Sleeping Schedule

We're trying to get Luca to self soothe and put himself to sleep. Last night he cried/screamed for about 45 minutes before I rocked the crib and he fell asleep. So far tonight he has been screaming for about 22 minutes with no sign of letting up anytime soon. We are trying to establish a ritual for bedtime that he will eventually enjoy. We give him a bath or a tummy tub, take him into his bedroom and I play guitar and sing him songs for about 15 minutes before we put him in his crib. Kristine and I go into his room and reassure him that we aren't abandoning him by putting our hands on his chest and telling him that he's okay...but it is absolutely heart breaking for both Kristine and I to not pick him up and comfort him. When we go in to reassure him...his little face is red and there are tears rolling down his cheeks. We know it is for the best for all of us in the long run, but this is one of the hardest things that we have had to do yet.

Good Night Luca

A rough day of teething and a long day at the bakery. Finished up the night by spending some time with Grandma and Grandpa Artie and the Fischer cousins for Hot Harley Nights. See you tomorrow. Sweet Dreams.

4 month checkup for Luca

Here are yhe vitals: Head - 16.26" or 25th percentile. . Length - 24 3/4"or 44th percentile. Weight - 13 lbs.13 oz. or 27th percentile. We are also getting a couple of shots today for vaccines. Two needles and one oral. He did great again today with his shots. Cried for a very short time and then Kristine nursed him and he fell asleep. Might be asleep due to the Tylenol...or because he hasn't really taken a nap today.
