11 Weeks

Update: I have not been posting photos because I lost my USB drive for my memory card for my camera. So until I either find it or buy a new one I will not be able to get my pictures off my camera and onto my computer.

Justace turns his head to look at me when I talk to him now and he can hold his head pretty steady by himself when I pick him now. I can't wait until he is old enough to start eating solid food. Formula is so expensive! And he eats so much! He eats about 6oz per feeding and eats every 2 or 3 hours. Thankfully, this week, he finally started sleeping through the night!!! He falls asleep around 8pm and I wake him at 10pm for one last feeding before bed. He then will sleep until between 4:30am or 6:30am. It's so nice to finally be able to sleep all night without having to get up and feed him.

He loves his toy gym we got him. He has practically mastered the art of getting his tiger to play music by making the ball spin around on it. But after a while if he hits it and it doesn't play him a song he gets angry and starts fussing. And he HATES tummy time so much! The doctor said at his last appointment it's very important he has tummy time every day no matter what because his head is starting to get flat in the back and also to help him build motor skills and muscles. But he hates it. He just lies on his stomach and screams the whole time. He doesn't try to lift himself up or do anything. Just lies there and screams. It's torture for me too. But if the doc says then we will just have to get used to it. Maybe after a while he will get used to it and grow to like it...like his baths.
