Determined! That is our little guy's attitude towards bottles. Joel took ALL of his meals by bottle for 27 hours. That's 9 full bottle feeds in a row! They have been increasing the quantity slowly, and he's at 25mL bottles now. Of course, when Daddy showed up with the video camera tonight...well...I think he's camera-shy! He still took about half his bottle, though. I'm so impressed that he was able to do that! He woke up about 15 minutes before each meal, which is a big milestone...babies need to wake up to feed, and he did that all night and all day. WOW.
Even with all the effort involved in bottle-feeding, Joel packed on another 45 grams. He is 1,535 grams, or 3lb 6oz. He continues to do really well!

There's a baby under that patch!

Happy 9 weeks old birthday Joel!
