Cluster feeding

For those of you who have never heard of this, it is when babies eat very often for a period of time. Well, each night Harrison cluster feeds starting about 4pm. That means that he eats from 4-4:30 or so, then again at 5:00, and so on until about 12. It wears me out!! Right now Jason is distracting him trying to give me a minute to get myself together and place a Lowes Foods To Go order. (I have a coupon for this service, and triple coupons starts tomorrow, so I am ordering all the stuff I have coupons for so that I don't have to try to rush to the store in the morning to get the good stuff.) THANK YOU JASON! Also, thank you to Aunt Jayne for the swing, which has been a life saver the past few days when Harrison has been so fussy (and thank you to Ashley for convincing me to register for the swing!). But, I guess I can't complain about the cluster feeding too much, because after Harrison cluster feeds, he has been sleeping 4-5 hours each night. WHOO HOO But, the whole reason I wanted to post this is to explain why I have not been able to call some of you back as promptly as I would like...by the time you are home from work, Harrison is in the midst of an all-evening eat-a-thon, so please forgive me. I promise to call as soon as I can!!

I don't know if you meant for this to be funny but it cracked me up. All-evening eat-a-thons... too cute. Harrison must be needing the food to beef up to be a big strong boy... can't wait to see him (oh, and you and Jason too)!
