Yesterday, we took Felix for this first extended car ride, to Nick's aunt and uncle's house in Germantown for his grandma's birthday brunch. We learned one very important lesson - if a drive takes about the same amount of time or longer than the average time between feedings, we shouldn't go. Not yet, at least. On the way there and on the way back, Felix screamed bloody murder within about fifteen minutes of our destination. And we weren't in a position to stop and feed/change him. No way. No more trips for quite a while.We did take him to the service at Prairie today. He was very good there - wide awake the entire time (!), and didn't even fuss. We did have to change his diaper, but that wasn't unexpected.
He's still spitting up a lot. I really hope that ends soon, because it's tough to keep up with the constant feedings necessary to keep something down, and our laundry is getting out of control. But that's the worst of it, which is pretty mild, comparatively speaking. He is growing, so he is getting plenty to eat. He's almost fitting perfectly into the newborn clothing - 0 to 3 month clothes aren't far behind!
Felix: 4 wks
