Bragging

I obviously think highly of Sean, but I guess so do the ladies at daycare!
A bunch of them seem to think he's the happiest baby around, hardly ever cries, always happy, will sleep through just about anything, and is even happy when other babies are upset.
Almost from day one they said he took to daycare a lot better than most.
Just last week one of his teacher's told me he's the youngest in his room and is more physically advanced then some of the other babies.

Go Sean! Momma so proud :)

Starting to move

He's starting to roll over more consistently now..mostly from back to tummy but he will also do tummy to back, just not as much right now. We are also starting to need to strap him into his chair now b/c he's squirming out.  When he's on his back he moves around the floor pretty good by doing a sort of dolphin move.

He's definitely not crawling yet, but he's sort of getting close. he has the legs and but down, but he doesn't seem to have the arm strength yet.

Skin History Update

He finally saw this doc yesterday. I guess the rash he has all over his body is actually eczema too. So, we have to start him on steroid cream :(. Two types, one for his body and a lower strength one for his face. And we have to use Aquaphore on top of that. 2-3 times a day. So basically we are the farthest away from natural remedies that I can think of. But I can't seem to find any natural remedies that work for his case. The exceptionally cold winter we are having is making things more difficult to manage. Also, unfortunately doc thinks it could take up to 2 months to clear up.

Holy Pimples Batman!

I'm breaking out like crazy, almost fast enough that I can see it happen.

Also, Sean is still in 3mon onsies (he's almost 4months old) but he's in 6month jammies (anything w/ legs on them). We seem to be getting his eczema under control with the use of California baby calendula cream. It's not gone, but it's looking much better. It's pricey, but good. I gave a jar to daycare since they are around him so much.

Sean's (rough) skin history

He was born with extremely dry skin - supposedly due to being nearly "overcooked".
Once he was done shedding like a snake..he developed baby acne.
Now that the baby acne is gone, he has developed what seems to be eczema and a general rash.
We have just tended to let things run their course, but now we are trying to manage.. I am trying to keep him moisturized as much as possible and put my essential oils on him. We are also going to start washing his clothes in a gentile detergent.
Oh yeah, he also malls his head with his finger nails so bad that his head is bleeding and full of cuts. We also tried to manage that but it's getting out of control. He has officially lost his hand privileges and we are keeping mittens on him at all times with the exception of gym time. So, i'm also working on keeping those healed. They do seem to heal pretty well/fast, but they just keep reappearing.

 I hope things will just run their course and we don't have a long battle with allergies and things.

Hair Loss

I thought it wasn't going to come! The hair loss has started this week. It's not too bad right now though. More than normal, but nothing scary.
