Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Jake's very first Thanksgiving with the family...

Week 4

I can't believe 4 weeks has passed. Jake has grown so much the last couple of weeks. We took him to the doctor yesterday because the last few days he was really congested. We were worried it was allergic reaction to the cats but turns out to be just a minor cold. While we were there Jake was weighed again -- he gained 15 ounce in 10 days. He is progressing nicely.

His sleeping schedule seems to be getting better (at least for us). Just last night he slept for about 3.5 - 4.5 hours after each feeding. Yeah -- sleep for Daddy and Mommy.

Week 2

Hard to believe another week has gone by. Jake is 2 weeks old now. Funny how his due date is suppose to be in 2 days.

It's fun to watch Jake sleep -- he has so many expressions and makes funny noises.

Breast feeding is getting better. Not as painful but still no fun.

Jake has had his moments of unconsolable cries...usually at 4 or 5 a.m. in the morning. Regardless of what we do, he just cries and cries. Every time we think we've calmed him down we'd put him down to sleep, he would wake up and start crying again.

Still getting use to the idea of motherhood. Maybe it will hit me when Jake starts to talk.
