On Wednesday, Liam turned 2 weeks old. I can't believe how fast time has gone by. Liam is such a good Baby. He is very content and is on a pretty predictable schedule. He eats pretty much every 3 hours. Nursing was very difficult in the begining and due to weight issues and Jaundice we started supplimenting with formula and I began pumping. I have started trying to do some nursing with him and he is doing well. I figure better for him to get it from me than me have to hook up to a pump. He does get formula at night because, sorry I refuse to pump in the middle of the night. I just won't do it. He actually does really well at night. We put him down for bed when we go to bed and he usually wake around 12:30 and then again at 3:30 and some days doesn't get up until anywhere between 6:30 and 7:30.
Liam is so loved by his older Brothers, they have adjusted better than We ever could have anticipated. Brady can't seem to kiss him enough and Cameron loves to talk to him and will make him "food" from his kitchen and if he's sleeping in the bouncy seat Cameron leaves his food next to him. Every night they can't go to bed until they have both given him a hug and a kiss and if they don't see him the minute they walk into a room they want to know where he is. I only have 2 more full weeks of daycare before a couple of kids leave for the summer and it will be a welcome little break, and Brian will be finishing up his school year also, while he still has to work he has much more flexability and NO night commitments.
I was so nervous when we found out we were having another child even though we planned for it, and now I know I was nervous for nothing. Liam fits right into our life and we couldn't imagine our lives without him! Our family has so much love to give that adding another family memeber was a wonderful blessing!
