Baby Pea

Every Tuesday Community North has a breastfeeding support group. Not only is it a great way to get some questions asked and hear what other women are concerned about but it's also a great way to meet new moms. At the class today moms dressed their babies up, Alex obviously went as a pea. Funny, he HATED the costume last night but didn't mind it one bit this morning.

Getting ready for a ride

This is for all those high school girls who think it would be "fun" to have a baby at such a young age. He does this almost every time we strap him into his car seat.

Bassinet

Well we got Alex in his bassinet for half the night last night. I have to admit, it made me nervous. Everything you hear about SIDS and blankets, positioners, etc. so I was up about 3 times to check on him. Once he woke up to eat we couldn't get him back in the bassinet so the car seat it was. Oh how crazy it is the things that excite me these days....

Sleep

Well we fed Alex at 9:00 last night, put him to bed and he didn't stir until 4. I can't believe we got 6 hours of consecutive sleep, I also can't believe he wanted to sleep that long. John woke me up around 2ish wondering where the baby was. He thought I had fallen asleep while I was nirsing him in the middle of the night and that Alex was asleep on my chest.

Weigh In

We went in for our weight check and we got the good news that Alex is at his birth weight. Yea! No more SNSing and I only have to pump in order to freeze for future use. Now we just need him to fatten up like most breast fed babies do.

Alex's first time on camera

I didn't realize I could take a video with my camera so I tried it out while Alex was in a good mood.
