Mason Updates:
The first 2.5 weeks have flown by! I can't believe Mason has been in our lives for 18 days already!  We are all doing great!  He has had a few sponge baths (waiting for the last part of his umbilican cord to fall off) and has mixed feelings about it.  He typically enjoys it, unless he gets cold.  We also gave him his first bottle on Friday (7/13) and he did fantastic.  Mikael gave him about 2oz. and he took it all and wanted more.  We will continue to give him a bottle each night so that we don't have any issues when I go back to work in October.  He actually took 4oz from a bottle last night, so we are thinking he is going through a growth spurt, because it only took him about 10 minutes to finish it. 
Finally, he is eating every 2-2.5 hours during the day and eating every 4 hours at night.  I think we are finally getting used to this new sleep cycle.  Sometimes we have to wake Mason up to feed him and other times he wakes us up almost always within 10-15 minutes of our alarm to go off.  So he is definetly well aware of when his feedings are. One last update...he is beginning to be very alert throughout the day. He will smile and look around.  He loves staring at the ceiling fans and anything else that he can look at!
