You must.

This was the outfit he wore at Christmas. There weren't very many good pictures of it around, so we modeled it some more.

This weekend has been a lot easier than the last week.

After finding out Alex had gained only 4 ounces in 2 weeks (they are supposed to gain an average of 4-6 ounces a week or so) I tried to get him more food. Right now I'm eating oatmeal in the morning (at least one serving) and taking fenugreek 3x a day, 2 capsules each (I'm going to try to take out a dose in a few days to see if I still need all of that) and no more screaming in hunger every night.

Good thing we kept hospital formula, let me tell you.

Alex is now definitely interacting with toys- holding them, squeezing them, looking at them. he has kind of held stuff before, but now he is holding them with intent, which makes a difference. So all of the toys he got for Christmas are starting to be played with.
