Still Crying to Sleep

Javier somehow cried for another 30 minutes before settling down again. It still irritates me so much every time I listen to him cry. But he won't go to sleep by himself without crying him out. *sigh*

Joyce

BFFs

Vanessa asked who his best friend is, and Joaquin said Javier!

Javier, for his part is now fully in brother infatuation mode. He almost just wants to play with whatever Joaquin is playing with, the iPad, Lego trains, etc. Distracting him a similar toy doesn't work. He gets so excited, he screams when biting Joaquin's bear (when his older brother is not looking).

Back to CIO (Day 3&4)

Javier cried for less than 5 minutes in the last two days and practically slept until 6 am without waking up! Wow!

Joaquín: Papá, no seas tontito

Back to CIO (Day 2)

24 minutes which is 30 minutes less than last night.  I hope the trend continues because it is excruciating for me to hear him shriek!

First time getting blood drawn!

For an allergy test.  He actually didn't cry, and waited stoically! For the first needle and batch, at least.  By the time they had to do a second one because they didn't get enough, he became anxious and cried, and was whiny for an hour afterwards. Still, very brave boy.

Back to CIO

Javier hasn't been sleeping well. We decided to start the CIO again. After much crying and protesting and heart breaking for mamu, he fell asleep after 54 minutes on Day 1.
