This weekend, Sean's mom, sister, and Grandma came up to Dallas to watch Kaitlyn play soccer in a high school tournament out in Grapevine. Stephen went to one of the games. He fussed through about half of it, but got to see her play. He's growing. This afternoon, I took him to the pediatrician's office and he is 10 pounds, 10 ounces. He's still very gassy and now spits up a lot, but we might try rice cereal mixed in with his breast milk at the pediatrician's suggestion. He seems to have some acid reflux and the cereal should help with this. After much frustration at nursing for both of us, he's getting most of his nutrition through breast milk through a bottle. We're making nursing a positive experience, and much to my liking and comfort, he likes to nurse to sleep and cuddle with me. The good thing is that he is gaining weight and is a normal, beautiful baby.
