Here’s recent video clip of A eating from a bottle: He’s actually pretty good at it. Sleeping on the other hand needs some work. Apparently, there’s this whole “Four Month Sleep Regression” phenom. Here’s a pretty accurate description, from the Daily B: I’ve traveled in enough mom circles to know about this phenomenon called the […]
