Harvick & Jarrett . 4 Weeks

4 weeks old

Harvick and Jarrett are doing great.  They seem to be doing well with their schedule, and are slowly sleeping a little more at night.  Currently, after eating, they go down about 10:00pm, and will sleep until 4:00ish.  Our goal is to have them sleep until 5:00am, at which point we will slowly start to move back their "bedtime" so that they finish eating by 9:00pm.

Both boys have incredibly strong necks!

Just before going to bed - in their new "Swaddle Me" blankets.  Because of their size, both boys are able to easily break out of a normal blanket, but still sleep best when swaddled.  I had seen these at BabiesRUs before, but always thought they were gimmicky, until I decided to just try it out - turns out they are AMAZING!!!

Both boys are consistently rolling from their stomachs to their backs.  Harvick did it back when he was 13 days old (Ryder could do it consistently from 5 days); but Harvick and Jarrett only started it consistently this past week.  According to several articles I've read, babies typically roll from stomach to back in their fifth month - I'm thinking that our boys all have size on their side, aiding them to do it more quickly.
