Swaddling, You are my friend!

Ok so there is this book called "The Happiest Baby on the Block" (Thanks Janette) and it has been wonderfully helpful! Now, Juani is not colicky, what he is, is whiny. Contrary to all what all the books say, my child, at a mere 2 months, is manipulative! (May Susan stand as my witness)

HE JUST WANTS TO BE HELD!

So...sleeping has become a problem, not so much at night, but during the day, as he only goes down for about 30 minutes before his large hands startle him awake again. According to the happy baby book, swaddling, though thought to be outdated, helps your little ones sleep longer...AND IT IS SOOOOO TRUE!! Juan just woke up from an hour and half nap!!! AN HOUR AND A HALF!!! I was able to make him three pairs of pants and a new winter PJ get up! (cold weather is officially moving in) The greatest thing is, he woke up, ate, and went right back down!
I figure that a miracle of that statue is well deserving of confirmation. Though it seems like some sort of antiquated torture technique, swaddling is my new best friend.
By the way, here are a few of our latest pictures...

Tell me, if you dare, that he is not the cutest darn thing you ever did see!!!
