9 weeks

January 24th-30th

Loves: Nestling under my pillow, looking at the ceiling, covering his eyes with his blanket, and his zebra toy.


Hates: being swaddled, waiting even a minute to eat, or having his hands covered up by his blanket.


Eating: He eats 4.25 oz every three to four hours.


Sleeping: he is still waking to eat every 3-4 hours and is getting pumped breast milk. Monday night I gave him formula and swaddled him and he slept 7 hours but no such luck the next night.


Clothes: Grant is wearing 0-3 month and 3 month clothes. I've put away his newborn outfits. :(


Firsts: We went for a walk in the neighborhood and also slept 7 hours.


This Weeks Happenings:  We went for a walk in the neighborhood and he loved getting out of the house.  He slept mostly the whole way since he kept having to close his eyes because of the sunlight.  


Fun Facts:


*Grant loves to fuss at us with his paci in his mouth.  It always makes me laugh cause it seems like he is telling us off.


*I have started singing some songs to Grant each day.  He loves "The Wheels on the Bus" and "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes."


*We have been reading books to him as well.  He listens patiently and will look at the pictures.  I sure hope he will love to read when he gets older.


*Grant has a red birthmark on the back of his head.
