Markus - 4 weeks

Markus is now 4 weeks old and is now eating around 4 ounces per feeding. Feedings are around 3 hours apart. It usually takes about 20 minutes or so for him to finish the bottle, followed by some burping, diaper changing, and then he'll either fall asleep or want to be held for a little while. The whole process usually takes an hour. So, if you're lucky, you might get 2 hours of rest in between. When he is really tired, he'll fall asleep after feeding right away and he'll be out for over three hours. That's what we hope for at night! Otherwise, he's doing well. I'm curious how much he weighs. We'll find out on his next appointment on Jan. 10 (immunization shots). Anyway, here's a a video update of Markus. This was around 7 in the morning, after I had just fed him. You can see him just staring around and making noises, which is pretty typical. As a bonus, you can hear him poop around the 1:18 mark (I confirmed this afterwords), and pass gas at 1:11 (he does this frequently). You'll be spared my normal cheesy voice commentary because Sandra was asleep next to me and I didn't want to wake her.

Poor Markus! He's going to be so mad at us someday when he sees the type of video we shared with the public. Hope we can destroy all this evidence if he becomes a pop star or a presidential hopeful...
