midnight, time for medicine
6:00 am, medicine time
Switch has this funny little thing he does when he sleeps. He starts out with his head at the head of the crib and progressively, through the night, he wiggles his way down with his head at the foot of the bed. It's pretty cute so I had t post some pics :) Love to all....and yes, he does sleep through the night!!! 
Just wanted to post some pictures from Switch's dinner tonight. He did very well with his veggies today. I couldn't get him to eat any vegetables yesterday, but he had a whole jar of sweet potatoes and carrots today. He did have some prunes yesterday which made for a big smelly poopie mess today..haha!! I even gave him a little vanilla pudding treat for eating so well today (just 4 small spoon fulls...and he got MAD when I took it away). Until next time...love to all :)
Switch is doing so good without his tube! He took to a bottle like he had been taking one since the day he was born. I gave him a few days on just the bottle before adding cereal and I started it slowly. Two weeks later he is eating some baby food! I have some videos to post on YouTube when I get a chance. He loves carrots, bananas, pears, peaches, apple sauce, and sweet potatoes, but HATES peas and squash. Of course he likes the sweet stuff, but I tried dipping the spoon full of squash in the bananas and it tricked him long enough to get half of the jar of squash down...until he figured it out. We'll try peas and squash again later. I bought him a little swimming pool and a float for the big swimming pool and he loves them both. We were in GA this weekend for a funeral and decided to go for a swim. I have videos of those to post as well....when I get a chance :) I have plenty of time, but it takes forever for a video to download. Switch now weighs 10lbs 8oz and is 21 3/4 inches long. He is still under weight, but now that he is taking a bottle he should plump up pretty fast. The doctor still has me adding calories to his feedings, but he spits up when I give him the 27 cal formula, which to me seems useless!!! He is waking up from a nap so I am going to wrap this up. Love to all!!!

So....the tube is out! Mom and Dad made a decision to take a chance. He went for his swallow study and everything looked good, except that the tube was irritating a muscle at the base of his throat. He's been doing very well. No choking and no coughing :) He loves it!! Switch is getting so big! I can hardly believe that he is almost 4 months old! He has even grown out of some of his 0-3 month stuff. We go to the GI doctor in Jackson on June 25 and then his 4 month check up on the 29th. We're excited that Dad will be in town for both of those!! Last weekend we went to Brookhaven for Bryce's, Switch's cousin, birthday and had a blast. My Mom and Dad went and got to visit with Ms. Debbie, Chuck, Beau, and Jeremy. My Dad hadn't seen them in about 12 years or so. He wasn't excited going down there and I am sure he wished he didn't agree to go, but when we got there and got there started visiting with old friends he was so happy! The only people missing were my brother and Blake, but I hope there will be more times when we can all get together. I will update again soon, but until then thanks for visiting "Life with Switch". Much love to all!!
