10 Days Young

    Liam is 10 days old today and he now weighs 7lbs 7oz! He is gaining weight fast and eating more and more every day it seems! He went from eating 1 1/2 to 2oz of milk every 3 hours to about 3 every 2 and a half hours! He has a good appetite :) I also no longer have to set my alarm for every 3 hours during the night to wake him up for feeds, he has his schedule set all by himself and he lets me know when he needs to eat! Even though he has to be fed throughout the night, he is still easy! I feed him, change his diaper and hold him till he is asleep or almost asleep for just a few minutes and then he sleeps just fine until it is time for him to feed again. He is also trying very hard to hold his head up all by himself, this guy is going to be so independent he is already working on it and he is not even two weeks old yet!
   This past weekend was the weekend for visitors! Auntie Tito (Kaylee) and Anabel were in town from Cincinnati and Chicago and they were able to visit for a while on Saturday! Liam of course was very well behaved and enjoyed being held all afternoon. He stayed awake for a while and was really fighting off the sleep so he could pay attention to his guests, but of course he passed out, as he should. Veronica and Catherine were also able to stop by to visit Liam on Sunday. He is a very popular little guy! Veronica helped me in the beginning stages of making the chair rail stripe in Liam's nursery so it was great that she was able to come back to see Liam in his nursery that she helped make possible :) All in all, things are continuing to go well and Liam is growing up so fast! Hopefully I will have more to share soon - he is doing something different every day!

All stretched out looking like an old man in his high pants!
Sitting properly with his legs crossed
Such a cutie... with a little milk in the corner of his mouth!
