I am such a talkative boy. I sometimes would rather talk than eat my bottle. I have been getting more formula feeds because I seem to put on the weight faster. I was 8 lbs 8 oz. last night! I slept for eight hours last night! The only bad thing about that was when I was weighed this morning I was 7 lbs 15 oz, after dad changed my extremely full diaper. Mom and Dad may need to wake me up in the middle of the night to feed me once. My weight is so sensitive. Mom is currently starting to wean herself from breast pumping. She is trying to do it twice a day since I have started to eat more formula. We have a deep freezer full, so we should have enough breast milk to last me at least 3 more months. Mom is sad about making this transition, but knows we have to do what works best at this point. I will still get some breast milk everyday, so hopefully the immunities will help keep me healthy as I grow bigger. I got to meet my Great Uncle Gord and Aunt Claire. They had their baby shower last Sunday. My Cousin Emma held me too. She even took one of my pacifiers for herself. I didn't mind though. I love to suck on my two middle fingers more. I was over stimulated that day with all of the new faces.
Love, Ben

Hey Ben!
Glad to hear you're eating well and gaining some weight. And to hear that you're talking Mommy and Daddy ears off - that's a hoot!
Keep getting stronger Ben, we're all out here pulling for you.:o)

Hi Ben,
I love your new pictures! You're such a cutie! I'm glad you're talking up a storm (you must get that from your Mommy ;-), but don't forget to take a break every once in awhile to eat. It's so good to hear you're doing well, gaining weight and sleeping so well. Tell your Mom I know how she's feeling about the weaning. I'm doing that with my little boy right now, too. It's hard, but it sounds like you have plenty stored up to last for awhile. Tell your Mom and Dad hi, and keep on being great parents! I hope you know how lucky you are to have been blessed with such an amazing Mom and Dad!
Love, Meg
