Went out to the mail box the other day and *WHAM*
Another trippy moment.
Another trippy moment.
The whole thing is for real when your kid gets mail from the government.
One for each of us ... unfortunately Ben and mine are bills. Danget.
Tomorrow is another practice run for the trip home to Utah next week. Last week Ben was craving panda express and we made a mad dash to Kennewick. I would call it a success.
Tomorrow Ben is giving a lecture to the pharmacy school newbies at Washington State University in Spokane. We are spending the night there too....
So we'll see how that goes down.
Ben's been pretty stressed about it.
Here you can see him 'trying' to study... Dalton is not helping..

Question:
Mama's of the interwebs... D is starting to throw these.. tantrums when he gets tired. Like he's tired, and it's time to sleep but he's forgotten how and it makes him hot mad. If I don't intercept and get him to sleep... it can be a couple hrs of screaming (still cute screaming). Is this when I need to try the weird stuff like riding the drying or running the vacuum or whatever. Or coming up with a wind down routine?
Thank you. :)

So this is what has worked for both of my babies...4-step process, in this order: 1. Straight jacket swaddle, so tight he can't move but not cutting off circulation or anything. 2. Hold them on their side. 3. Jiggle/bounce (easiest to do this while walking around). 4. Loudly say "shhhh" repeatedly, pretty loudly, RIGHT into their ear. Lemme know what happens.
I second that - give the swaddle/shushing thing a try. :) Did Roberta go over that in your childbirth class?
I agree with Amanda. Also, this book has saved my life..."Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child" by Marc Weisbluth. It teaches you how to sleep train your baby. It was a lifesaver for me. :)
When will you be in Utah?
