My "1st" Thanksgiving!! I kept Mom up all night last night!! My shoes were TOO BIG but they were too cute to pass up!!
I'm a Little Turkey!!
In my new bouncer BEFORE MY SHOTS!!!
WHAHHHHHH!!!
Those shots wore me out!!!!We had a big week starting off by getting his 2 month shots....OUCHIE!!! He did pretty good and thank goodness I had a fresh bottle ready for him so he could soothe himself!!
He weighed in at a WHOPPING 12 pounds 3.2 ounces and was 23 inches long!!! No wonder he is having to wear 3-6 month clothes now and why his "1" level diapers are getting tight!!! Momo's are now once a day or every other day...EWWWW!!!
We bought him a bouncer seat this week since he loves to kick and punch and he loves it ( usually for only 10-15 minutes )...short attention span at this age I guess!!
Lots more baby talk and smiles this week and he really knows his hands for sure...he rubs his eyes when tired, sucks on his hands and tries to hold his bottle!!
I also have been getting him out everyday so he will hopefully sleep better. We have gone shopping at the outlet store..which I think he thinks is boring since he passed out the whole time..that's why I need to have a girl next!! We have also been taking daily walks around the neighborhood too for fresh air!! And watching our neighbor put up 55,000...YES 55,000....Christmas lights on his house that is set to music!!! CRAZY!!!
This past week he has been FINALLY sleeping for at least 4 - 41/2 hours when I put him down but then the rest of the night is 3 - 2 hours!! Except for the night before Thanksgiving when he went back to his old schedule of waking up every 2 hours or so!!! So little man was very tired at my sister's house for Thanksgiving and ended up sleeping his way through dinner in my arms!!! I can't wait to give him rice cereal at 4 months so his little tummy can stay full longer!!!
For the first time this week I thought he was running a little bit of a temperature SO THE DAY HAS FINALLY COME FOR THE RECTAL THERMOMETER!! So I put him over my knee with his diaper still on and unfastened one side of the diaper to protect me and him and what do you know....he tried to squeeze his butt cheeks so tight so I could not enter!!! Good BOY!!!! But then when I did he started to momo when I was trying to hold it in there...EWWWWW!!!! So after a few minutes I decided to put him on the diaper changer and hold his legs up and do it that way....WRONG DECISION.....he started to momo AGAIN and PEE PEE starting flying everywhere on me and him so much so that I screamed and startled him so he began to cry and that was the end of that!!!! So I went and bought the Exergen temporal thermometer that they use at the doctor where you just run it across their forehead BUT it gave me different readings on the left and right side...VERY FRUSTRATING...so I called the doctor and talked to the nurse and she said RECTAL is best...so we managed to do it again ( over my knee with diaper on )with just a little MOMO this time...GEEZ!!!! She said no worries until it reaches 100.4!!
I was FINALLY able to go get my hair cut and highlighted...I was starting to look like a real worn out MOM!! So Ross took care of little man while I went to go feel human again....so I turned the radio up real loud and sang all the way to the hairdresser and back!!!! I know...I'm a nerd!!!
