Carter has been getting LOTS of extra attention the last few days because my mom has been here visiting. And he got lots of presents - new toys, books, and summer clothes. He's going to be one styling little man this summer with all the cute stuff he got!
I love that it's staying light later, but Carter hasn't really adjusted to daylight savings time all that well. We tried slowly moving his bedtime up so that it's at the same time as before daylight savings time started. Now it's taking a lot longer to get him to settle down enough to fall asleep. And I'm still letting him fall asleep on me after eating before putting him in his crib (since he needs to stay upright for 20 minutes I can't really prevent it) and lately he's waking up as soon as I put him down and getting really upset. Once we do get him down and asleep, he's waking up a few times in the next couple of hours screaming. Sometimes we pick him up and sometimes we let him get himself back to sleep on his own. I think we need to change our bedtime routine some in order to make it take less time to get him down and also figure out if we're going to go to him or let him "cry it out" and then be consistent.
However, once Carter's gotten to sleep, he's slept AWESOME the last two nights. He didn't get up to feed either night. He got up at 6am Sunday morning and 5am this morning. And this morning he went back to sleep after eating until 8am.
We got a little further on getting the office together this weekend - we added 2 bookcases. Now we just need either a desk or console table to go between the bookcases and we'll be set on furniture for that room.
