This blog is just one of the many things being neglected right now as our chubby baby takes over our lives.  Jason returned to work two and a half weeks ago so Max and I have been on our own.  Up until last week Max would only sleep in my arms during the day, making it difficult to get anything done.  Fortunately last week he started enjoying his big swing, allowing Mommy to nap too.  Unfortunately, last week Max started becoming fussy in the evenings, making our nights a little hectic.  Some nights Max just needs cuddles until he's ready for bed but there have been several evenings when he cries and cries and cries with Mommy and Daddy trying everything they can think of to console him.  Those are tough nights but Jason is a big help and we get through them.  We knew this fussy period was coming and we know we just have to get through it until he settles down.  To add extra excitement to my life Max has hit his 6 week growth spurt so he's waking up every hour or two to nurse so I'm exhausted.  Thank goodness he's such a cute little lovebug!
