1 Month Old...already

Obviously, I can't get over how quickly Leyton is growing and the fact that he is already 1 Month old (as of Sunday)-time has flown by. He has lost most of the hair on the top of his head and the rest has started to lighten up. He is alot more alert and has learned to grunt and takes full advantage of it :) He is still waking up 3 times a night to feed and is starting to get too long for the newborn clothing (however the 0-3 month clothes are still too big). Yesterday, my Mom's friend and awesome photographer came over to take Leytons pics-he did really well and only tee-teed on us twice :) The pics are ADORABLE and she did an AWESOME job. Below is a "taste" of the pics and if you go to the link below you can see the rest as well as some of her other work. Thanks again "Mina"!!!!

2 Week Check-Up




















Can you believe that my Baby Boy is already 19 days old? Last Thursday we went for his 2 week check up and found out that he has grown .5" (now 20.5" long) and weighs 7lbs 9 oz. He is quite the growing boy but is still wearing newborn clothing-I had to go out and purchase a few more outfits this past week-b/c everything he has pretty much starts at 0-3 months and they swallow him. While at the Dr. office he had to get a Hepatitus B shot and it broke my heart when he was crying from it-it is so hard to watch when they get poked and prodded.
Leyton is lifting his head quite a bit and has pretty much settled into a nightime schedule-we get up 3 different times to change his diaper, feed him and put him back to bed. He has had a couple of tummy aches-but we think we have it figured out and are using a Sensitive formula to help with that. We are learning to either nap when Leyton sleeps/naps or let Granna or Nana & Papa watch him while we nap :)
We have taken a few outings-visits to Granna's and Nana & Papa's and this past weekend he got to attend his first "party"-we went to one of my friends baby showers. We also went to Christina's for my Mom's birthday dinner and he slept the entire time!!
We are loving parenthood and can't get over how blessed we are to have such a perfect little boy!!!
