We have had a pretty busy week around here, so much that we really don’t have too many photos of new things, just lots in the car seat!

Griffin continues to sleep well in his room at night. We place him on his back or side, and by morning we find him on his tummy. He’s developed a new routine of waking up poo-y every morning, just like clock work. He has been waking between 6:30-7:30 am pretty regularly. We’re still working on the daytime naps and his being able to sooth himself back to sleep as he is regularly waking 15-20 mins into his nap.

The week was filled with plenty of activity getting prepared for our first week-long family vacation to the beach! After much packing, we left home around 11 am Friday. We were off on a great start – Finn slept for 4 hours straight in his car seat while we drove along. He was great in the car the entire time and was quite pleasant even when he wasn’t sleeping. He didn’t really sleep very well during the day Saturday so we’re hoping to turn things around once we get settled in. He has been a stellar sleeper at night, logging 8 hours Friday night and just slept almost 9 hours last night.  The preceding 6 hours weren’t filled with much rest for our little guy.

I rode in the backseat with Finn almost the entire trip while Kevin drove. Finn ate on the go and he was a champ!

Once we arrived in Ocean Isle we stopped at Sharky’s, a restaurant we liked from our visit last year, for a late pizza lunch. There Griffin was held for the first time, by a couple of women we met at the restaurant who sat next to us. We are in the south where everyone is quite friendly so she just put her arms out and said “come over here!”. It was cute and despite being over tired they had fun holding him.

See you next week!
