6 weeks

This week has gone a little better.  We tend to have good days and bad.  Overall  he isn't eating as much.  Tends to have one day of eating all day and others where he sleeps a lot!  Nights are going better too.  He slept from 930 till 215 last night!  But he was up most of the day and was very fussy.  He finally wore himself out.  We are getting him to sleep in his cosleeper better.  He has to be out cold!  If he's even slightly awake then he wakes up as soon as you put him down. We may try his crib to see if he likes that better.  

We got his head X-rayed.   They had to strap him in.  He was not happy!  He cried the whole time.  They had to roll him in his side while he was strapped in.  Steve stayed with him the whole time.  It was adorable and sad at the same time.  But good news is that his head is not fractured.  His hematoma has calcified and will take a few months to heal.  

He is starting to grab things.  I brought out some toys yesterday and he grabbed one.  Not really on purpose but he still held it.  He is growing like crazy!!  He looks huge in his car seat now.  We don't need to use the head support anymore.  

I've started taking walks with him and Ethel each night.  I'm doing pretty good with pushing the stroller and walking Ethel.  It's nice to get out and about!!
