So I’ve decided to try altering my diet to see if it will affect Shai’s eczema. Since it’s hard to use the aquaphor on his face which makes his acne break out, I thought I’d try another alternative. I did some reading online and found that diet can affect a breast feeding baby’s eczema. It [...]

Shai is flexing his fist and starting to grab onto things. Not consciously but never the less it’s the next step!! And more exciting is the fact that he has GIGGLED for his mama!! Yay!! I was so excited. He did it 2 days ago while I was playing w/ him. Standing him on his [...]

Well, wouldn’t you know it… as soon as I documented Shai’s sleep pattern a couple of posts ago, it changed!! I think that very same day in fact!! He is now staying awake a bit more during the day. About 30-60mins of awake time b/w naps. He’s still doing the long nap mid-day (2-3hrs). But [...]

Shai’s eye color is starting to change. They were super dark when he was born and they are getting lighter now. But still a dark gray-blue. Reminds me of Oden as an infant. I’m starting to think Shai may end up w/ the same beautiful eye color as Oden… light gray-blue
