Daddy time

Ryan was able to give Matthew his first bottle yesterday! Matthew took the bottle like a champ and we didn't have any problems with him not accepting the bottle. It was nice to see Ryan join in on the feeding bonding time too. We couldn't ask for a better baby!

Three Weeks!

Matthew turned three weeks old on Sunday. I can't believe that he is already three weeks old. So much has happened in the past few weeks, it has just flown by! He is eating a lot and getting bigger by the day. It is very fun to see him fill out his clothes and watch his tummy grow. He is still eating about every three hours or so during the day and about every four hours at night, which has been nice for me. Matthew is a little wiggler though. Every time we get him from a nap he has wiggled out of his inclined to sleep position holder and is at the bottom of his cradle. A few times his feet have been hanging out of the bottom! During the day we have been getting in a lot of tummy time to strengthen his neck and going for a lot of walks around our new neighborhood.

A growing little boy!

We went to the doctor yesterday and Matthew is dong very good! He is now 7 lbs. 10.5 oz. so he has gained all his weight back plus some. He gained about a pound in 10 days! We go back in early August for his first round of shots. Matthew is sleeping very well and eating very well too! He is a very good baby, we are very lucky!! He has had lots of new visitors at the new house and we are just spending our time getting to know each other. We are enjoying every moment of parenthood!

11 days old!

Wow, Matthew is now 11 days old. Things at the house are going good. We are slowly getting moved in and making the adjustment there along with the adjustment with Matthew. He is doing very well. He is sleeping very well and feeding very well too. When I get my computer back next week and my internet is up and running, I will post more photos of the little guy! Thank you for all your thoughts and messages. We will keep you posted!
