Double Doctor Visit

We had our first double Dr. visit experience today. Weston had his 2 week check-up and Jackson had an eczema flare up. The visit went well overall!

Dr. Smart gave us some medication to help with Jackson's eczema which has really seemed to help. The flare up is most likely due to the increased pollen count this year. Pretty flowers = itchy child!

Weston is right on par with his growth. We also had a chance to talk to Dr. Smart about Weston's projectile spit-up. She went ahead and put him on Zantac, which should help with all that spit up and fussiness.

Here are Weston's stats @ 2 weeks of age:

Weight: 7lbs. 15.5 ounces
Height: 21.5 inches
Head: 37.5cm


A little brother lovin' after the appointment! Aren't they such sweeties!?!

Weston's First Bath

Weston had his first bath today! While he loved the water running on his head, he wasn't too fond of anything else! But he sure smelled sweet when we were through!


"The water feels so good!"

"Jackson helped Daddy put lotion on and dry me off!"

All clean and relaxed!

Bouncy Seat First

Enjoying my bouncy seat for the first time. It comes highly recommended, my older brother loved it when he was a baby!!!

Easter Madness


Easter this year was crazy! For some reason, I felt that it was absolutely neccesary for me to be home by Easter morning to be there for Jackson. So, even though I should have stayed in the hospital one more day (and almost came home without pain meds - apparantly pharmacies close for the Easter holiday - yikes!), Weston and I arrived home from the hospital around 9:30pm Easter eve.


I am not sure why I thought my presence was so important or would even be worth it. I was drugged and in pain, so the only part of the day I took part in was watching Jackson hunting eggs - from the couch!!! Oh well...


Thanks to Daddy and Grammy, Jackson got all dressed up and handsome for church (my nephew, Andrew and I apparantly have the same taste as he picked out the same suit for himself as I did for Jackson!). He went to church with Grandma and Paca and had a grand time. He sang loudly during the service and had a wonderful time hunting eggs with his cousins... well sort of hunting. Apparantly Jackson was quite picky with the eggs, picking each one up and opening it to evaluate its contents. If the contents were deemed "worthy," Jackson took it, if not, he tossed it aside! Too funny!


Thank you to all of my family members and husband who pulled off Easter lunch at our house while Weston and I were sleeping! Since it rained, the Easter bunny hid eggs upstairs. Weston and I made a short appearance for the hunt. The kids looked adorable!


The day was a ton of fun for Jackson, a lot of work for Trenton and a blur for me. It was a blessing to be home with our new addition and to have all of our family there to enjoy the day!

Jackson's New Sandbox

While Mommy and Daddy were still in the hospital with Weston, all the grandparents really stepped up to take care of Jackson. Opa and Oma spent Saturday morning with JCC and gave him an early Easter gift-a sand box!!! Jackson loves it!!! Thank you Oma & Opa!






Fun Times with Grammy & Pawpaw


Jackson had fun with Grammy and Pawpaw while Mommy, Daddy and Weston were still in the hospital. He went to the park, played outside and even talked them into taking him back to Chuck E. Cheese's!
