at 3 weeks Jack was still having a lot of reflux issues so he was only eating about 3 oz every 2 - 3 hours around the clock
How's your little guy doing? Is your DD adjusting well?

Thanks girls! He is good - but I think he's still hungry after 4 oz every 3 hours lately. I'm getting 4 to 5 hour stretches at night though...so that is good. He FINALLY went in the swing for almost an hour today...but no such luck tonight...he prefers my arms!
Ava is...adjusting still. Overall she is doing great but she is definitely frustrated and having more temper tantrums...I feel so bad. Thankfully my father is retired and comes by with lunch for us a lot and takes her out so I can clean up the tornado she makes in the house. How is it going over there????

Well if he's hungry feed him more!!! Hannah ate ALOT more than Jack does. She was at 5 oz very young.
Jack is doing much better with the new formula and medication. He typically goes to bed between 8 -9 and sleeps until 4 or 5am. He doesn't always go back to sleep, but has no problem laying quietly in his crib until we get up at 6:30 - 7. (Thank you miracle blanket!!)
Hannah is definitely getting better, but has her moments. She still tests me alot when I'm feeding him. She knows I can't be after her so that's typically when she misbehaves. The bedtime routine is still a nightmare, but I'm working on finding a way to make it work. I find I lose my temper a lot faster with the 2 of them but I recognize it and I'm making more of an effort to not do it.
My mom thinks I don't pay enough attention to the baby since Hannah is high maintenance. I'm not sure I agree, but I'm working on learning to divide my time more evenly.
This 2 under 2 stuff is hard!!! DOn't worry Ava will calm down. Hannah was a nightmare until Jack was about 7 - 8 weeks.
