7 Weeks

Jaxson is know 7 weeks! I can't believe how much he has grown in the last week. He has finally out grown his newborn diapers. We have graduated to size 1 diapers! He is also to big for his newborn clothes. We are in size 0-3 months. I am glad he has finally put on some weight but sad that it's going by so fast. He is also sleeping much better through the night. We get up at least once sometimes twice a night. I am looking forward to the full night of sleep.

The pictures below were at our little friend's birthday party. He turned 7. The little girl is Carolina. She is the cutest thing! And she loves her Adam!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Jaxson is now 6 weeks old! Hard to believe! He is growing so fast. He is more alert now and really cooing. It's so cute! He cries alot more too! As soon as I pick him up, he stops which just melts my heart to know that he needs and wants his mommy (or daddy)! Some of the pics are of my good friend Jenny and her little girl, Campbell. She is 1 month older than Jaxson. Don't they make a cute couple?!

1 month old!

I can't believe that my little boy is 1 month old! We went to the doctor and he weighs 7 lbs 14 oz. He is in the lower percentile because he's so small. I have noticed that he is getting chubbier cheeks. I know he will fatten up eventually like most little boys do. His newborn clothes are starting to fit a little better!

3 Weeks!

Jaxson is now 3 weeks old and I can already tell he has grown! We go to the Doctor for his 1 month check up next week. I will be anxious to see how much he weighs. Last week he was 6 lbs. 4 oz. I am hoping he's almost 7 lbs! He's so small! My cats weigh more than him! He is more awake now. He still screams bloody murder when we give him a bath. He also cries everytime we change his diaper. It breaks my heart! I just fall more in love with him everyday!

New Beginnings

Here are some new pictures. It is so hard now to get around to the everyday things that I'm use to. But I don't mind! Jaxson is doing so good! We go to the Peditrician on Monday and hopefully he will be over his Jaundice and will be a little bigger! He is definitly an eater. Right now all he does is eat & sleep. I'm looking forward to when he's more alert and awake. But I cherish every moment right now!

Jaxson Charles Velek!!!

Jaxson Charles Velek was born February 3, 2009 at 9:30 pm. I had a Dr. appt that day and had dilated to a 4. The Dr. said that I was ready and if I wanted, we could go ahead and have him. Adam and I were not expecting him to say that so we went on over the Labor & Delivery and got the process started. They broke my water and gave me potossin. I pushed for 2 hours. Everything went great! Labor wasn't bad at all. Just exhausting!

We left the hospital on Friday because Jaxson had some Jaundice. We got to the peditrician tomorrow. I am very anxious to see how much he weighs now. The breast feeding is extremely challenging but I'm not giving up!

Fire Proof

Okay, I'm not trying to be weird or anything but I just watched the movie Fire Proof and feel like a new woman! It is sooooo good. I highly recommend watching it with your spouse. It isn't your common chick flick. It is a really good, inspirational movie about marriage, life, and your faith in God. It was so nice to watch a movie based on Christian Values for once! Maybe it's my extreme hormones right now but this movie really moved me. I watched it by myself and can't wait to watch it with Adam. I have no doubt that it won't move him the way it moved me (minus the pregnant hormones!). I'll let you know how he responds to the movie!
