favorite time.





We have a new favorite time with Archer...bath time. I get to enjoy him in the mornings (Colin is already by the time Archer wakes up), but bath time is a time all three of us get to spend together. We usually wait until he starts nodding off in the evenings after keeping him awake for a good 2-3 hour stretch, then we take him in the bathroom and put him in his tub. He loves it (FINALLY) and is completely relaxed. Sometimes he talks and smiles, other times he simply enjoys it. So that's it, our enjoyable unwindable routine. Shortly after the bath he is fed and drifts off into a peaceful sleep. I think/hope we are on the homestretch for sleeping "all night." Two nights ago we put him down at 10 and he woke at 4am to eat, back to sleep, and up for the day at 8am.

Attached is a picture of him in his bath...what a HANDSOME man. The picture doesn't really make this obvious but Archer's pediatrician thinks he eyes will be blue for sure (I really hope they are). At his 8 week checkup he was 12lbs 24.5 inches long (the 90%tile for height and 50%tile for weight).

Ok, off to bed while the sleeping is good.

Love the Kimbles
