Mr. 11 pounder!!!


Well my "little" man is now weighing in at about 11 pounds! He is a tank and still the sweetest thing ever. Although I know he will always be Mommy's boy, he has quite a bond with Ben already. It is so cute to see the two together as Jackson is so excited when Ben comes home and is so comforted by his Daddy. Not only do the two have such a close bond but they also still look so much alike it is really freaky! The older he gets the more he looks like him. He still has all his hair but we'll see if he keeps it or not.

It has been quite the challenge though having all three. I now know why they say that 3 is a crowd (-: I really don't get time to do much of anything let alone sleep. I am only able to write this as Ben is home and the girls are finally asleep. I'm sure things will get better once we get into a routine....or until Ben and I can get some sleep at least. Until then, I'm drinking lots of coffee and am able to see all the new infomercials (-: That's it for now. Here's what our little cubbster looks like now.

Happy Cinco De Mayo





























Well as I am sure most of you know, our little man is finally here! He had his first doctor's visit today and wouldn't you know it, he actually gained weight! He is now 9lbs. 4 oz. He is in the 90% for his weight and the 95% for his height. Turns out our little man is not so little after all. He is doing so well that Dr. Suzuki told us that a second appointment is not necessary and we get to skip to the 1 month check up. That's our little Jackson Lee! He really is the best baby in the whole world though. He never crys and sleeps quite a bit at night. He is very lazy and extremely passive. He loves to be warm and must be touched and cuddled at all times (-: He is a love bug for sure which mommy loves to pieces. As for daddy, he will not put him down and is more then excited to have his son here. We are all so happy! And now the good part.....pictures! Enjoy.

Mmmmmm Castrol Oil

So we had an appointment yesterday with a different doctor as McFadden is on vacation. I have to say that this doctor was a nut! At one point in time Ben and I looked at each other when she stepped out for a second in total disbelief that this women made it through medical school. She was very unwilling to discuss much of anything since she was not my normal doctor making this appointment completely pointless. Oh well......she did however say that when we do get to see McFadden on Monday, she would recommend bringing our bags along with us. I hope that is a good sign.....

In the mean time, I have decided to just take matters into my own hands with a little self inducing. I started off with the good old castrol oil. Apart from loving the feeling of drinking vegetable oil, I don't think I will be repeating that act too many times. I then proceeded to munch down on some bran muffins and pineapple. This has all been done today I might add. Well given the fact that I am able to write this little blog should give you a good idea as to how that has all been working for me.........yeah, it hasn't been working at all! Oh well, worst case scenario our doctor has told us that she does not want us to go much further then Monday. No matter what, this will be my last weekend without my little man! That is something to look forward to!
