We got Dom this vTech "trainer" laptop for Christmas. He freaking LOVES it. I don't know if he's mimicking mommy when she's on her laptop, but he'll actually play with this thing for more than 10 minutes which beats all records held by his other toys.
Also: Dom is modeling his BabyLegs legwarmers, which are awesome: No taking off pants to change diapers! And since the introduction of solids, there has been a LOT of that going on.

365 Project: 12/31/10
The New Year is here, and I am going to try something new that might help me blog more often. I am going to try the 365 days of photos project, and will attempt to post them here are well.
Matt and I said goodnight to 2010 with take-out sushi, fancy champagne, and the crystal flutes from our wedding. It was a quiet, perfect night.
2010 is going to be hard to beat: Our son was born, all 3 of our siblings got married, the Lakers AND the Giants won their respective championships, I've had the opportunity to be a stay-at-home-mom. But definitely looking forward to what lies ahead.

Dom @ 5 Mo.
So 
apparently I wrote this up a few weeks ago and never posted it. Doh! Dom is now 6.5mo, but who's counting?
Eats: Approx 30-34oz
formula/breastmilk per day (5-6 bottles) + 2 oz solid foods (prunes + a veggie, we just started this but he LOVES the sweet potato)
Sleeps: Approx 13-14 hours, Longest night-sleep averages 7-8hrs (shortest 5hrs, longest 11.5hrs), 3 daytime naps
Pumping: 6-8 oz per day. I'm weaning myself off...
Weighs (@19 weeks): 15.4lbs/45% percentile (+9lbs from birth)
Height (@19 weeks): 25.5 inches /50% percentile (+7.5inches from birth)
Head (@19 weeks): 17.5 inches /90% percentile (+4.5inches from birth). Yes, Dom has a GIANT head. Runs in my family!
Typical Day @ 5mo:
6:45-7:00am - Wake up, hang out with mom and dad in bed.
7:30am - 8oz bottle / playtime in Exosaucer
8:15-8:30am - Nap #1 (approx 45 minutes)
8:30am - Hang out while mom does chores
10:00am - 2 tsp solids (prunes) mixed with reflux meds (YUM), + 4-6oz bottle
10:30-11:00am - Nap #2 (varies from 40 minutes - 2 hours)
Afternoons vary based on nap #2, we usually run an errand or go on a walk in the Bjorn
3:30-4:00pm - 6-8oz bottle, Nap #3, sometimes in the swing if he's being especially fussy (15 minutes - 1 hour)
5:00pm - Playtime with Daddy, 4-6oz bottle
6:30pm - 2-4 tbl solids
7:00pm - Bathtime & 6-8oz bottle
7:30-8:00pm - Bedtime
Sometimes he'll wake up for a bottle at around midnight if he hasn't eaten at least 30oz during the day. Dom has never been a big eater, I'm actually shocked he's taking 8oz bottles at all! He still cluster feeds after 3pm, taking bottles every 2-3 hours instead of every 3-4 in the morning.
He takes 1 great nap a day in the late morning, but is a HELLCAT after 3pm. It's almost impossible to get him down for more than 20 minutes. I used to fight it and spend 2 hours trying to get him to sleep, but since he's now sleeping so much at night I'm letting him stay up if that's what he wants. Makes putting him down at 7pm that much easier!
