Quick update

Drew is 5 weeks old - I can't even believe it. Time is flying and I'm already dreading going back to work.

He went to the doctors for his 1 month appointment. My little man is something. He weighed 10lbs. 10oz. and is 21 1/2" long. His lungs, eyes, and heart are all perfect (just like him of coarse.) The doctor said he is doing great.

He is eating about 5-6oz every 3-4 hours. He sleeps a good 6-7 hours at a rip. And takes 2-3 hour naps 2 to 3 times a day. He's sooo good. He's a LOT more alert when he is awake which I love. He loves his play mat, his bouncer, going for walks in his stroller, car rides and his wrist rattles. He still hates his pack n play and crib. We gave up on the bassinet. He will sleep in his crib for about 15 minutes - LoL.

But all in all - we are doing wonderfully. He fits perfectly into our world. I couldn't have asked for a better little mister.


This is Drew the day before his 5 week birthday (Sunday) sleeping in his stroller while Mommy went shopping!

I know - I was definitely blessed that he got his dad's sleeping ability!

Thanks Liz - and congrats on your BPF - I know I'm a little late, but I haven't been on much, trying to enjoy every second I have. But so happy for you!

Shauna,

I had to re-read your post like 3 times before I got it.  All I kept seeing was the "I know I'm a little late" and I was thinking...OMG..is she pregnant again?  LOL  It made me giggle, once I pulled my blonde head outta my ass and re-read the whole post :)

Haha - nope, no more babies for me (as long as I'm with Andy anyways) - he goes in to get clipped in a couple weeks! I'm a little sad - I wanted a brother/sister for Drew closer to his age (his youngest sibling is 10) - but no such luck!

October 5th - way too soon! I got 8 weeks because of the emergency c-section. I wish I could afford to stay out longer or quit all together!!
