UPDATE

Its been some time since I've taken time to write about our precious one, that we love so stinking much. So let me try to fill you in. He's just perfect. Dan Michael is a very easy going baby. If he is crying its b/c he is need of a diaper change or another feeding. This baby can eat. At 4 weeks, he sometimes takes as much as 5 ounces. Amazing, right. Dan and I do the "feed on demand" thing, whatever he wants or needs he gets. He takes his bottles cold, which amazes people. I don't think I knew any better from the get go, so that's what we did. (He is so awesome, and I am so proud. If you can't already tell.) He wakes up every 3-4 hours at night to eat. It doesn't bother me as much as it does Dan. Dan gets a bit frustrated at night. I find that as soon as he finishes his bottle he goes right back to sleep but Dan thinks otherwise. Yep, he's still on the breast milk. I pump and we give him bottles, this has really worked out for us. I'm guilty of letting Dan Michael sleep on my chest at night. I just can't help it, its so peaceful for both of us. Daddy-O fusses every night about it, and he's right Dan Michael needs to sleep in his own bed. Bath time, is a blast for the baby. He loves floating in the water and he has not once put up a fight about water in his face or rinsing his hair. I bathe him in the tub with me, while Dan handles the hand off and the drying. I guess I really can't brag much more, its getting out of control. I will keep you all posted as we make more progress and try new things.

Lets see what else...

About me. I love being a Mommy more then I ever expected. I never knew I would be able to love my child this much! I love to snuggle with him and I never want to put him down. So when people talk about Dan Michael being a baby that needs to be held, you can point the finger at me for that. I love to take him for walks in City Park. He knocks out, but we still have a good time. I know I'm going to spoil him, I just cannot help it. I look forward to seeing him grow and I'm a bit sadden by the fact that its already happening.

About Dan. He's a great Daddy. He adjusting every day. I find that things don't come as easy for him, but I think its his lack of patience. He loves Dan Michael very much and I think he looks forward to him getting just a little bit bigger. I think the baby resembles Dan but has my temperament. I hope it stays that way.

That's it for now. We will keep you posted!
