What happen here???????
Every morning Tyler plays on his mat and watches baby Einstein movies. Well This morning I left him playing, made coffee, and returned to find him totally turned around facing the TV head on with the toys behind him. He did a 180 somehow.
Nothing better than....
1. Watching TV with your Daddy while your sick....plus I couldn't believe already how similar they look doing things........
3. Being loved and getting smothered in kisses when you don't feel good
2. Petting an animal or grapping his tail when your are sick
3. Being loved and getting smothered in kisses when you don't feel good
Starting with a Bang!
I have been so excited about Tyler turning 4 months for weeks and weeks because I knew that meant he was going to start eating baby cereal. So on Tuesday the 26th we had our 4 month well baby check up to go to and we would get the ok and I would start the cereal process in hopes it would help him sleep better. Boy was I wrong...let me paint the picture..................
On Monday night, Ty started getting fuzzy and tooting a lot so I gave him something for gas and a warm bath and he was fine. BUT then throughout the night he got up 11 times and would not sleep unless he was with me and no more than an hour at a time. In the morning around 5:30am he woke up and was so hot! No way !!! I thought he can't be sick I have done everything they told me to keep me healthy and he still got sick??? I breast feed him, no day care, no one sick around him, I was my hands with diapers, I wash his hands.....how could this happen???? Well sure enough temp of 100.8 and he was FUSSY!!! So I call the doctor's answering service, work ( which I was so looking forward to going to since I LOVE my new job) and Jerry. So now our well baby check up is no more and cereal feeding is no more instead I am missing work and we are going for our first sick visit.
We get to the doctor's office and I take Matt for baby back up since nothing is making "Tyler Smilerson" happy and they say he has a GI bug and it will be DAYS possibly before the diarrhea or fever breaks and I am SUPPOSED to just ride it out....HEllO I am in health care. I don't ride things out I take action! So I was sooooooooo frustrated. Jerry then decides to come home because he is also so worried which was a blessing since I had to go to work the next day and I was running on 1 hour of sleep with a nonstop crying baby. Thank God for blessing me with such a wonderful husband! And we start to ride out the storm aka Tyler.
From Tuesday until Late Thursday night we had a baby that would not let you put him down or stop moving with him at all. At times he would not breastfeed which stressed me out and required Tylenol around the clock just to keep his fever down to 99.8 for 4 hours. It was rough and then like magic I saw the light......he would play a little and he slept in his crib for 2hours..yeah we made it. So Thursday night Jerry went back to work and on Friday Matt returned to childcare. I think this has been the most stressful time yet with Tyler because I could not doing anything at all. I just went with what made him happy and a lot of baths.
SO here are some pictures of before and after the storm and I am glad for every one's support during this time.

The End of Month 3
This month has been crazy. Well we all know I started work on May 11th, 15 weeks after Tyler came into this world. Matt was taught how to take care of Tyler and what his day consists of and Jerry is still off working at the never ending job.
Tyler this month has learned so much. He now zerbers...aka makes fart noises. Realized that he has arms and hands, so he is always eating them. Tummy time has gotten better and I think he is ready to start eating baby cereal. He is able to lift his legs in the air and now kicks his toys on the play mat. He holds toys now and eats them. He watches baby Einstein movies every morning and loves them. He also now realizes that he has kitties around him and will stop to watch them. Ty loves talking on the phone to his daddy daily especially if he can eat it. Uses his Bumbo chair to sit in and holds toys. Constantly wants to stand. Rolls over a couple times a week.
On the other side he stopped sleeping so well through the night. He now sleeps only 3hours at a time instead of 6-7 hours. So that makes going to work rough!!
My job is great and I love it. This alone has made going back to work so much easier. Matt is doing a great job. I can go to work and focus on work and know Tyler is in good hands and being loved. I wouldn't want him with anyone else.
