Two Month Well Visit=SHOTS!!!!!

Mr. K did so good at his two month well visit. He took his two shots with ONE two-second cry. He is 24 inches and 13.5lbs. His height, lbs, and head are all caught up now- all 90%tile. Here are some photos of Karch taken today 2-18-09. He loves his elephant. You can see him looking at it thinking, ‘you sure do look funny’ and ‘I want to put you in my mouth’. A few smiles and coos were had also.

K's first Play Date

Karch had his first play date with a fellow baby yesterday 2-17-09. We went over to Lisa’s and spent time with beautiful Isabelle. Here are a few pictures…

LOVING Being a Mommy at All Hours

Who knew waking up at 4-4:30AM would be so rewarding. I tried to capture how amazing the feeling is. Jason wakes up with Karch for his first feeding at 12-12:30AM and I get the second feeding. As I am woken up by grunts and stirring, I crawl out of bed to pick the little guy up to attend to his needs. His eyes are still squinting while we walk into his nursery. I place him down on his changing table and remove his diaper as he is still trying to wake. By the end of the diaper changing my little man is wide awake and ready to chow down. BUT in between the changing table and his bottle he looks at me and melts my heart- this is why I love waking up with him.

The Tooter is 7 weeks old today!

Wow, Jason and I cannot believe how fast these weeks have flown by- Make it stop! Karch is becoming a little person more each day. He started smiling recently. We only catch a few smiles a day, but when we do they melt our heart.

Over the past few weeks we came to realize Karch has acid reflux, so we have him on Prevacid, adjusted his bed to a 30 degree angle, and we are putting Gripe Water in his bottles! After tons of research and talking to other mom’s this all seems to be controlling it. Due to him being uncomfortable from the acid reflux, his sleep schedule was thrown off. After talking to Jamie, I used her suggestions and now he only wakes up two times a night (thanks Jamie!)! So, Jason gets up with him the first feeding, and I get the second feeding.

This smirk melts my heart!

Being adorable in his fabulous outfit his Aunt Pat bought him. This is also his favorite floor time spot (thanks Bryan and Jamie!).
