The Happy Boy

Andrew has had a couple of rough weeks, and we were starting to wonder if he was just going to be a fussy baby permanently. He would pretty much go through the cycle: Eat, Cry, Sleep, Eat, Cry, Sleep. The only good part was that the sleeping would take up most of the day and he has always been a good sleeper at night. He would usually decide to cry the most the second Tanner would walk in from work and continue for the remainder of the evening. We recognize that we are a little (okay a lot) wimpy when it comes to dealing with whiny infants. Clark was not a whiny baby at all, and when I hear stories from some of my friends about their colic babies, I want to cry just thinking about it. Even Andrew was nothing compared to some of the stories I have heard, but like I said, we are wimpy.

Then...

My mom came to visit! And after she left, Andrew has been more and more wonderful every day. So we think she did some special Grandma thing while she was here and cured him. She "says" that babies just go through phases and that he just needed to grow and mature...which may be true, but I prefer to think that Grandmas have special powers and they work their magic every time! So here are some pictures of our new happy, smiley and giggly Andrew.
