The Swaddle Breaker

He may never be known for his brilliance or his athletic ability or even for his chili cooking skills, but he will forever go down in the books as an expert swaddle breaker.

It's kind of a vicious cycle anyway... he doesn't sleep well when he isn't swaddled because he flings his hands around, hitting his head and waking himself up.  However, there isn't a swaddle he hasn't escaped.

How do you get a baby to sleep that isn't swaddled?
How do you keep a baby swaddled that isn't asleep?

However, it's pretty darn fun to watch him at his craft.  The best part is when that first hand gets free; nothing but raw pleasure on his face.

Sometimes in the morning I go in and he has the blanket down around his ankles.

And, don't think we aren't swaddling correctly.  Ray's watched youtube videos and takes the challenge seriously.

And, don't think we aren't doing it tight enough.  We've tried tag-teaming it in order to not get a millimeter of slack.

The facts are simple... our son has a gift.
