6 weeks old

Our little buddy is 6 weeks old.  Lately, he has been giving out smiles and coos and he took his first two naps in his crib this week!  Of course, he did great. 

Our little buddy has had his first bout with illness, unfortunately, a week ago.  Big sister got croup (eek!) and the germs spread to our little bitty (eek! eek!).  We ended up in the Rex ER, where Benjamin received an oral steroid to help him out a little.  After 3 more days of the steroid, some sleepless nights, and mom getting sick on top of everything....he recovered, praise God.


We're slowly introducing the bottle and formula each day.  He prefers to breast feed, but is picking up the bottle nicely.  Benjamin is still sleeping pretty well at night, too.  He goes down between 8:30 and 9:30 and sleeps until about 2 and then is up again at 5 and then closer to 7 for the day.  

 Loving our sweet boy.  He's such a blessing - and a snuggle :)
