huge

At our visit to the pediatrician today, we found out that burke weighs 7 lbs 3 oz!

You don't know how thrilled Adam and I were to hear this news... The little bug has had some trouble getting back to his birthweight, so we've been on a kind of crazy feeding schedule that involved lots of feeding, pumping, supplementing, waking him up in the middle of the night and just not much sleep. To be more specific, never more than 2 hours and rarely more than an hour and a half at a time. Which translated into many, many nights in a row with only 4-5 hours of sleep. It's been a rough few weeks.

But tonight, friends, we are allowed to let him go for 3 and a half hours between feedings. AND, we only have to supplement on an "as he seems hungry" basis... which essentially gives me an extra 4-8 hours a day. Glory! We are absolutely, deliriously thrilled (and heading out to celebrate with queso and margaritas)! HOORAY!
