First off, thanks everyone for your great advice. It's comforting to know there's other mom's out there that understand where we are, even if our kids are unique and different from each other. We are thinking that Breeson is a routine guy and we're going to do our best in keeping some type of schedule, although we won't be strict. The one piece of advice that I really appreciated and have already seen a difference in, is to let him sleep when he's tired, even if it's close to bed time. The "over-stimulation" aspect seems to be true if we keep him up and we've noticed already that he goes down a little better at night if he takes a short nap before his last feeding. Thanks again!!

In other news...

Last night, Jamie and I went to test out a new Mexican restaurant (well, new to us) down the street. I'd give it a 6 out of 10. The waiter must have been new b/c he forgot everything!! One of the ways we "rate" a good Mexican restaurant is whether or not they have good salsa. The salsa on the left was incredibly spicy, so I asked for some mild salsa. So, he brought out ketchup!! :)
Other than that, the food was pretty tasty. And since we only had to pay for 1/2 of the meal (we had a buy one, get one free coupon), it wasn't too bad.


This is Breeson expressing his feelings. He usually has this look about 30% of the day; sometimes 40% - it just depends on his mood. :(


As for the 4th of July...we spent the evening at some friends' relatives house. We left early b/c of Breeon's colick. I saw a few fireworks from our dining room window after I got done feeding Breeson. Happy Independence Day - woo hoo. Next year will be more enjoyable b/c Breeson will be able to enjoy them a little more, and so will we!!

Diet update: we did cheat a little this weekend. We had a cookout at Clint and Theresa's on Friday night. However, on the 4th, we did opt for Turkey burgers rather than a hamburger or hot dog. We did eat some carrot cake that night, but it was well balanced with a lot of fruit too.
