Sweet but a Handful

Don't let these baby blues deceive you

He looks all cute and innocent but once darkness falls, the crying starts! It's not just before bed either, he will wake up every 2 hours some nights! He was so good until he hit 3 months. What happened, you ask? Good question, if you figure it out let me know! This mamma needs/loves her sleep. I am also a cranky  sleeper, I tend to snap at Justin in the middle of the night. Example Friday night, early Saturday morning (3 a.m.) Justin was being nice and took Carter out to try to get him back to sleep. I could still hear the boy crying, so, annoyed at this point, I get out of bed and try to take Carter back, Justin  won't give Carter up and I mumble under my breath, "it's not like you get up or hear him when he cries multiple times through out the night. So just go back and sleep through all of this like you normally do." Not my shiniest of moments. I felt really bad in the morning, but I tend to snap in the middle of the night. We have been trying everything, rice cereal in his bottle, feeding him more than normal, letting him sleep in our bed, letting him cry (he can and will cry for an hour straight) you name it, we've tried it. I am praying this is going to come to an end soon. I am also hoping that my this means he will be an angel of a child when he is older! I deserve something for going a month with no sleep!

Pic Update

Being a photographer you would think I would have millions upon millions of pictures of Carter, sadly just on my phone! So I have started to break out the good camera so I can have some nice quality pics to put on my wall.  If I could I would just have my friend Suzana take pics for me, but sadly I left her 4 hours behind in Ft. Lauderdale. The good thing is it has pushed me to take more photos.  Here are just some random ones I took tonight.
 Justin is the one who can get him to fall asleep
I wish I would have gotten a picture of Justin reading his anesthesiology book to him while he was screaming bloody murder!  
 I believe he gets this face from me and of course the only thing
I can claim that this boy got from me are his eyes!



 This is one of my favorites, Carter's face says it all!

I love when babies play with their feet and Carter has finally found his feet!
