Yes, my kid goes to bed at 10:15pm. We've been trying to amend this, but he just doesn't want to go to sleep any earlier than 10pm! On the one hand it's great because we can take him to dinner with us, have guests at the house at night, etc. But it's a curse because Matt and I don't get any alone time at the end of the day, as we are so exhausted by the time he goes down that we pass out as soon as he does. He also has been cluster-feeding at night and eating very little in the mornings.
Things I want to remember:
- Loves his green frog "lovie"
- Changed his bottle preference from wide-mouth to regular at 14 weeks.
- He can sit upright (when propped with the boppy) and stay that way for 20 minutes unassisted (when he's not squirming like crazy - another new skill).
- Relying less on the paci for bedtimes/naptimes
- Rolls easy back to side.... I almost always find him in this position when he wakes up in the morning.
- Loves taking baths and kicks in the water like crazy
- Lots of coos and sounds - "Ah-boo" is his most common "word".
- Laryngomalacia seems to be subsiding. It's louder when he's excited and taking quicker breaths.
- Loves blonds. Almost always smiles at them when they hold him, even if he doesn't know the person (hubba hubba)!
- Likes watching football on TV - cries when a commercial comes on!
- Still wearing size 1 diapers
- Just now fitting into size 0-3 clothing
- Starting to chew on everything
Dom and I at the Elbow Room, DH and I's favorite bar/old stomping ground.

What a cutie pie! You'll be so grateful later when you are able to look back on these little things. I really wish I had kept track like this.
Don't worry about the bedtime, Audry was like this too- baby night owl. Ever since about 7 months, she got into a better schedule, asleep between 7-7:30 and sleeps for 12 solid hours. It's true what they say about babies - "Early to bed, late to rise" Everyone I know with similar aged kids, puts them to bed at 9pm trying to get them to sleep in, and then they wake up at 5am...
Don't worry. This too shall pass and you will get more alone time soon. He will also go to bed earlier at some point! enjoy his every second!
Such a cutie! He looks like he enjoys the Elbow Room, too!
4 daytime naps? Whoo hoo!
I'm lucky if I get a good hour nap out of Warren once a day. lol
