Owen has been adjusting very well to his baby sister. He is still quite jealous of all the attention she takes away from him, but he adores her. He tells us when she's crying, gets diapers for her, and always wants to kiss her.
4 days old...
6 days old....
2 weeks old....
She is starting to spend more time awake, but still sleeps an awful lot. She is still sleeping in 3 hour spurts during the night and typically will go right back to sleep after she eats and gets a new diaper. Owen is actually waking up more during the night than she is right now.
16 days old....
19 days old...
3 weeks old...


In other news, Owen has started eating again. This past week he's tried pizza, quesadilla, baked ziti, and a chicken nugget to go along with his standard cuisine of milk, cereal, fruit, and bagels. Now we just have to get some veggies into him and I'll be happy. Luckily, he's not big into sharing right now, so if at first he says no he doesn't want to eat something, all we have to do is say "OK, I'll eat it then," and he becomes very possessive of it and will eat it himself.

As far as potty training goes, he is currently insisting that we change his diaper as soon as it's wet by saying "poopie, poopie!!" When he actually does have a poopie diaper though, he denies it and runs. He will occasionally sit on the potty chair, and actually did go in it yesterday, but for the most part, he says "No thanks" when asked if he wants to sit on it.
Alaina is a very good baby. She is very mellow and only cries when she's hungry or needs a diaper. She does like to be held though, which is starting to pose some issues during the night as her favorite place to sleep is on her belly on my chest. I can't say that I mind holding her though...
