Jaxon's first Flyer's Game

Jaxon went to his first flyers game on monday!  He loved it and as you can see below was in awe of the lights and the crowd(or maybe disappointed by the scoreboard).  Yes the flyers did lose but they were great seats on the glass right by the Boston bench and during the second period the head ref came over and delivered a puck for Jax.  He's now been officially introduced to Philly fanhood...

7 WEEKS

This week Jaxon was very busy! He made his first trip to church, had a couple playdates, several visits from folks who had not yet met him, and attended his first Flyers game with front row seats and even got a game puck right off the ice before a face off!!
Jaxon hit the 7 week mark today. He is still "sleeping through the night" which means 8 hours in a row. Although when he chooses to start those 8 hours is still a bit erratic; it can be anywhere from 7:30pm to 11pm, and then he is up at 4am or 5am up and ready to go and SUPER hungry. Once he wakes up, whenever that is, he is famished and wants to eat every hour for the first 3 hours and will consume anywhere from 10-15oz during that period. He also thinks it is time to play once he wakes up which makes momma very tired--but so worth it! He has graduated to size 2 diapers (which I should have done a while ago, just couldn't bring myself to waste the rest of the size ones) and I don't think it will be very long before he is into size 3. He is 14.5lbs as of the weekend and size 3 starts at 16ish lbs. This child is growing like a weed! He hasn't chubbed up yet, still is a normal size, just had this huge pot belly. I was kind of hoping that at some point he would be rolly polly like the pillsbury dough boy (I LOVE fat babies), but he seems to be keeping up with his vertical growth nicely.

At exactly 5 week, Jaxon hit 14lbs and slept through the night!! Early birthday gift for mommy :)

1 Month--It has gone by so fast!

My baby boy is now 1 month old! I can't believe it, seems like yesterday we were trying to get pregnant and now here he is! This was right before our trip to his 1 month checkup. He is doing great. Jax is in the 95% for height and weight and 55% for head size. Hopefully that is not a comment on his cognitive abilities. He is up to 12.5lbs from 10.3 at birth and 24.5in from 21 3/4in at birth. He is eating between 5-6 ounces per feeding. My little gorilla is a tank. (I was told by a friend that he was too big to be called monkey and gorilla was more accurate :)).
