14 weeks!

Oliver is 14 weeks as of yesterday! He's had a few big changes to his sleep patterns this week. At the beginning of the week, he hit a growth spurt and wanted to eat all the time, even at night. He went from sleeping 5-6 hours at a time down to just 2! So I'm hoping he's about done with that schedule. He also decided he didn't want to be swaddled anymore. The problem is that when he's not swaddled he wakes himself up very easily. He's already getting a little bit better so I'm hoping in a few days he'll be back to sleeping for longer periods. Last night he managed 3 hours before he woke himself up. He's blabbering all the time, from the time he wakes up until the time he falls asleep. It's so cute. If you're lucky enough you might be able to hear him over the phone, that is if he doesn't try to eat my cell phone first. He must be teething because he's drooling all over the place and he likes to suck on his teething rings. He also loves to kick anything that is near his legs, hard. Last night during his bath he was kicking as hard as he could and the kitchen was completely covered in water. He would pause every once in a while to cry because he got water in his eyes, and then go back to kicking furiously.

I'm going to try to get all of the pictures up from the holidays today so there should be a few more posts. Here's one from New Year's Eve. As you can see, we didn't exactly stay up to watch the ball drop. Nick woke up when we took the picture. He's laughing because we have so many pictures of him and Oliver sleeping like this.
