Getting into a Rhythm

    Now that we have been home for 10 days, we are starting to develop a routine. Quinlan stays up with Grammy till 2-3 AM, and usually falls asleep on her for 30 min to an hour after his last bottle feed. He then moves to the co-sleeper in mom and dad's room until waking up around 4-5 AM to feed again. Mom then brings him into the living room, changes him and gives him another bottle. Mom then usually stays up with him until 615-630 AM when dad gets up to chant. Quinlan sits beside him in the baby boucher seat until dad needs to get ready for school an hour later at which point mom takes him back. He is usually pretty awake for about an hour at this point so mom will sometimes place him over the bobby to work on his ability to lift his head.
      Grammy then sleeps until 9-10 AM and watches him when she gets up so mom can shower and get ready, and as of yesterday even go for a small jog. Quinlan then spends the morning & afternoon eating and sleeping usually getting up every 3 hours to feed and be changed. By mid afternoon, Quinlan will get suited up and placed in his car seat which snaps into his stroller and we will go for a walk or an errand.
       We then return home and unpack any items we picked up, prepare dinner and wait for dad to get home from school. Quinlan then falls asleep on dad after dinner and peacefully rests until his evening feed around 8-9 PM. He has been recently waking up for another alert hour around 7 PM.

      Mom and dad will sometimes take turns making lying with him on the floor, allowing him to stretch and look around. Then mom and dad go to sleep and Quinlan again stays up with Grammy.
       The routine will have to change when Grammy leaves on Sunday. The plan is for dad to take the night shift, but it'll be an adjustment for all and Grammy will be missed!
