Nap? I don't need no stinkin nap

This week, Davis has decided that naps are overrated. For the three days he has gone to daycare this week, he has napped for a total of 3 minutes. This has made for short and stressful evenings with a fussy baby. However, it has been exceptionally easy to put him to sleep at night. Monday he slept for almost 12 straight hours, but Tuesday he was up at 12:30, 3:00 and 4:00.

In other Davis news:

• He has yet another cold. He is stuffy and congested again, but doesn't have a temperature.
• His top front teeth are coming in. One is almost through and we can see the other under the surface. He is handling it very well. Other than a bad night a few days ago, the biggest affect has been a huge amount of drool.
• He can play hide and seek (8 month old version). Kristen has been hiding behind the footstool and Davis goes around looking for her. When they meet, everybody is rewarded with a huge smile and laugh.
• His progress towards walking is remarkable. It seems like he has gone from needing a lot of support to stand to just using us for balance. Tonight, while we were playing he was just barely using me for support while he stood.
• His hair is coming in more and more every day. He is so very blond that it is still hard to see, but he has up to about two inches of hair on the back of his head.

Today, Kristen worked from home to avoid commuting in the snow and discovered that Lilly is far more active than Domino. Lilly changed sleeping positions three times (car seat, cat tree, and bookshelf) while Domino spent the entire day in the rocker.

Last night, I got to go over to my friend Rob's house to play a board game and chat about technology / work while Kristen stayed with Davis. Rob had some great insights and thoughts about technology and I'm going to be thinking long and hard about where I spend my energy at work.

The rest of this week looks like a pretty normal one for us. This weekend is Kristen's birthday and we've got some fun plans. Other than that, we'll probably take some pictures, spend lots of time playing with Davis and if the weather cooperates, get outside for a little while.
