Not knowing

He slept a tiny bit in the Moses basket! He is almost too big for it!
My mom bought this outfit for him. Yesterday was the first time wearing it and I thought he looked so cute in it!
Mommy, why am I laying here for another picture?!

So I guess every mother has her challenges with not knowing or worrying about what to do for her baby. I think I have hit that point. Landon was loving his swing but yesterday he had a major diaper blow out. He woke up crying in his swing and when I went and got him out of it the poop that blew out of his diaper was coming through his outfit too. That had to be his worse diaper blow out ever! Ever since that happened he doesnt seem to really want to take naps in his swing...at least not like he was. So, he fusses and fusses and fusses and then when I give in, most of the time picking him up stops the fussiness. The thought has come across as to "how am I ever going to get him to sleep in his crib?!" I'm not even trying yet, and we were making progress with him putting himself to sleep in his swing and now its like he's telling me "Sorry mom, but I won't sleep anywhere else but with you!" I dont know if I should think he's not feeling good or if we are backsliding or what?! I guess I will struggle and hopefully this is just a small phase.
I guess I just shouldnt go by a time schedule and if I have to sleep on the couch with him for a couple more months then I guess Im just going to have to do that. I know that all babies have different time schedules in their lives than others and when they are ready...they're ready. I must say though, the times that I am actually able to lay on the bed and fall asleep I feel like I have never laid on anything better. I might as well be sleeping on a cloud. For now, I will just have to dream of the day when I can sleep in an actual bed, but at the same time I will continue to enjoy this time of sleeping on the couch with him (even though the couch isnt as comfortable) because I know that I will never get this time with him back.
