6 weeks old

My 2nd Shot

Hanging out watching the arm of the couch
All smiles 6 weeks old!
A lot has happened in my life in the last week! On Wednesday I had my second Hepatitis B shot. I also got weighed and with my clothes on and a slightly wet diaper I was 12 lbs and 10oz! I know I have grown but I didn't think I was that big!:P Mommy and I have been going on walks every afternoon. We let Daddy come sometimes but usually leave after he goes to work. We have been going farther and discovering more of our neighborhood and have really enjoyed the changing colors of the leaves! It has been a little cold out when we go but Mommy bundles me up so I don't get too cold! On Thursday we went to get our first family pictures made. I was awake the whole time and even though I didn't smile we got some good pictures! Mommy took me to a consignment sale again and we got a few more good things. I was really hungry when we left so Mommy decided to feed me in the car, I got really hot and while I was trying to eat I spit up all my milk all over me and Mommy! Mommy turned some cold air on me and blasted me in the face to cool off. Then Mommy only had one outfit for me and it was a newborn size. Needless to say I have grown quite a bit and the outfit that was supposed to be long sleeved and long pants was 3/4 length sleeved and capris! Mommy and Daddy laughed at me but oh well at least I had clothes on! On Saturday Mommy and Daddy took me to a yard sale for a TV show called Clean House... I saw the famous people who are on the show and even though we didn't find any good things to buy it was fun to go to! We went to Chick-fil-A for lunch and Mommy discovered later on that night that I do NOT like it! (SORRY PAPA!!!) I spit up a lot and after I got it out I was fine! We went to church on Sunday and I was quiet the whole service! I went to Sunday School with Mommy and Daddy and everyone was excited to see me again and meet me! I went to lunch with my girlfriend (and our families) and then hung out with Mommy and Daddy! I had my 6 week old pictures made today and I did not want to cooperate. I was tired hungry but we got a few good pictures! Mommy got some good pictures of me smiling once we got home though! Well...until next week...

I'm 5 weeks old!

Ready for Church

So Aaron is now 5 weeks old! I cant believe how fast the time has gone! We are really loving having him in our house and are enjoying every aspect of being parents! He is a really good baby! He LOVES to eat... and wants to do it all the time! It can be hard on Mommy when she is trying to get things done and has to stop a lot and feed him or when we are out to eat or at church etc! We usually are just creative and find a place to feed him. I wish more places would have places for breastfeeding mothers... At target the other day we went into the FAMILY bathroom which should imply a chair or something for you to sit on to feed or for any other reason but there was nothing! A toilet and a changing table... Soo I thought about sitting on the toilet but then thought that would be too weird so we stood up... This gets to be pretty hard when you have a 10lb baby you are trying to hold onto for 10 min or so without anything to support yourself on! You would think that as long as people have been breastfeeding that places would have an area for nursing mothers! I guess we will continue to have to be creative with how we feed him!:) Tomorrow we go to the Dr for Aaron's second hepatitis B shot and see how big he has gotten in the last month! I can't wait to see how big he is now! I really am apprehensive about the next week... It will be my last week at home with Aaron... I will go back to work on November 2nd part time UNLESS Andrew gets his promotion before then! There is a possibility of that but until we know for sure I will be working from 8:45-12:15 M-F... It will be SOOO hard to leave him even if it is with his Daddy! anyway... He has now woken up and is hungry so I better go... Until next week....

Aaron Levi is HERE!!!

Heading home
One Day old
Right after he was born!
So I know its been a while but Aaron is here! He was born September 14,2009 at 6:35pm... He was 8lb 14oz and 20 1/4 in long. He is such a good boy! We are loving having him in our house! Nana and Papa were with us when he was born and it was great to have them to support us and help us out! They came back on the weekend as well as Kristy and Barry, Melissa, Emma, Luke and Caleb and Jeremy even made the long trip from South Dakota to see us! IT was a wonderful weekend and we really enjoyed having everyone at our house! Aaron was a little bit jaundiced but we tried to get him out in the sun ( when it wasn't raining) but we got about 12 inches of rain the week after he was born! The hospital even was surrounded by water so if he had been born a week later we would have had to take a boat to get home! :P During Aaron's third week of life his Oma and Opa and aunt Audrey came to visit from South Dakota. We were busy the whole week they were here going to many different places. Then Aaron took his first major road trip and we went to West Virginia for his cousin's birthday! He has already been to Georgia, Virginia and West Virginia! More than most people have been to! :) He is truly a blessing and we are loving having him in our life! I will try and update weekly on his life!
