Today we ventured out...well, kind of. Caleb stayed in the car with either my mom or Dave while the other two of us went and did whatever errands/shopping needed to be done. Caleb took a trip to the credit union, toys r us, satellite city hall, and sam's club. He was sleeping most of the time...woke up while my mom and I were in sam's to eat, then promptly went back to sleep.

Here's what Caleb's eating schedule looked like today...
  • midnight - 3 oz
  • 3:30 - 4 oz
  • 7:10 - 3 oz
  • 9:15 - 4 oz
  • 1:10 - 3 oz
  • 3:00 - 3 oz (breastmilk)
  • 4:30 - 2 oz
  • 7:00 - 3 oz
  • 8:15 - 2 oz
We'll probably have at least one more feeding tonight...

I'm trying to figure out just how much sleep I'm getting at night...last night I think I got about 6 hours, which is actually more than I thought I'd get. It's a trip because if you figure in the time you're awake to feed, burp, change, soothe, settle, that quickly turns into about 45-60 minutes easy for each waking. He has been sleeping for longer stretches in the almost three weeks we've had him...hope that's a trend that continues! I keep reading about colic starting at around the third week...dang, if Caleb gets colicky, that's going to be a struggle. Dave's mom said he was colicky so we'll see. My mom said I wasn't too bad. Let's pray Caleb takes after me in that part.
