A Post of His Very Own

I haven't posted about Ben since Thanksgiving mostly because he just eats and sleeps but it's his turn for some face time!

Ben will be 3 weeks old tomorrow. He has changed so much in that short amount of time. It's hard for me to see his changes, but I do know that he's growing like a weed because his 0-3 pjs started out with plenty of wiggle room and he now fills them out nicely! He eats every 3 hours during the day, usually 4-5 ounces a feeding and then at night he's free to sleep until he's hungry. That's normally about 3-4 hours but every night I pray for longer! He also is awake more during the day. We try to keep him up for at least 30 minutes after each feeding and sometimes we're successful and sometimes he's just too sleepy to humor us. Kate and Maggie love when he's awake and usually yell "Mommy, you can see Benny's eyes!" (Yes, he's already being called Benny, Benny Boy, or Benner!)

I'll save the rest of his stats for his month post which will be in 10 days...hard to believe! For now, enjoy the pictures of sweet Ben!

Ben's first "real" bath after his umbilical cord fell off (yes,

I covered his privates but the washcloth also was

keeping him warm!)

Post bath - warm and content
