The Stephs: Teething and Tummy Time!

The latest in our lives:

Jayden is officially a drooly-pants (a term that mommy affectionately uses). Right before Jayden's two month appointment we noticed that he was starting to drool A LOT. Now he drools A REALLY LOT. Seriously, I have no idea how a mouth can have so much saliva, because it's constantly swimming in his mouth, running down his face, and soaking our shoulders. But he is such a cute drooly-pants! (daddy says it too). The downside is that his gums are extremely sensitive at times and his crying escalates quickly, which we wish we were better at soothing. It's tough to see your little boy in pain and not be able to do much but hold him and wait for the medicine to take effect.

This morning was a fun one because for the first time Jayden rolled over! Jayden has not been a big fan of tummy time and so still struggles to move from his tummy to his back. However, he is now a pro going from his back to his stomach. For the last few days he has been super rolly while on his back, rolling onto his side but struggling to make the final push...until 6 this morning when he went back down after eating. Steph noticed that he was on his side so we watched as he finally got over the "hump" of his arm. Hopefully he can reverse it soon, since he's now rolled onto his tummy several times and then gets frustrated that he can't get back.

Jayden has a new toy, though he's still getting used to it. We were able to get a secondhand stroller for cheap and it's been fun taking him on walks. At times he seems to enjoy it but other times he seems confused why he's going backward and why daddy hits all the bumps that he sees.

For the moment our plans for the summer are unsure as we wait to see if I'm able to land an internship. It's a bit stressful but we keep reminding each other that Heavenly Father know what's best for us and we need to have faith to follow His will.

Now for the pics!
