4 weeks old!

I can not believe that Gavin turned 4 weeks old yesterday!  The time has just flown by!  He is getting bigger and bigger everyday and eats like a horse :-).  He loves to snuggle and has his Daddy wrapped around his little finger.  He basically sleeps on Clay's chest between his 5 pm feeding and his 8 pm feeding and if Clay tries to put him down so he can do things like eat dinner, then Gavin screams bloody murder.  He has quite a set of vocal cords.  Sometimes when he is super peeved, any outsider that could hear him would think we were slowly cutting off an arm or leg.  In the past couple of days he has perfected the silent scream that always comes right before the most unbelievable un-silent screaming :-).  It usually makes me laugh because normally he does this when one of us is trying to change his diaper, something he truly hates most of the time.  I honestly can't imagine what is so terrible about getting out of a nasty diaper into a nice and clean one, but apparently I am missing something :-). 

His feeding schedule has moved to every 3 hours which makes errands and other necessities a whole lot easier.  He has also, just in the past 3 days started getting SO close to sleeping straight from his 11 pm feeding to his 5 am feeding!  I know to those without children might seem trivial but I honestly felt like I had one the lottery the first morning when I didn't wake up until 4:30!  We have taken millions more pictures but Clay has the camera with him for work right now so I can't upload them.  There are a couple of cute videos of his first bath last week and other just random pictures. 

It is so hard to believe that in two weeks I will be back at work.  I could never have imagined that I would be this sad about it.  I know in my heart that it would be super hard for me to be a stay at home mom, but I am REALLY going to miss him!  Too bad I can't take him with me :-)
