Good Morning..Jackson is 3 weeks old today!

Its Thursday morning and Jackson is 3 weeks old today, wow its gone by so fast. I thought I would post a few pics of Jackson in his cute little p.j.'s from this morning.  I cant wait until he gets a little bigger and can wear some of the other really cute pajamas we have for him, there is nothing cuter than a baby in pajamas. He was awake for awhile this morning, I read "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do you see?" and he was just staring at all the colorful pictures of the animals. It was really cute. Im looking forward to this new phase of him being more awake and alert and getting to play with him a little more. 

Just had a diaper change and very content!

Another Day in Paradise

So far Jackson has been doing great sleeping in his own room.  Good Lord, he must be going through a growth spurt because he is wanting to eat non-stop.  Here are a few recent pictures to quench the families need for daily photos.  Enjoy the one with his thumb in his mouth. Those who are not his parents may find this to be adorable, but for the mom and dad it strikes fear in us due to the fact that we both were chronic thumb suckers for a long time!

All snuggled up!

Hasn't perfected the technique of thumb sucking just yet. Going instead with the support of his left hand. 

The Big Day!!

Last night in his room went great. Mom and dad slept well, and Jackson was so content he decided that he was going to eat 4 oz at his early morning feeding. WOW!! Taylor was kind of freaking out thinking "should I be feeding this kid this much??" I guess they eat until they are full, he must be going through a growth spurt.

Since we didn't have the blog going when we first brought him home, we thought we would share some of our favorite photos from that big day. Enjoy!

Last day being pregnant :(

First Day of Blogging!

So we finally decided to start a blog, basically so we can show off our adorable new boy. Jackson was born two weeks and two days ago, Thursday April 9, 2009 at 3:00 pm weighing in at 6 lbs 10 oz and 20 in. long.  Since that blessed day, he has grown an inch and gained a pound. I guess you could say he loves to eat! We are so lucky, he is such a good baby. We are a little, well actually a lot sleep deprived, but other than that, loving every minute of this new and exciting life. 

Tonight is a big night for mom, its Jackson's first night in his crib :( Mom has gotten attached to having him in her room, but he seems to be doing fine on his own so far. This is definitely a parent issue, not a child issue! Ill post in the morning to let you all know how it went. Wish us luck!
