Do you remember how I said before I don't follow all the rules? Well, one of the "rules" is never use a blanket with your baby. We've used a blanket since he's been about a month old. The reason is so they don't pull it over their heads. Which makes sense, except my baby sleeps on his tummy. A few times now I've started to worry as he's been able to grasp the blanket.
But lately, Jacob has created a new ability. He rolls to both sides and then back to his tummy. By doing this, he gets the blanket wrapped around him. Really, he looks like a burrito! He keeps his hands out, so he's still able to fling his pacifier back behind the crib to lands unknown. I love watching the different ways he sleeps. His hands have always been over his head, but sometimes the land on a crib slat or outside the crib.
There is just something so wonderful and peaceful about a sleeping baby. The sweet way they breathe in and out, the fact that they're no longer crying. It's just wonderful! I could watch Jacob sleep all day long. Except then he would either wake up or I would fall asleep. And we all know babies don't sleep all day, ever!
What is your favorite part of watching a baby sleep??
Still looking for guest writers! Please let me know if you're interested!!
