3 Months already?!!!!

Jack turned 3 months old on April 20th! Can you believe it?! It is so hard to believe it's already been 3 months. He is growing so much and is changing every day. Everytime we blink he has changed it seems. On his 3 month birthday I called the doctor to see if I could bring him in to get him weighed and measured for his baby book. They laughed and asked if this was my first baby! I said yes and they commented many new moms want their babies weighed every month with their first. I couldn't believe how big Jack was when we weighed him ---- 13 lbs. He was measuring at 24 inches in length! Such a big boy and good eater - up to 5 oz. every 3.5 hours. However he is sleeping from 9:00PM to 4:30AM without any wakeups! (crossing my fingers this continues).

Growing up so fast!!!!

Jack is developing and growing so fast it's almost hard to believe!!! At his last doctor's appointment (2 mos. checkup) he weighed 10lbs 12 oz and was 23.5 inches long!!! Jack is lifting his head completely on his own on his tummy and looks around the room even. He has started smiling and occasionally giggling.


Jack's First Smile - I actually caught it on camera!!!!



2 months old today! March 20,2012

Jack turned 2 months old on March 20 and it was a great day! Mommy (me) made a lemon cheesecake tart from the Martha Stewert show to celebrate. Unfortunately Jack had a doctor's visit that ended in 3 shots, but he did very well. Only cried for 3 minutes and calmed down with some cuddling from Mommy!!! We came home and he wanted to be in his swing....then he slept....he slept... and slept... and slept some more!!! Grandma Wurmnest and Aunt Jenna came down for dinner since Daddy was in Joliet for training and he even slept through their visit!!!

10 weeks old today! (Look - I'm Mike Wizowski!)

We have been spending a lot of time outside this week because it has been unusually warm for this time of year - 89 degrees on Sunday!!! We got the hammock out and rocked in it - Jack likes the hammock! We also bought a new jogger stroller for outdoor use and we LOVE it!! Jack and I try to go on at least 1 if not 2 walks a day (weather permitting)! Jack likes the outdoors and sleeps really well after being outside!

I love being outside on the hammock - even with this giant sun hat on my head!

Jack got his first pictures taken with a professional photographer - Lindsey K! She did Mommy and Daddy's wedding pictures. I can't wait to see how they turned out but I did get some pictures during the photo shoot on my camera to share until the professional ones come in! Here are some samples....

Easter Sunday is coming up quickly this week and Jack's Easter basket is full!!! We have his Easter outfit already and can't wait to see it on him! We did visit the Easter Bunny yesterday at the Hickory Point Mall and it was quite fun (for Mommy anyways)! Jack did very well and just kind of chilled out in the Easter Bunny's arms this year!
