At 3 weeks

Okay these smiles are for real! Last night Russ was talking to him and he was nice and content. What we know about him at 3 weeks is:

• he is a little stinker and by that I mean he farts stinky farts all the time. I find it endearing. He doesn't have the new baby smell, he has the fart smell.
• He is a big boy weighing in at 11lbs 5 oz
• he is getting better with eating without spitting up and it does not take as long to burp him as it used to.
• he is not the best sleeper but he has done a 4 hour stretch once or twice. In fact last night he slept for 31/2 hours, woke and ate and then went back to sleep for 3 1/2 hours. I feel so rested!

• His brother and sister love him and can't keep their hands off him and he handles it so well. It doesn't seem to bother him to have their little fingers always touching, rubbing, and poking him.
• He likes the mam paci better than the soothie.
• He sleeps best in the swing or in my arms.

• He loves to be swaddled
• He has baby acne that I wish would go away.
• He has had a gooey eye but breast milk is clearing that up.
• He looks more like William everyday. He is our big boy and we love him.
