Derek: Cluster Feeding at one Month old.

With the fires mostly out of the picture, we can talk about the family again...


Caiden's started the habit of "Cluster Feeding". What this is- is that he eats (which takes about 45 minutes) then wants to eat 45 minutes later. He does this for about 4-5 hours. This isn't so bad during the day. But he doesn't have a set time of the day to cluster feed. So sometimes the clusters happen, like last night, from 11PM to 4 AM. This leaves only 45 minutes to sleep between feedings. Not fun...


Dillon's decided he doesn't want to be a part of it anymore. For him, sleeping in the hallway on the floor is better than sleeping on his soft pillow in the room with us... Sometimes i think he's smarter than any of us. But then Caiden looks at us and does his big goofy smile. Then it's all worth it, even less than 3 hours sleep last night. Nothing compares to those feelings that Caiden can bring out, just with one look, one cuddle, one cry.
