3 Weeks and 3 Days old - plus a visit from Friends

Great weekend this weekend. David and Jennifer came down to see Collin from Houston. Saturday afternoon we went to Bootfest, Collin, David and my mom, for the afternoon. Collin did so good we were able to walk around for about an hour and half before he started to get fussy and it was time to go home. Then Saturday night, grandma stayed home with Collin and Josh and I got to go back out to bootfest with Jen and David and watch a band and fireworks until 10. That's the latest I have stayed out. Boy was I tired. But we had a really great time. Today we were able to spend the afternoon out in the country with my family. Everyone got to pass around the baby and take lots of pictures. He is very loved.

Collin is growing so fast. He seems to be getting bigger by the minute. We are about to go to 1 size diapers as soon as we finish the box we have. We have been using Pampers Swaddlers. They work really well. Collin has been spitting up more and more lately though. And seems to be fussier. I think it is gas pains. We had to start using some drops. They seem to be doing the trick, but when he does get fussy, he starts crying so hard, and I feel so bad I wish I could help and make the pain go away faster. We are starting to have naps that last 3 hours now. More 3 hour naps than 2 hour naps. Hoping this is a good sign of things to come. We are still breastfeeding two feedings and then a bottle feeding on the third. Although, breastfeeding is becoming kinda hard for this mommy, and I think soon we will probably switch to just a bottle. But I am going to try and hang in there as long as I can.

Here are some pictures from this weekend.
