Not sure where you are weighing in these days, somewhere in the high 8 to low 9 pounds. We will get all these measurements at your one month appointment with the doctor.
You are eating every 2-3 hours and sometimes in the evening you like to cluster feed at around an hour and a half. You are starting at your brother's preschool in 2 weeks so we have started working on you taking a bottle. So far I've tried twice and you've been pretty finicky about it. You definitely do not like cold milk! We will keep working on it, daddy is so excited to get to feed you too.
During the night you are still sleeping in our room. You are in the rock and play next to our bed and will stay there for now. You seem to wake up (at least) every 3 hours on the dot to eat...sometimes earlier and you need help going back to sleep, sometimes your just starving. You teased us when we first brought you home with 5-6 hour stretches and even 7 one night. We will probably keep you in our room until we hit those longer stretches again.
You have already started smiling at us! I try to keep you awake as long as I can during the day after you eat and you love to lay and look around. We have started getting out the baby toys and you like to follow the noise and you even smile at some of them. Braylen loves laying on the blanket with you and doing tummy time. He asks me to help him get his head lined up just perfectly with yours.
I'm trying to soak up our last two weeks together before I go back to work and hold you every minute I can get.
**...and Braylen you have officially been a big brother for a month now! You are doing great with Macy and loving on her. We are working on controlling your craziness when Macy is near but when you are aware of her you are so gentle. You love to go rock her and when she cries in the car you lean over and sing to her.
You have started to act out against me a little bit. Your daddy and I assume its because I am spending more time with Macy to feed her and stay home with her. You try to tell me that you only listen to daddy and that only daddy can do stuff. We are working on it and I think we will be back to normal soon. I also think our mommy/Braylen date will help too!
Happy 1 month kiddos!!
