Milestones:
- Jack smiles =)
- Jack sleeps through the night! It's been about two weeks now {crossing fingers}. We put him down between 8:30 and 9, and he wakes up like clock work at 5:30 am! Eric and I are loving the sleep we're able to get now.
- Jack is able to hold his head up almost all the time! He looks so much older now that he's not curled into us when we hold him.
- Our big man had his first shots. He took them like a champ! He also weighs 13.3 pounds, and is over 23 inches tall. He's now on medicine for reflux - guess it wasn't the formula's fault after all! He's feeling much better. It tastes like peppermint, so now we have a baby with fresh breath!
{After his shots! Look at all the band-aids!}
As you curl your little fingers around mine, I realize all that I love about you.
Thank you for making our lives complete. Thank you for showing me a side of daddy that I never knew before. Thank you for your gigantic smiles, your squishy face when you're working on a #2, and your cuddles after a long night of sleep.
I love that you look like a baby version of Eric. I love your grunts and coos as you figure out your voice. I love that you take a little breather after a long stretch of nursing, as you grab onto my shirt and smile.
I am proud to be your mom. I am more in love with your dad than ever before. And, I can't even think about what life was like without you.
I love you, big man.
Mom
A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for.
