Emergence of the Routine!

Everett is making great strides and growing up right before our eyes. At 8 days old, he's begun taking the lead on setting his schedule. Until now, feedings have consisted of me waking him every 3 hours to eat. Tonight, however, I saw the start of his own routine taking over mine. Every time during the nighttime feeding hours, he awoke on his own somewhere between 2.5 and 2.75 hours, ready to nurse. It's exciting to watch him coming into his own, and I am so proud of him for doing so well forming his routine!
