One Month Check Up

Today was my one month checkup. I weigh 11lb 4oz and am 23 inches long. I gained almost 2 1/2 pounds and grew almost 2 inches. Mommy put this picture on my blog because its one of her favorites. I have changed so much in one month. I look like a little boy now!!!

My First Smile

I had a bath today. I have had a few before but I scream through all of them. But there is something about my bath towel that I just love. I love it so much, I smiled for the first time!!!! Mommy says my smile melts her heart.

Ate Yogurt Today

Today I ate some yogurt. Mommy's friend Claire thought it might help with my digestive problem. I LOVE this stuff!!! It doesn't help with my problem, but I could gulped right down. I'm four weeks old today and already eating with a spoon. I am turning into such a bog boy!!!!!

Slept Thru The Night

I slept through the night!! Mommy couldn't believe it, she thought she had slept through my cries!!! Mommy and Daddy gave me cereal in my bottle tonight. I have been spitting up most of my bottles so they put cereal in it to make it thicker. So with a full belly, I slept from 9:30pm-4:30am. Daddy fed me at 4:30 and I went right back to sleep until 7:15am. Mommy said she could get used to a schedule like this....but I make the rules around here. Here are a few pictures from this past week....

Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day Mommy!!! By the way, if you didn't catch it, I am flipping off the camera in this picture. I know, I'm so naughty. Anyways, today is Mother's day and mommy was surprised last night with a BIG diamond ring from Daddy. He went to the jewelry store to get mommy a ring with my birthstone. Well, since I was 2 weeks early, my birthday is in April. And April's birthstone is....a DIAMOND. Mommy thought that was funny but Daddy didnt. None the less, he thought he would show his appreciation with a ring since this is her first Mother's Day. How romantic.

Grandpa Art Is Coming

Grandpa Art came out from Issaquah, WA to see me today!! He came when everyone was busy with funeral arrangements, but this was a planned trip and it was no trouble at all. We showed him around Florida, and introduced him to my Daddy's family. I had lots of fun when he was here. Hopefully, Grandma & Grandpa's house sells quick so they can move here.

Sad News

Mommy & Daddy got the news this morning that my Great-Grandma Joan passed away. They were very sad all day. Grandma Linda and Grandpa Ted are driving down today to help Aunt Angie make arrangements. I am very excited to meet my Grandma Linda, but it was for a better reason. However, I will do my best this whole week to be good and charming so I can make my family smile a little. I never got to meet my great-grandma but Mommy & Daddy promised to tell me stories. This picture is of my Mommy, great-grandma & aunt Angie at Mommy's baby shower.

My 1st Dr Appt

Today I met my Doctor. His name is Dr. Madden. He is funny and helpful. I weighed 8lb 13oz. Thats 4oz more than I did when I was born! He said everything looked great and because I was such a big boy, I got to miss the 2 week checkup and come back in a month. After coming back home, I was grumpy from being poked and prodded. I looked like I was gonna punch someone and Mommy got a picture of it.

Grandpa Ted Comes To Visit

Grandpa Ted drove to Florida just to see me today! He is spending the weekend with us. He was very happy to see me, and says he can't wait to move down here so he can see me all the time! He is lots of fun. I can't wait to get bigger so I can play with him more. But for now I just slept in his arms. Thanks for coming to see me!!!
