One month already! This first month has gone incredibly fast and incredibly slow all at the same time. You seem to function in a different way when you get such interrupted sleep with the highs and lows of the overwhelming love you have for this new child and stress of all the crying! A little bit about my boy...
- He continues to eat every 3 hours during the day and 4-5 hours at night. He will sometimes go right back to sleep and sometimes needs more help to fall back asleep.
- He is only breastfeeding at this point because he won't take a bottle. We are going on a week of trying a bottle every day with little improvements. It usually takes a total of 30 minutes to feed him.
- He is awake more during the day which initially meant being fussy, but now has more content moments and will spend some time on the play mat and on his tummy.
- He still sleeps a lot and alternates between napping on his tummy, in the swing, in his new bouncer, and in our arms.
- His one month stats:
- Weight: 12 lbs - 95%
- Height: 22 3/4 inches - 88%
In big brother news, Dylan still adores Charlie. Every night before he goes to bed, he makes sure to say good night to Charlie, even when we forget. "Kiss...kiss," is his request. There are times I have to remind Dylan to be gentle or that Charlie isn't big enough to play with toys, but it isn't often. Charlie is a great addition to our family.

He is so handsome! I love how he tried to sneak a little bit of his cake on his one month birthday! ;)
