You have had lots of visits from family and friends including your girlfriend Blakely
During your first month:
Our sweet boy is eating about 4 ounces every 3 to 4 hours. Mommy breastfeed for the first two weeks and then had to stop for multiple reasons. You are now taking Simply Right Gentle formula and are doing wonderful with it. Most nights your eating every 3 to 4 hours, but we have had a couple of AMAZING nights when you have given mommy and daddy a 5 to 6 hour stretch of sleep during the night.  Your wearing a size 1 diaper...Pamper Swaddlers are our favorites! You wore newborn clothes for a couple of days but mainly have been wearing 0-3 months and started wearing some 3 month size clothes at about 2 weeks old.
You love chillin in your nap nanny
