This weekend we are at the deer lease, thank goodness for wireless internet! He slept through his first trip to the deer stand and muddin... imagine that. He's been a very very good baby so far (pray he keeps it up)! Here's the happy camper:

2 wk appt

This is probably one of my favorite pics!!


We went to Westons 2 week check up and he was cleared with a clean bill of health! The pediatrician was surprised to see how much weight he gained! Up to 6 lbs 15 oz (up 11 oz from the hospital) and now 20 inches (1/2 inch longer)! He's getting big already! He's been sleeping well and waking up every 3 hours to eat... I'm not having to set my alarm any more, he's actually waking up and making little noises when it's time to eat.

Here's the little Mister taking a nap... He's been super good! We've been crossing our fingers that he keeps it up! I have to wake him up for feedings because he would sleep right through them.

He's HERE!!!

So he's a little early..... But he's here!





He arrived Friday December 12th at 4 pm (exactly 4 weeks early) weighing it at 6 lbs 12 oz and 19.5 inches long. He's doing well besides the jaundice which we have been treating in the hospital just because he's early and my drs are pretty cautious. Check out his duds with the bili lights...









He's doing well and we hope to be home tomorrow (we have only spent one night at the house). I'll be posting some more pics ASAP!

Happy Thanksgiving!! We saw my OB yesterday and she made it official, we will be inducing December 29th! Most likely he will be here on the 30th as I'm going in the night of the 29th. Now it's time for last minute items and getting the nursery organized!! I have another appointment coming up on December 12th so I will keep everyone posted!!

Hi!

So we went to see the perinatologist last week and weren't able to get good pictures of Weston because he had his arms crossed in front of his face the entire time. He's difficult, imagine that. He is weighing in at 4 lbs 2 oz, a whole pound over the average for his gestational age. The Dr said "He is most definitely a big baby". And again, he's going to be difficult. I think it may be the Smith genes, not mine. hahaha! I go back Dec 12 to the peri to see how big he is, the Dr thinks they should induce early because of size. (Which was part of my plan all along.... hehehe) My regular OB (who will deliver) said this long before but now it's confirmed by two! We'll see if he will be a right before or right after Christmas baby... let the countdown begin!

Hello all! Long time no blog. I'll be again soon. We have an appt in Houston tomorrow and will hopefully get some 4D images again. I'll try to scam my way into the same room again. I have yet to figure out what format my belly pictures are in but I'm working on it! We've been diligently working on the house, baby room, deer lease etc the last couple of weeks. It feels like we will forever be working on something! Oh!! And Connie, middle name is Nicholas, like his daddy!
