One of my goals while at the cabin was to start giving you a daily bottle of breastmilk! So yesterday I cleaned all the supplies and pumped for the first time. Then your dad actually gave you your first bottle. You of course took it like a champ! I had read that most newborns take about 3 ounces so that is what I pumped! You finished off the 3 ounces easily and I think you probably would have taken more! Your dad was so happy to be able to feed you because this is something he hasn't been able to do! I was excited because now I know I can always use a bottle as a back up if I want to be gone for a longer period of time or if I need a night off!
This was after you were done feeding, cuddled up in one of the blankets your Grandma Helen made you!
Here is a close up of your dad feeding you your first bottle!
Proud dad!
You made it 4 hours again last night, followed by two 3 hour blocks, which felt great! I actually got a fair amount of sleep, so thank you for that!
You are in your swing right now just hanging out! We are going to go for your first cabin walk this afternoon. I am trying to convince your Grandma to come so I can run a little!
In other news your newborn pictures are up! They turned out so great. You have already changed so much from then. Your face has filled out!
