At four weeks Greyson is the most content, happy thing! He started to spit up quite a bit and started to get some baby acne. His hair was also beginning to turn more red, and got me thinking he is a true red head!
Greyson is swaddled to sleep, sleeps with a binky, loves his soft blankie, and sleeps best in his rocker. In fact, he even sleeps there at night. He is a pretty good napper, although sometimes I do resort to the vibrator in the rocker or the swing to help.
He's starting to grow out of most of his newborn clothes, although the next size up is still a bit big. That awkward, in between stage.
Like I mentioned, he had a pretty bad case of baby acne for a few weeks. I felt so bad for him, because it really did look pretty terrible. We finally started to take him out of the house more (to church), and I was a bit embarrassed that most people got to meet him the first time looking like this. Of course, I still thought he was adorable, but he did look pretty sad.
He does the cutest little thing with his lip. It has this adorable dimple and he just naturally sucks it back into his mouth. His lip! I really do love it so much!
Unfortunately, he had his first bout of sickness at such a little age (6 weeks). He started out with a cold and then a cough. I can't bear to hear such a little baby cough like that, and he had a really rough day one day where he fussed and fussed, so I took him straight into the Dr. He ended up having STREP THROAT! Strep.throat! Its super rare that a baby can get strep, and my little boy had white puss pockets and a red throat. It broke my heart. Luckily once he got on an antibiotic he was able to kick it pretty quickly. The dr. also gave him some craddle cap shampoo too, and said it would help with the acne. And luckily it really did work!
Feeling better and no more yucky rash on face! Yay!!!
Yes, I feel a bit outnumbered, but I sure love my beautiful boys! Every. single. one. of. them.
