1 Month


This is SUPER past due, but I still wanted to post a few pictures from Jackson's 1 month photo shoot. 

Jackson is getting HUGE!  I honestly do not know what he weighs right now (we are guessing around 13lbs) but my arms are getting tired by the end of the day, that's for sure!

A Few Facts About Jackson

Jackson is already wearing 3-6 month clothes!  We will be opening our first package of size 2 diapers tomorrow and he is starting to out grow the swing.  All of this due to the fact he LOVES to eat!  Jackson would (seriously) eat every 45 minutes if I were to let him.  Yes, I actually did let him do this for a while, but this mommy was going crazy.  We are working hard on spreading feedings out and also working VERY hard on trying to get Jackson to drink out of a bottle.  Jackson is working on holding his head up on his own, starting to really love the bath (just like his brother) and the smiles are officially underway!  

Sleeping has been a learning experience for all of us.  We started Jackson in our bedroom and planned to have him there for a few months.  Well, that has not gone as planned.  First of all, he needed to be elevated to sleep due to acid reflex, so the co-sleeper was not going to work.  Thanks to our fabulous neighbors, Jackson slept in the rock-n-play for a few weeks.  LIFE SAVER for this mommy and daddy...  He then started to not sleep well in that and we figured it was just best to try the crib.  BEST DECISION EVER!  Jackson LOVES his crib!  He is sleeping for roughly six hours after his last feeding of the day.  Tends to wake up for a quick feeding sometime between 2-3 and then wakes up again around 5:30/6.  Mommy and daddy are pretty excited about this!

Overall, the first month has gone well.  Lots of learning, lots of snugs and most of all, lots of brotherly love!
