Ian is up to eating 3oz at the majority of his feedings, and he can make it through his feedings fully dressed for the most part. At the beginning he would start to fall asleep in the middle of his feedings so we would have to strip him down to just his diaper. Good thing we got past that I was getting concerned that he would just get use to eating in just his diaper and that we would never be able to go out to eat.

Sleeping is still his favorite activity which I'm prefectly fine with and I hope he always enjoys sleeping (at night and during nap times) I was never a good sleeper or napper. So he must've gotten that skill from his daddy. Even now I'm awful at taking naps especially during the week. Now on a weekend I can nap without a problem just not M-F.

He is also growing we are out of preemie clothes which Marcus found 4 sleepers at TJ Maxx and Marshalls on clearance so we got our use out of those and now were into newborn clothes. Although NB is still to big he's not quite long enough or big enough around to fill the clothes out. But in preemie they fit him good around but there wasn't enough in the lentgh area. My lil guy couldn't extend his legs out straight:(

We went to the Dr. again yesterday this was an unscheduled visit until Tuesday, he had to eye ickies forming, my friend Jen said it could be a clogged tear duct. So I called the Dr office and they too flet that he had a clooged tear duct but since the Dr. had only ever seen him once they decided another visit would be good. Dr. confirmed that it was a clogged tear duct and wrote out a Rx. and instructed that until we got it to use a warm washcloth to wipe away the ickies. And since we have yet to receive his social security card he hasn't been added to our insurance so no Rx just yet. This clooged tear duct has pushed back newborn pics. Since he was in the NICU he didn't get any pics taken at the hospital by a professional. So we are going to have Brittany Knox owner of Knox Photography (bknoxphotography.com) take some pics once eye issue is better. Which already we are seeing improvement.

The past 2 days we have gone into my work to play catch up there and he's been a champ sleeps practically the whole time usually wakes up for a 15min bottle and then it's back to sleeping. Tomorrow we have Aunt CiCi pick up detail from the airport. Since Ian started coming as she was boarding the plane to head back to her life in Florida after a week of being home, it's the least we can do for the extra trip home that she is making.

That's what new in the Land of Ian!!
