jackson: still waking up every 2 hours on his own. when will this stretch out?? he has about two times in the day where he's up for like 2 hours, thankfully his schedule is pretty consistent and predictable. we didn't have a schedule with mya but that's because we always let her sleep for the whole day. i'm still getting the broken sleep but again, my body is used to it. he already rolled over TWICE today and he rolled over a few times over the weekend. carlo was thinking it was a fluke but i think he has those muscles and that coordination down now. we're gonna have a runner on our hands soon enough! on my last update i said he'd roll over at about the 2 month mark but looks like he's hit that already. now we'll see when he can roll from stomach to back! physically he can also stand for longer when i pick him up - on Friday i swear he only stood for like 5-10 secs at a time, but just today (3 days later) he stood for a good 10-20 seconds. mentally he

 jackson is already able to be up for longer! usually he's been eating and sleeping right away, but lately he's been up more times of the day for about an hour or two at a time. he's also been really consistent with waking up every 2 hours on his own, and i think my body has adapted to this new schedule because i happen to get up every 60-90 minutes or so in the middle of the night, probably anticipating his feeds. at least i'm able to knock out pretty quickly between each feeding so i still get a break, and i try to get 1-2 naps per day.. his neck muscles are much stronger than Mya's! he moves his head ALOT when we're trying to burp him and i don't think we really even need to give him active tummy time because he moves so damn much. we think he's going to start rolling probably at about 2-3 months (that's usually a 4 month milestone) because he already likes moving. carlo said to me, "he's going to not be a baby much faster than mya"
