Bryce 28 Months - Faith 6 weeks





This last month has definitely been a tough one. I've had to learn how to balance my time between Bryce and Faith, cleaning the house, taking care of our finances, doing a little part-time work and finding time for myself.

Bryce's behavior has improved a lot the past two weeks. He has not hit or tried to hurt Faith or anyone else besides Nathan and I. He is still acting out towards us, but not as much. We have definitely determined that he acts out when he is hungry or very tired. If we make sure he eats every few hours and that he gets enough rest his behavior greatly improves. We've been fairly successful at getting him to eat regularly so his blood sugar doesn't drop, but making sure he is getting enough sleep is tough. He has learned to get out of his crib, so naps have been a little difficult. He has started sleeping on his fold-out couch for naps which has helped.

Faith is still a very easy baby. She is sleep great at night (waking up only twice still) and is usually happy during the day. She still gets fussy now and then and sometimes has tummy trouble which makes her very fussy. She is becoming more and more alert. She can hold her own head and push herself up and look around when she is on her tummy. She is cooing at us and smiling lots.
