Make it stop!

Our week back home has been pretty low-key.  We have been getting back in our routine and enjoying the beautiful weather.  Jacob has really developed quite an attachment to A this week as well.  I'm not sure if it is related to him being gone for a few days last week, or if it's just a normal thing.  He has always loved him and smiled when he saw him, but lately he has cried when he leaves the room.  It's kinda pitiful, but then it's so sweet to see how big he smiles when A walks back in. 


Jacob has also learned a cool new trick - he can put his toes in his mouth!

I think the motivation to put his toes in his mouth is closely related to his recent motivation to put anything and everything he can in his mouth.  We're pretty sure he is teething.  We know this because our happy, relaxed, laid-back baby is now fussing, crying, and just generally unhappy most of the day and night.  He has been sleeping for 10-12 hours a night, but not anymore.  We are lucky to get 4-5 hours before he wakes up and usually end up with him in our bed for the next 4-5 hours just so we can all 3 get some rest.  I'm really hoping one week of this will be enough for now, but I seriously doubt it!  I feel so bad for Jacob.  He just cries and fusses and looks at me like "make it stop!"  I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we will get a break soon.

And just one more thing, I'm curious who is reading now. Let me know who you are!  If you don't mind, leave me a comment or click "follow" at the side. ------>. Thanks!
 
Have a great weekend!
