Week 7

Up until this point, Cam has been napping anywhere: on us, in his bouncy seat, in the swing, in the Moby or Bjorn, etc. But now we're starting the process of getting him used to his crib. And he successfully napped there for the first time this week! Basically, we want to transition him (eventually) to be sleeping in the crib in his own room at night, and to do this, we have to get him comfortable with that environment, since he's only known in the bassinet upstairs in our room. So far, so good...

We're not quite sure yet when we want that transition to happen, but I'm thinking maybe sometime in December? January is going to bring about lots of changes what with me going back to work. Different caretakers, more bottle feedings, etc. I'd like to try to space out the new things as much as possible.

We also started tummy time this week. He is able to lift his head off the blanket and shift from one cheek to the other, but man, he is NOT very happy about it. Most of the time is spent lying there and crying. I'm sure it must be frustrating to be face down and not be able to do much about it! I just keep thinking about how much his big head weighs. :-/
