All Miles- All the time

In true bunny muffin fashion we've fallen off the blog thing pretty quick again. Despite our best efforts and goal to really update and document his cute little life- here we are- postless again. Sigh. The reason? We're exhausted. C-sections are a horrible, cruel, miserable event- and by the time I'm done tending to Miles and making dinner (literally the only 2 things do in a day) all I want to do is lie down. Thankfully my mom is in town this week again which gives me extra sleep and 5 minutes to collect something that resembles a thought process!

Miles had his 2 week appointment last Friday. We was up to 7# and 3 oz!! Wa-hoo!! Thats 3 oz above his birth weight! I was so nervous for this appointment because breastfeeding has still been a major headache and we are still supplementing with formula. I'm trying to get the supplements down- but at the same time- I don't want to be starving him either. Slowly but surely we'll get there Miles. One day at a time!


Miles also has good nights and bad nights. Last night he went straight to bed at 8pm. Except for one diaper change- he slept all the way until 10:40. (I had fed him ~ 7:15 before bed so it was time for him to get up and eat) Then he got up at 11:30 again for a diaper change. Long story short- I was up with him until 1am because he was taking what I can only describe as the longest poop of his entire life. (all 2 weeks of it!) I kept changing him, rocking him back to sleep, then I'd hear "it". Sigh. Change him, rock him, wet fart. Finally I just got on my cell phone, played scrabble for 30 minutes, then changed him, rocked him back to sleep, only for him to decide that he's now HUNGRY from all that pooping. Sigh. So then we nursed, rocked, and FINALLY went back to sleep. He then made it til 4 am, where I brought him back in to lay with Matt until Matt gets up for work. It works out pretty well, and is the best of both worlds for us. Matt is usually up by 6 am- so its only 2 hours of cuddling- and he still sleeps most of the night in his own bed.

He still loves the swing, and he loves Matt a lot. They cuddle together and watch ESPN and bowl games, liverpool games, etc. I have a feeling he is going to be a total daddys boy!


Also for the Miles one week birthday we had a photo shoot with JSI photography! Hopefully in the next week or so we'll have those images back and we'll be able to post/share them. :)
