SIX weeks old today!!

Today has been a day of taking it easy. I talked to the lactation specialist on the phone this morning and am now following a new suggested regimen: nurse him about 20 minutes then give him two ounces from a bottle, THEN pump (to supply those extra ounces). That way he's getting practice using his newly clipped tongue muscles and we're also making sure he's getting plenty to eat.

Arrg! I'm Benjamin one-eye
In other good news, I THINK Benjamin might have smiled for the first time a few days ago (when Clay was home for lunch, luckily), then today he gave me at least a half smile for quite a while.
