two and a half weeks old

* Zade has maintained his "0 to 60" attitude when it comes to being hungry. He definitely let's us know when it's time!

* He has slept several nights for 5 hours at a time, and last night he went 5.5 hours!

* He likes to look at lights on the ceiling.

* It is not uncommon for him to nearly choke when he first starts eating, he goes at it so fast!

* He is usually stilll sleepy in the mornings, and I take full advantage by cuddling him in our bed.

* He eats at least every 3 hours during the day, and is usually awake for 1 - 1.5 hours between feedings.

* Grandma Garwood (my mom) has spent the whole last week with us - she has been SO wonderful to have! Might be a bit of a shocker next week when I have to get our own meals, clean, etc! She also takes him in the night, and comes to get me only when he is hungry.

* He likes to be patted on the back and loves his pacifier.

* He dislikes "tummy time" very much. Tyson usually has to do this with him because I hate to hear him cry so hard. But he does really good about lifting his head and strengthening those muscles he will need when he crawls.

* His newborn diapers are starting to be a bit snug.
