• As of last Friday we've been supplementing formula so that Jaxon's jaundice will clear up sooner. Before that he was getting only breast milk.
• He eats about every three hours.
• During the night he sleeps about five to six hours at a time only getting up to feed twice after his feeding between 10:00 and 11:00 PM.
  
• He is an exceptional baby. He only cries when he's hungry or has a tummy ache.
  
• He doesn't like his sponge bath. He gets cold and cries the entire time.
• When he was born he grunted constantly. He doesn't grunt near as much but he still does occasionally. Mason calls him "little grunter".
• He doesn't like his pacifier much. He prefers his thumb and index finger together but I'm still trying to force the paci on him.
• He loves to be swaddled.
• He has a small birthmark on the back of his left arm.
• He keeps his hands up in fists around his face just like Mason did. He looks like a little boxer.
