Our little man has only been with us for 5 weeks, but already he is changing and growing. These pictures make him look big to me....not so "newborn" anymore. He is doing great. He is a good baby...more content during his awake times and is willing to sit by himself in his swing or bouncy chair. I feel like everytime I blink it is time to feed him again. He eats 3-4 oz. every 2-3 hours. He is doing pretty good at nights...still getting up a bit. Last night he went down at 9:30, ate at 12:30, then 3:00, woke at 4:20, ate at 6:00, and woke for the day at 7:00 am. Not too bad for a 5 week old (I guess, you forget from one child to the next). My help has left (THANKS again to my mom and my mother-in-law) and I am flying solo with both kids....which is going well. I love these kids, but they definitely keep me busy. People tell me "these are the best times of your life", and "enjoy them while they are small"...and I just bite my tongue. Yes, there are great times...and then there are very trying times when I just want to get away...and have some me time. I want to ask those people if they mind babysitting until they are both 18. All joking aside, I love my family and wouldn't trade them for anything.
