TWO MONTHS!

Hello Everyone!! I'm a little behind on this, but I promise I will do a better job! Our little Miracle at one day old :::

Let me start off with my Labor with Jayton: We went in on Monday August 1st at 6:00pm. We started fluids and something to help my cervix. Then Tuesday August 2nd, Dr.Flowers (my OB) came in and broke my water about 4:30AM! I started pushing at 6:46pm August 2nd, and had Jayton at 6:58pm! He was 7lb 15oz and 20 1/4 inches long! Boy my world was rocked! Everything went perfectly fine, except when he was born they had to take him off of me right away because he did swallow a lot of fluid and wasn't crying the way the nurses wanted! After a few minuets (what seemed like HOURS!) he was perfectly fine and back in my arms! THEN, the nurses noticed he wasn't gaining any color, so they once again took him from me and had to put him under a light to warm him up. After 30 minutes under the light, he gained color and we went to our recovery room!

The first month Jayton was home, I (just like any first time mom) was so nervous. I was always questioning everything, am I doing this right, is he getting enough food, is he getting too much food, should i wake him and feed him, does he have gas, is something hurting him..etc. But I slowly began to figure out what each cry meant and we began to get a routine and he slowly slept longer and longer! I started to feel more secure about being a mommy!

Every month just gets more and more fun! Jayton will be 10 weeks on Tuesday and I have NO clue where the time went! He is sleeping through the night, awake more, making cooing sounds, trying to sit up, smiling all of the time, and I LOVE IT! It is kinda sad he is getting bigger, but  I just love watching him grow! I am so blessed I get to stay at home with him, teach him things, watch that lightbulb go off! Like this morning for instance... he was laying in his crib staring at his mobile in his crib. I turned it on so it would spin & the music played, you could just tell he was overwhelmed with Joy! He smiled the biggest smile and kicking his feet and moving his hands like he was so happy! That makes me feel soo good to know he is happy! He is our little blessing. At his two month checkup he was 23.5inches long, and 13.5lbs! And he has NO problem eating,  as you can see!

I promise I will keep up with this from now on!!
