Well, we've hit another milestone. Wyatt is 4 weeks old today and where has the time gone. Our little man continues to amaze us as he grows and changes (it seems like) every day. We are still in awe that we have a child. David and I will still look at each other at the oddest moments and say " Oh my gosh, we have a baby!". I must say we have turned into quite the set of parents. At first we were scared to death and now we have adjusted and are just going with the flow. Going with the flow is now my daily motto. I tried putting him on the Baby Wise schedule last week and it didn't work too well. I had to remind myself that it's ok if he doesn't want to do the schedule yet and he will eventually sleep through the night. Well to our amazement he did go 6 hours last night without a bottle! Hopefully that's just the beginning. Today we are on a feeding schedule and it seems to be going well. He had a checkup yesterday and weighs 8 lbs and 11 ozs. The doctor said he's gaining weight like crazy. And I said because all he wants to do is eat and stay up and play. He does not sleep as much as you would think during the day. He is very active and wants to check out everything that's going on. And I have tried every tactic to get him to sleep and he just doesn't want to. The doctor said some babies like to sleep all day and some want to play. We have a player! I have 3 1/2 weeks left before I have to go back to work and I am enjoying every minute I can with Wyatt. I am so thankful that when I go back he will come with me to work. We are very excited the Ms. Jessica will be his first teacher!
