This month Xander started laughing, it is the best sound ever! He also found his feet and will play happily with toys for 20 or 30 minutes. He "talks" and babbles and screeches just for fun. He can't sit up by himself yet but he tries and he likes to be propped in a sitting position where he can see what is going on. He is also trying hard to turn from back to front, but can't do it yet. He is an absolute joy and a happy, easy baby during the day. We were having a bit of trouble with him arching his back and crying in pain while I would feed him, but our pediatrician put him on Zantac and he stopped! Sleep is our biggest struggle - we are all exhausted. My little sweetie pie just likes my arms too much! I have tried all kinds of gentle methods to get him to sleep, none have worked. Our pediatrician told me to let him cry it out and as much as I hate that idea, we can't continue to survive on an hour of sleep at a time, so we may have to try it.
We are flying to Texas in a week for Christmas and Xander will get to meet his uncles and grandpa! We are so excited about that! Christmas is so fun with a kid. :-)
