4 WEEK OLD BABY!

Liam is 4 weeks old today! So hard to believe! Let’s see, what is life like with my little man? It is wonderful. He sleeps nicely at night—we get to bed by 9 or 10, and he doesn’t wake up until 1:30ish, then again at 4:30, and then sleeps until 7 or 8 (it depends on how long he goes until he pees!). During the day, we spend a LOT of time nursing… he always wants to nurse! He usually only goes an hour and a half or so? In between feedings, he hangs out in his pack n play (once a day) for quiet baby time, then we do tummy time, then we do gym mat time, then he sits in his swing while I eat lunch. The afternoon is a crap shoot—s ometimes he’ll sleep from 12-5 (with me waking him to feed). Othertimes he’ll fuss and want to be held. Today was a fussy afternoon. But now he’s sleeping peacefully in his pack n play! Today during tummy time he turned his head from one side to another! Yippee! I love this kid. I love to kiss his squishy little cheeks! I love to feel his milk breath on my face when he’s fallen asleep while I nurse him. (I feel it on my face because I’m usually covering him in kisses at this point!)
