Jackson is 3 Weeks Old!

Time is flying by. I can't believe that Jackson is 3 weeks old today! We weighed him yesterday (our doctor told me to just drop in the clinic any time to weigh him) and he is 9 lbs 9 oz. So, he is definitely growing - and he has the chubby cheeks to prove it. He is doing a little better at night - sometimes going for 4-5 hour stretches between feedings. This week was my mom and Jeremy's mom's spring break, so I had lots of help! Thanks Mom and Gail - we had a great week! I was able to get out of the house and run some errands, and Jackson enjoyed the car rides.

So cute! A 4-5 hour stretch at night is great, I know that is exciting. Kelly

Melissa,
Jackson is so precious! I stumbled upon your blog from a comment left by Natalie Patterson on my blog. I love all your pictures!

New motherhood is so crazy/fun/sleepy/sweet and so much more! Ava is a year, and I can't believe all I've learned this past year. It's so fun, and some of the hardest work you'll ever do!

Enjoy all your cuddling with your sweet bundle.
Love,
Sunni

Hey there! He's so adorable...those stretches of sleep will get longer soon enough!

I always joke with billie that i haven't really slept in 5 years.

all i can say is to just soak up every minute. sometimes i'd love be back at the infant stage! (notice i said sometimes!)

love you,
shana
