Okay, I realize Abbott is almost 8 months old, but this post had to happen at some point.

This boy has definitely captured our hearts. He is so much fun to be around and pretty mellow. He weighed in on 6/12/14 at 7 pounds 3 ounces. Our first week and a half were a bit rough with weight gain. Like Elsie, my milk supply is not exactly what it needs to be; after a week of around the clock feeding with continued weight loss we had to begin supplementing with formula. Immediately after starting formula he became a completely different baby; happier, more content, not hungry!

Our first month included a few fun adventures to the beach, friends houses for play dates, first bridal shower, wedding, and many lazy days at home. Abbott fit into newborn clothes and diapers; but needing to switch into size 1/2. He was eating every 3 hours during the day and sleeping one 4 hour stretch at night.
