From happy to mad in 2 seconds flat


Andy has colic. He is a terribly cranky brute, and if he is awake he is screaming. It has been really hard on all of us. We are sleep depreived and that makes it all worse of course. Thank goodness Andy loves the sling (and Ijust got a really good one), becasue he doesn't like the sing, bouncy seat, cuddle seat, or lying down. He is just such a fussy baby!

Andy is 4 weeks old today. He weighs 10lbs 4oz, and is still wearing clothes that fit up to 8lbs. He is very long and lean! He has beautiful, full, pouty lips and really big hands and feet. Like his big brother Owen, I think Andy will be quite tall.

But every night around 9am, Andy screams for 2-3 hours straight. Oddly enough, those are the house he would wake up and kick the crapout of me when he was inside the womb. He has terribly bad gas and these evening hours and when it is the worst (for some reason).

damien was also very fussy and gassy in the evenings - don't know why that is... it seemed like it lasted many months - but i think it actually passed fairly quickly... hope he gets passed this stage soon so you all can get a little sleep :)
