Sleeping

Most people have heard the Offspring's "Come Out and Play." Connor seems to be asking Jackson that more and more often. In the past couple of weeks, we started noticing Connor's attempt to reposition himself closer to Jackson.

They start off on their sheet savers and Jackson is in his crib wedge and swaddle...

And, the boys end up in all kinds of different positions. Connor has moved from vertical to horizontal and is reaching out, a/k/a baby kicking in the swaddle me, to touch his big brother.  Jackson, of course, is not ready for this at 3 or 4 a.m.  when Connor starts the moving and usually wakes up crying.

Recently, I went in to check on Jackson and his head was dancing (courtesy of Connor). The boys were in a T position (similar to how they were positioned in my belly) and Connor was relentless in his energy and directing his feet at Jackson.  It was one of the funnier things that I have seen with the boys and it didn't surprise me that Jackson was crying (not the best way to be woken up).

We haven't been able to figure out how long that it takes Connor to get into these positions.  Most often for Connor, the preferred position is to be laying right next to Jackson.

What we do know is that he is ALL smiles in the a.m. or when he wakes up from his naps and it is one of the sweetest things about him!

The most common is the V position.
