Max, Rafael and the bottle.

Max is spectacular. Dad had a cuddly time bottle feeding "o pequenino." He's getting much, much better at bottle feeding and is learning to pace himself when he knocks one back.  He still attacks the bottle like he has 3 seconds before it disappears, but he's doing a much better job with remembering to swallow and breathe in the middle of it all.   He's been doing so well that they've begun feeding him by bottle whenever he seems to start rooting. He's still getting the same amount every 3 hours but they're letting him set his feeding pace a bit more.  This brings him closer to the way newborns act, and will let him set his own instinctive rhythm in terms of feeding.

He had his great-grandma visit him today.  They hung out for a while and Rosemary had a lovely time singing and talking to the little one. It's nice that Max has such a lovely, multi-leveled family to love him.

Max's parents promise that there will be some visuals added to this blog very soon.
