Baby suddenly sleeping a lot...growth spurt?

[amc80]

Yesterday, B (14 weeks tomorrow) was up a total of about 6 hours. He went to sleep at 9pm and didn't wake up until almost 4am for a feed (he usually wakes up around 2am). He was up for 45 minutes eating and burping and such, then was out until we woke him up around 7:45. He usually gets up about 6:30. I gave him a bottle, loaded him into his car seat, and he fell asleep on the way to day care, and was sleeping when I dropped him off. He seems totally fine when he's awake, so I don't think he's sick. He's also eating a TON. Yesterday he had about 25oz of breast milk and another 10oz of formula....so 35oz total. Do you think this is just a growth spurt? It's not normal for him to sleep so much during the day, and he normally maxes out around 30oz a day. So obviously, as a FTM, I have to worry when things are different. Thoughts?
