Weight: We weighted him on our scale this weekend and he was 12.5 with a dry diaper!
Health: Nothing new here... we go for his 2 month appointment next week.
Sleep: We have made big strides forward in this department and after much research we have found out own little magic routine... We started stretching the middle of the night feeding out last week and have been successful... first we stretched him to 5 hours... now he is going 7+!!! He stirs a few times in the middle of the night and depending I'll let him sooth himself back to sleep or go in and give him his pacifier but for the most part this is our night time schedule... 8-9ish 4.5 oz bottle then book and bedtime, 10:30-11ish 3.5 oz dream feed bottle then back to bed (he doesn't wake up for this feeding), then 6:00-7:00ish 4.25 oz. bottle. We are thankful for this extra sleep and pray it continues!
Social: Very social these days... super interactive and loves to talk... his most talkative time is first thing in the morning! So Saturday and Sunday mornings we find ourselves in bed playing and cooing back and forth as a family of 3! This has become my favorite time of the day!
Diet: Mommas Milk and one formula bottle a day! We are still at 4.25 oz. during the day with a 4.5 bottle before bed.
Clothes: 0-3 Month clothes and size 1 diapers, but I think we will be moving up to size 2 diapers very soon!
Baby Gear Loves: I am still very much obsessed with the new tracker we found last week... http://www.trixietracker.com. It has been a HUGE help in keeping Ben on a routine and everything in order.
Crying: Since he has been sleeping longer at night he doesn't fuss as much any more at all... again only when he is hungry or tired.
Likes: Loving his activity mat more and more! It is a lifesaver for his entertainment when I'm pumping in the morning!
Postpartum: I'm still not working out... but hope to start next week. And my goal this week is to get up and take Ben for walks in the morning... before it gets too hot! Texas summers are no place for afternoon walks with a little one.
Special visit from our good friends Brad and Skyler!
Milestones: Sleeping 7+ hours at night! This is HUGE for a momma how loves her sleep!!! Very proud of our little man and hope to keep this sleeping going!
