7 Weeks!

Little Maddox hit 7 weeks yesterday! Yay! He is such a chubby little bunny. He has been sleeping GREAT at night! The nighttime fussiness is pretty much gone, and from the moment we started a little bit of a routine, his nights have been awesome! We typically do a bath at 7:00pm, then nurse, and have him in his swing (he sleeps in his swing next to our bed) between 7:30 and 8pm. He usually wakes up 3 hours after bedtime to nurse. Then he will sleep anywhere from 4 to 6 hours (lately its been 6!) and nurse again. Then goes back to sleep for another 2-3 hours before getting up "for the day".
During the day, he wakes up between 7 and 8, is up for an hour or so, then takes about a 3 hour nap. The afternoons are still trying to work themselves out. Right now he is awake off and on and nurses whenever he wants in the afternoon without much of a routine. The rest of our routine came really naturally, so I am not going to try and force an afternoon routine until he starts to develop one on his own. They say the afternoon naptime develops a little later anyways. But so far, things are going awesomely!
