Swing along, sweet chariot
Noah's passed out in his swing, and he is so cute. At least twenty zillion times a day I look at him and my heart feels like it will implode from the - cuteness? joy? love? some combination anyway.
Normally I'm not a huge fan of using the swing as a soothe-all, but he's been gassy again since about 3 am, and the motions and uprightness of it really seems to help. I tried the Snugli and it went okay for a bit, but then he got fussy. So swing it is, even if it means less contact with my body.
We'll have to see about the walk this afternoon; I really would like to have one, but that's more 'sit in seat' time. What's a way to gauge that anyway? I've sort of kept it to one in-seat activity a day, but I really have no clue what I'm doing there. Except he likes it and is sooo cute and hey, another baby gift well in use. It will do for now.
Oops he's waking up now and he looks so serious. He's figuring out where he is and chatting to make sure I'm here. And here I am chatting back, but I'd better go.

Hiya Shandra hun,
I'm not sure if it will help at all (or whether you can even get it in the States) but when I was growing up and right through all my brothers and sisters lives, my grandmother and mother used something called Gripe Water for gas.
My sister was especially bad and used to get really crabby when the Gripe water ran out or got lost in the chaos that was home :-)
I believe that many of my friends back home in South Africa still use it, and if I can find it over here in the UK, I'll let you know and post you some if you have a postal address that you don't mind disclosing (obviously I don't expect your address so whatever you'd feel comfortable with).
Regards
Alley
