We thought that getting him home would make things easier. Okay, we were a little bit wrong about that. Patrick did so well one night with the waking up and eating, but every other night has just been awful.

For Patrick, night time is play time. He doesn't want to be alone at all. You can count on being awake from about 3am to 8am with him. I started looking into things we can do to get him set into a routine, and maybe that will help.

Our friends Ben and Shari had a baby scale from Shari's sister, and they're letting us borrow it. Last night he weighed in at 5lbs 13oz! For as bad as his eating habits have been, at least he's getting bigger!

Patrick went on his first Home Depot trip to pick out some shades with Gramma Vickie. The first of many trips, I'm sure!
Here's some pictures of Patrick not being a huge stinker -














Cousin Colin helping out with the bottle. He kept asking "Where's my baby?" when he came over.











Not a fan of tummy time.

I'm sorry, Jen. Are you getting ANY sleep? Hang in there.
