I meant to blog a few days ago on March 24th because it was Collin's one month birthday!! But the day passed me by. I swear... I don't know where the time goes?!?!? I mean... I know I'm home all day, but I feel like I don't have time to do anything!! I'm sure any mom reading this can relate. It seems like my schedule is like this all day:
* Wake up
* Feed Collin
* Play with Collin
* Collin takes a nap while I clean bottles and stuff
* Feed Stoli
* Collin wakes up
* Feed Collin
* Repeat...
Sometimes.. and I stress..SOMEtimes I find the time to shower in there.. hahah.. My poor husband probably forgot what the girl he married actually looks like. :(

Update on Collin:
He is still eating like a horse.
He is still having trouble pooping.
He still has lots of gas though.
He is growing so fast. (I'm convinced he is up to 10 lbs)
He loves baths!
He started sleeping through the night (for the most part) 2 nights ago and stays awake most of the day.
He took his first trip to McAllen and San Antonio.
He coos a little bit.
He is still an angel :)

Update on Me:
I've developed mastitis (an infection in the breast). It's the worst pain ever. Seriously! At least during baby delivery you get an epidural!! I wonder if they could give me one to numb my upper body?? Actually...my whole body?? Everything hurts at this point. Last night I had fever all night. I was up with severe chills for over an hour...finally fell asleep...then woke up again at around 3:30 and finally decided to take my temperature...which ended up being 101.5. It persisted through the night and into the morning. I called my doctor as soon as they opened and after giving me the run around for a few hours until about 1pm, but phoned me in a prescription which will hopefully take care of it. What a pain. As much as I want to breastfeed it ends up being more of a pain than anything else. :( Is that horrible of me to say?? Oh well.... I will continue to do it. Collin's health is worth the pain.

Here are the latest pictures from Week 4, McAllen, Mario Luis's visit, and more!
