3 Weeks!!

Jackson is three weeks old! He had his 2 week well check last week and, just like we thought, he is growing like a weed! He is up to a whopping 7 lbs. 14 oz.! The doctor was very happy with his weight gain and says he looks great overall:)

Jackson is a very happy, mellow baby. He still sleeps quite a bit, but each day he spends a little more time checking everything out. I love it when I talk to him and he turns his head toward me because he recognizes mommy's voice <3 He is also slowly but surely getting his days and nights in order. He's pretty good about waking to eat every three hours at night and going right back to sleep--I do emphasize pretty good because we still have looooooong nights!

We had some visitors last weekend. Heidi and Dwight came to visit and stayed with us on Friday night. We had a great time with them and Heidi was a big help with Jackson. Megan and Kyle came over Saturday to meet Jackson, we all had a great time visiting! Jackson also attended his first dinner party Friday night. We went out for Jessica's 30th birthday, and I have to say, Jackson was a perfect gentleman:) Jess also came over on Saturday to watch the Duck game, so we got lots of "Auntie Jess" time!


This weekend we plan to embark on our first road trip. We'll head down to my parents' house for the weekend, leaving Thursday to catch Alex's volleyball game Thursday night. Wish us luck!!
