One Week Old

One week old and Bentley has already gained his first nickname: the pee monster. The poor guy can't control his bladder, he pees through his diapers, clothes, blankets and bedding at least twice a day! I can't keep up on laundry fast enough, so we went on our first outing--to Target--to buy more sheets and blankets for him. He's peed on his face twice, on Cam and I numerous times and almost every time we open his diaper for a changing. I really can't complain though, I'd rather take peeing on everything any day than a bad sleeper.

I think he looks so much like a Drake in this picture. Maybe he's a good mixture of us both?

We've even learned a little bit about his personality:
  • he loves the bath as long as it's warm
  • he's so content all the time even when he's awake if he isn't being held he's completely fine with it
  • the only time he cries is when he's hungry, and when he's hungry, he wants it NOW
  • he loves listening to Hallie's voice when she talks to him
  • he purses his lips a lot and wrinkles his eyebrows when he sleeps like so...
  • We think he's quite the thinker
  • he's the BEST sleeper ever which is such a nice change from the horrible sleepers our girls were the first year. He goes to sleep at 9:30pm and wakes up about every three hours to eat, burps himself after he eats, then falls right to sleep with a few minutes of rocking. So easy peezy! What a blessing he is :)

Welcome to the world of little boys. I can't tell you how many times I've been peed on by my little rascals. Just keep a burp cloth handy for when the diaper comes off and then you've gotta be quick! He is so adorable!!
