Skyler meets his family

Skyler's first weeks/bath

One Month Old

I am continually gaining weight successfully. A glance in the mirror has revealed the beginning of an adorable double chin. Finally out of my newborn clothes, I am looking older each day and resemble my daddy even more. I love to smile and am learning so much as I view the world around me.

 I had dropped to 6 lbs on his 2 day check-up. But after successful feeding from momma I am now up to 6.95 lbs! My neck is strong and I can successfully roll unto my side from my back!

First Bath
I wasn't a big fan of the bath. Mom didn't know really what she was doing and boy I could tell. I got cold, and to be honest, I don't even know if she got all the right places. Silly mom :)

One week Old

2 Months old!

4-13-12: I went to see my doctor today and am now weighing a whopping 10 lbs 14oz! I assume this is due to all the cookie dough my parents are eating. I'm starting to notice the world around me a lot more, and I like what I see. My smiles are there to prove it! I'm also finally getting the sleep I deserve. My bedtime is between7-9, and I'm sleeping a good 5-7 hours before I wake up, only to go back to sleep for another 2-4 hours. Mommy seems to be in a pretty good mood lately since I've made this sleeping pattern change. Everyone wins!

3 months old!

5-17-12: Well I don't have another appointment with the doctor until 4 months, but I'm pretty sure I put on a few lbs. That makes me what?...about 12 lbs now! I am noticing more and more around me and it is awesome! All the colors, shapes, and noises. I'm even learning to grasp items in my hand. I have been playing with grandma vaughn's morraca. Although I can't quite control the movement so I hit myself in the head sometimes. I am in a good mood almost all day long, and I contribute that to sleeping through the night!  Yay! I'm getting more consistent and if I do wake up, it's only once.

4 months old!

6-28-12: Today I went to my 4th month checkup with Dr. Michelle Lyman. It turns out that I am still as healthy as ever. I heard mom and her make comments on my funny shaped head though, I guess I need to sleep on the other side more. I'm still breastfeeding and weigh 13.4 lbs! That's not as impressive as how fast I'm growing though, I am almost 24.5 inches tall now. :) I actually quite like the doctor, that is until she sent her nurse friend in who stabbed me in the thigh 3 times! Grrr... I really don't like that, but mom thinks its necessary so I do it anyways. I'm almost rolling over too, I have got my legs swung over and halfway on my belly, but my arm and upper body are whats struggling. I don't think it'll take too much longer though. I also love grabbing for things, especially my feet. I can pull them up pretty darn high. Overall I am one happy baby boy. I get 3 naps a day, and sleep all night long. Life couldn't be better! At least that's what mom says.
