Andrew 7 weeks old

January 15, 2007
Andrew is a little over 7 weeks old.. Wow how time flies. He is developing his personality everyday. He is smiling more and more too. Today is his big sister's 10th Birthday! He slept through her birthday dinner last night. He is now a 100% formula fed. Breastfeeding was really hard on both of us since he was in the NICU for 2 weeks and unable to try the breast until he was almost 2 weeks old. He prefers the bottle. (it's easier) I pumped every 3 hours for the past 6 weeks. I felt that I needed to spend time with him instead of being hooked up to the breastpump when I was home from work. He is doing great on formula. It was a hard decision but I know it is the right one for us.

Happy 10th Birthday Christine!!

Andrew 6 weeks old

January 2, 2007
Andrew is getting bigger by the day. He is determined to hold his head up. He fights us to hold his bottle too. Wow the time really goes by fast. He was 6 weeks old yesterday. He is sleeping about 3-4 hours at a time. I went back to work on Jan 2. Chris now stays home full time with Andrew. He is enjoying himself. Sometimes they come up and have lunch with me. It makes it nice to get to see them during the day.
