Happy Halloween!

Well, you can see that he wasn't such a happy boy in his Halloween gear. Lots of it was 0-3 months, and just plain too small. There was one of him in a Halloween sleeper that fit him well and he liked that, but, when I tried to post it Blogger said ok it's posted but it wasn't. I tried twice. Sorry.

The one of him in his seat in the sleeper was taken Wednesday morning, and the one of him in the yellow cow outfit was yesterday.

At his monday Dr. appointment, he was 11 pounds 5 ounces, and 24 inches long. In the 95th percentile for his size! Two nights ago he almost slept through the night (sleeping for 6 hours is considered 'sleeping through the night', even if it's 8 pm to 2 am). He slept from 8 pm to 1:30am--he's getting there. Then he ate like a horse instead of a boy.

Last night wasn't that good, he was up every 2 hours or so, and he just wanted you to rock him in a chair while he slept. Once you stopped--he woke up.

He's too big for his Infantino baby sling I got at the baby shower, and so I bought this thing called a Moby Wrap. It's cool, and it's popular among NINO babywearing groups (NINO= nine in, nine out, they believe that after the nine months you carry them inside your body, you should then 'wear' them on the outside of your body for several hours a day in a sling or wrap for nine months, it's part of the attachment parenting theory, it's interesting but I don't have much time to tell you about it, you'll have to look it up to find out more, sorry) and he LOVES that. He's in that a lot.

And I am down 32 pounds! I gained 23 during my pregnancy, and now I am down 32 so far. Just from getting up with him all night, breastfeeding, and walking around carrying or 'wearing' him all day long. I'm telling you, having a baby = best weight loss secret EVER.
