Harry Update

Harrison Dean has been such a good boy. He is so content almost all the time, of course he has a few fussy moments but, they do not last long. I took him to the doctor yesterday because he has a small yeast infection and he was so happy go lucky with all the nurses and the doctor. He weighed 10.4lbs and in the 75th percentile in weight and height. We love our pediatrician, she is actually a nurse practitioner, I ended up going to her because she is a lactation consultant and I needed some MAJOR consulting! After she complemented Harrison and treated me like a friend I had to switch from my original pediatrician. She picks him up and constantly talks about how cuddly he is, she speaks my love language!!!

Today I was forced to take him to Wal-Mart and the entire time he was wide awake. I put his car seat in the cart and he did not make a peep the entire hour I was there. He acted like the Wal-Mart ceiling was the most interesting piece of art he had ever seen. I guess living in this town you have to love going to Wal-Mart!

He loves his swing and does well in his bouncer while I attempt to take quick showers.

He has been going to sleep so much easier than before but, I would like to drop a few of his nightly feedings. I have tried the pacifier but, always give in to just giving him a 5 minute feeding. We feel blessed he is still going right back to sleep after each night feeding. I am working on cluster feedings with him, but this whole sleep thing is not as easy as the book says.

He has been a great trooper in going on girly lunches with me. He has slept through almost everyone!! That is a great benefit to staying at home.

I know I keep say this but, God really could not have given us a more perfect baby. I am so in love with him!
