Since Wes came home from the hospital, he hasn’t had a real place to sleep. \u00a0Well, he has, but he hasn’t used it. \u00a0Being a fairly clingy little boy, he slept where ever he fell asleep, and that was usually in our arms. \u00a0Put him down, he wakes up. \u00a0Without fail. \u00a0So in order to get anything done around here, including get some sleep, we just dealt with it.<\/p>\n

But reality sets in quick when you realize what you can and can’t do with a baby in your arms. \u00a0As much as I secretly LOVED snuggling with him, stealing sniffs of his glorious new baby smell and covering him in kisses while he snoozed in my arms, there was so much that was not getting accomplished around the house. \u00a0Even the small things are a chore when both of your hands are not free. \u00a0Ever try getting a jar of peanut butter open with one hand? \u00a0How about fill a baggie with snacks and THEN close it? \u00a0Go pee? \u00a0You get my drift.<\/p>\n

So the inevitable happened over the weekend. \u00a0Wes slept in his crib. \u00a0Not overnight yet, but he’s taking long naps there and I am experiencing a little freedom. \u00a0I think he’s enjoying it too. \u00a0He’s gone from sleeping for 45 minutes to an hour to more than two. \u00a0And who can blame him? \u00a0Look how comfy he looks all swaddled up like a burrito…<\/p>\n
