7 weeks!




7 Weeks: Tears! I can't believe it's been 7 weeks. Since I know that in 6 short weeks I will be going back to work I've been cherishing all of our snuggle time. And just enjoying each day! 

Weight:  9.7+ pounds

Sleep: Sleeping all night in the rock n play. He’s now getting up around 1 or 2 and then 5. We still keep trying to get him to go back to sleep after the 5am feeding but he’s always up with in an hour. 

Clothes: He is now in 0-3! I almost cried packing up the newborn clothes :(

Visitors:  Jackson went to meet the ladies from work, like usual he slept through the whole thing. And he met his great mimi!! Great mimi flew in all the way from Indiana to snuggle with him, he has loved every minute of course.



Out and About: The usual lunches and errands. BUT we did go to target and bought groceries not just a few but all of them. This was quite the challenge because his carseat takes up the whole cart but I was determined. So I had food in the seat of the cart and underneath. I felt pretty accomplish after this.. hahah next time I want to use our baby Bjorn so we can get more groceries. Oh and he did get meet the doctor who delivered him (tear)! I was pretty nervous he would start crying mid exam and there was nothing I could do but he was an angel- awake the whole time but happy.

Baby Gear Love:  
Aden and Anais Burp rags: LOVE these. They are very thick and soft so they are perfect for spit up. You can also use them for bibs but I haven't yet. I wish I had more!



Crying:  
He is doing so much better- less crying everyday. I contribute this to him feeling better, we are somewhat of a routine, and we are just getting the hang of things. Jamie is still learning well I think they are learning together. Jackson isn’t giving daddy a break. Tsk Tsk Jackson

Milestones:  
I think he is officially “cooing”. He was quite the little talker Saturday morning. He did push up on his arms and lift his head (while screaming) during tummy time. He is also picking his head up off my chest and looking at me..really freaking cute! Lots of smiles!!

Postpartum: I am cleared!! I went running and spinning this week. My first run I smiled like a fool the whole way. I was really nervous about taking a spinning class but I made it! And I was going all out the whole time.

Goals:
This week he had a nap in the crib 1x a day ranging from 15 mins to an hour. We have a routine everyday I would say- times vary. The feeding schedule was awesome until Friday and then he was all off but this could have been his growth spurt. We have been doing tummy time at least 5x’s a day but it never lasts too long. We have somewhat of a bedtime routine I would just really like to move the time up and add reading a story but.. one day. 

This week- Keep working on everything from last week.
