First bottle & growing like a weed!

We were wondering how Wade would take to the bottle and wanted to start introducing it after about a month so that he could get used to it before I went back to work. Both he & his daddy really enjoyed it! There was a lot of gulping and grunting and panting (from Wade, not Mark) and he seemed very excited that he could get the same amount of milk in record time. Although I am starting to wonder how much he eats- we gave him a bottle with 3 oz of milk, which he downed quickly, but then he was still starving so I breastfed him for over an hour! We need to give him a full bottle to test how much he actually eats. I told Mark that I'm glad we aren't formula feeding him- it would cost a fortune!
I can't believe how fast this kid is growing! You can see from the picture above that the cute little overalls that used to be huge on him are starting to look like capri pants! We put him in the pj's that Aunt Jay got for him (3 month size) and he already is filling those out... We just may need to do some more shopping :)
