Happy Halloween and 3 weeks!

Max was SO excited for Halloween....




Some 3 week updates....
I have a VERY slow eater. Some days each time he eats its over an hour and then the times he doesn't eat for long he eats again in under an hour. He's a hungry little boy and he should be on milk mustache commercials, its pretty funny. He's on no schedule but he's usually fairly good at night. He eats at least every 3 hours so I never get much consecutive sleep but he's usually good about going right back down and those times he can't settle or I just NEED more sleep, he sleeps on my chest and he's out for a while so we both get some good sleep then. I do have quite the TV schedule now though. Its amazing what is on in the middle of the night. All kinds of infomercials selling very interesting things. PCN however does have Deutche Welle on for hours in the early morning so thats kind of fun to get my German TV time in. Fresh Prince is also on a lot so thats a good fall back when HGTV goes to infomercials at 3am.....sad huh....
He still has all that hair. He likes his baths now. We give him his bath after I have, or someone, has, gotten a shower so the bathroom is all warm. He still hates being cold and naked, diaper changes are still a scream most of the time. He's also getting projectile and I have to try to keep him "covered" during changes but again, because he just loves it so, he's usually crying and wiggling so that's not always easy. I also have figured out how to diaper him in a way that he's not leaking all over so that saves me a lot of laundry and keeps us all a bit drier. He's starting to outgrow some of the newborn clothes but it really depends on the brand.
Other than all that exciting stuff he totally cracks us up. He makes the funniest noises and faces and is really just hours of entertainment. We have so much fun, I sometimes miss him when he does sleep for a while.
He's always good when we go out too so I hope we keep that up. We even made it to church on Sunday and we've been house hunting and shopping and to Grandma's. He seems to like riding in the car.... walks are still iffy but I think fresh air is good for both of us!
Anyway, that's our Max in week 3, I can't believe he's almost a month old. It seems like we just "got" him. We couldn't e happier though!
