Dad's Corner

Brett just turned 7 weeks yesterday. Still not used to going by weeks, especially since it is confusing in that there isn't always 4 weeks in a month. Anyway, all is good in the Bingham household. Brett is starting to hold up his neck more and really is close to giving us all kinds of big smiles. We see little ones every now and then. Yesterday, I had to buy him new pj's because he is out growing everything. We have his two month appt. soon so it will be interesting to get his latest weight. Sleep is getting a little better as we are figuring him out. I am very proud of Kristin in that she is still breastfeeding. I can't imagine being always on demand like that. It makes you understand why only 30% of woman exclusively breastfeed at 3 months. In other words, it's hard and takes a lot of patience and support! The benefits though can't be denied.

With all the news lately about the woman from CA with 14 kids I wonder how she will be able to manage? Maybe she can give some away to couples who can't concieve! My other rant is the overload of information on the web and in books on how to raise your child, immunizations, sleep habits, etc. It's kind of overwhelming and rarely says the same thing. Kristin and I try to educate ourselves the best we can and hope we are doing what is best for Brett.

Lastly, we are finding out that Brett really likes baths and he is a big fan of his bouncy seat. The crib I think to him is a big scary open space. As he gets bigger I'm sure he will get more used to it and spend more naps there. Anyway, getting bigger means more outfits that he can fit into.....so I will try to snap away.
