Time is flying Baby Boy! Next week you will be a month old already! Before we know it, we will be celebrating your first birthday!
In the past week you have gained about 9 ounces! Normal is to gain between 3.5-7 ounces...You're a growing boy!
Today you weighed in at 9 pounds 4 ounces!
Your newborn clothes are getting a little tight and your are starting to fill out your 0-3 month clothes much better.
You have also just about outgrown your newborn diapers and are starting to transition to size 1!
You are very alert baby boy! Napping isn't something you readily choose :) Mommy has started to swaddle you and put you in your swing and then you are out like a light! Otherwise, you spend the day yawning and barely nap!
You are still sleeping great! This past week you slept through the night! But on average, you usually sleep 5-6 hours and then another 4 hours.
When you play on your play mat, you are starting to kick and grab at all the dangling toys!
You love being on your back on the floor where you can move, move move!
Daddy went back to work this week and now its just you and me at home.
Daddy misses you lots but we have been lucky to visit him lots already too!
That 0-3 month onesie is fitting much better these days! You must be getting longer too!
Baxter still loves you brother :)
Although, he does seem more jealous of you now that daddy is back to work and he is getting less attention. Can't wait for you to be able to play together! You will both love it!
Kick, kick!
Not as much noticeable changes from last week to this week.
Here are some cute photos of you from the past week :)
Rockin' the mowhawk compliments of daddy!
You went for some baby pictures...and were sound asleep...until we started posing you. You aren't a very deep sleeper, but at least you sleep like a log at night!
Last Thursday Mommy left you for your first "guys night" with Daddy and Uncle Pat while I went to a photography class. And that's where I learned about taking great pictures! If you haven't seen the baby pics yet, you can find a sneak peak here. Mommy got to have her first glass of wine since you were born! And only drank about 3 sips before feeling too tipsy! ha ha
You also went on your first road trip! We went to mommy's hometown in Cornell and visited Grandma Jill, Grandpa Jeff, Great Grandma Greta, Grandpa Ron and Great Grandma Charlotte.
You also went to your first rodeo! Every year we take Grandpa Ron for Father's Day. You were such a hungry boy, though, and ate the entire time!
Check out the cool new blanket you got this week! It even has all your birth info. This will be a really special blanket for you :)
Baxter approves too :)
We celebrated our First Father's Day with Daddy on Sunday. Daddy had to work at church in the morning but we made him his favorite lunch, relaxed outside all day and then went to dinner. You loved sitting outside! Every time the wind blew through your hair, though, you would jump!
You also got your first "boo boo". When you were 1 week old you had a red spot on your finger tip. I thought maybe Baxter nibbled you so didn't think much of it, but decided to watch Bax closely. Then on Sunday we realized that the red dot had turned to looking like a blister and your finger was also red. Daddy did some research that said it could have gotten infected from trimming your nails and then you sucking on your fingers. It got a little better but today I called the doctor and we are getting it checked out tomorrow.
Mommy loves to snuggle with you after you finish eating :)
You have also been doing a lot of active sleeping. You move and groan a lot while you sleep, often holding your arms in the air. It's pretty funny and cute!
You also still love your play mat! But Mommy thinks it might be keeping you awake during the day when you need to be napping... oops!
Daddy went back to work this week, too. This is where we can find you most days come 4/5 o'clock :)
