Newborn Photos from Auntie Wendy



Hard to believe, it's been almost 7 weeks (Wednesday)! Andrew was weighed yesterday: 14 lbs
and measured: 24 1/2"!!
And last night, he had an all-time record for staying asleep: 7 hours, 20 minutes!!
It's tiring work, growing this fast~!

Sanity Breaks for Mom


Yesterday, for the first time, he took the bottle! Granted, it was Mommy's beverage, but it worked!! Now we'll see if I can make an 'escape' one of these days.... He actually took 2 bottles, 1 in the a.m., when I was experimenting, and then at his last feeding, with Dad. Both times I had to "step in" with the real thing to give a little extra, and perhaps, reassurance.
Ahhh, the swing~ This, as it turns out, has been a "life saver"! I can now do things like cook, eat, shower, run down to the laundry room- basically, leave baby unattended for lengths of time, without him fussing! I set up the radio on classical, 99.5 f.m. so he's getting a music education at the same time. In fact, he's in there right now, as I update the blog! Thank-you to Auntie Wendy for letting us borrow it! :D
