to squeal, and seems to attempt to mimic sounds.
He's growing fast and his personality is beginning to really
shine. He's relaxed but certain of what he wants. He
complains more than cries and only when he's really needing
something. Aaron continues to be a smashing big bro.
So far almost no jealousy. He just wants time to lay on
the floor with him and try to get him to play.
THREE MONTHS OLD
Gregory is now sleeping through the night for the most part.
He can be pacified in his bed until 6:30 and then he likes to
have a nice big bottle. He's still Mr. Chatterbox. He
loves to use his higher voice to squeal more with pleasure and
grumpiness. He's putting on size quicker than Aaron did
and definitely has inherited Mom's thighs. Poor kid!
I think he may be a future Packer linebacker!
He's still even tempered and much prefers being happy. Aaron
is still enjoying being the big brother although sharing time
with Mommy can really be a pain in his side!
FOUR MONTHS OLD
Gregory is still sleeping well
but has been going through a growth spurt and sometimes waking
for food early. He's very, very vocal! He's
constantly squealing, yelping, grunting, giggling and making
noise. He loves to be chatting with anyone and everyone.
Gregory's personality is really coming to the fore. He
gets a bit of a temper once in a while but is mostly happy and
full of smiles. He's now trying to scoot and starting to
sit! Aaron's going to have to watch out!
FIVE MONTHS OLD
Gregory is working hard on his scooting and sitting abilities.
He can scoot in circles and backwards a bit. He gets very
frustrated that he's not able to just get up and go. His
favorite pastime is jumping in his jumperoo. He loves to
squeal and giggle and let us know what's up in his world.
He's still very mild mannered and a great sleeper but his silly
side is starting to show a bit more. He loves to pull on
Aaron's hair and watch everything Aaron does. Aaron is his
favorite tv show!!!
SIX MONTHS OLD
Gregory is sitting pretty well. We still need to keep an
eye on him so he doesn't crash.
He can scoot in circles to get anything around him. He
still can't go forward and gets very
frustrated. Gregory got his first tooth halfway through
his fifth month and seems to be working on another one.
Tons of drool! A little more cranky sometimes. Aaron
is starting to really love being the big brother. He begs
to play with Gregory and loves making him laugh. No one
entertains Gregory more!
