11 weeks!!

Another week flown by again!
*This week, Dean is just learning to arch his back getting in the carseat. I'm sure we will love this new trick of his ad he perfects it ha ha.
*the bad week we had last week ended on Monday, thank goodness. He was getting shorter and shorter on the length of his eating times but still going 3-4 hours between. I was really getting worried. He was down to 6 minutes on one feeding (usually he does 15!!). My plan was to call the Dr Monday morning but that was right when he got back to normal. He still has a feeding here and there where he will stop early (as he does every feeding usually) but he will scream when I try to put him back on. He keeps his mouth open (unlike when he really is done, where he tightens his lips shut). I figured out that for some reason, when he does this, if I stick my finger in his mouth just a little, it tricks him and he will latch on afterward. Whatever works! As long as he is eating enough!
Those are the only two things I can think of that were new this week. Oh and I've started reading to him and trying to be more interactive with toys that make noise so he can learn that his arms and legs can cause the sound. It's so fun!
He is such a good boy and I'm so grateful to be his mama!!
