Yeah I I'll keep yall updated.
Yeah I'm going to give him his phone and iPad back
the other day at the mall, we were going up a steep escalator and my 5 year old son takes a tumble backwards. i'm mortified and take off after him. he does about 3 rolls and slows so i grab him. he starts crying and i'm expecting blood to come pouring down but he looks ok except for two scraped knees bleeding a little. i tell him to shake it off and we finish shopping. we get home and he says that he's still hurt and cannot walk. i tell him if he runs to the end of the hallway and back i'll buy him some hotwheels later. dude rips it up and down the hall and i tell him i was going to buy him a car but since he lied about being unable to walk, he ain't getting a damn thing
after his shower, i band aid one knee and notice he has a long scrape on his shoulder and back from the escalator so we talk about elevator safety: focus, hold the rail, and don't put one foot on the stationary side part and drag his foot and how it's a good thing to learn your lesson and don't repeat mistakes....then i took him to the store and bought him a hot wheel
) anyway...he wasn't doing well with breast feeding so we used formula pretty much the whole time he was a baby.
My wife had a hard time breast-feeding our first born and due to the stress that caused, she stopped producing milk. So we transitioned to formula, specifically, Gerber Good Start Gentle formula. It was pricey, since Wal-Mart/Sam's Club was the only retailer that sold it at the time. From then on, our daughter had that until she began transitioning to whole milk.
I haven't but i read great things about it on the internet. It is funny because i read and post on these 'motherhood' message boards and i feel like i am the only dad, its all moms talking about feeding and this and that. My wife never spends the time to research like i do

it'll get better eventually. i felt like a zombie for the first 3 months. even though my son slept in the bed with us, i would wake up to change the diapers (and the little band aid for the first week) in addition to doing everything else that you mentioned. if my son was fussy, i would carry him and walk the hallways in our building until he fell asleep. i slept better at my desk at work for than at home. i know it can get crazy but it'll get better. i thought i would never have good sleep again but my son sleeps like a rock now. no naps in his kindergarten so lil' man can be exhausted after school. the other day he slept from about 5pm until 7am 
Man that straight pre k to kindergarten is no joke on there sleeping patterns. My son went from getting a 2-3 hour daily nap at daycare to zero rest at school. Little man is zonked by like 430 PM. He needs to get to bed earlier at night though. BM is a space cadet when trying to hear thathey
